You read stories about local celebrities

We track what people are looking at on our Web sites each day. It’s pretty easy, usually, to know what stories will drive traffic. Crime and accidents usually take top billing. And local TV personalities. Take the story today on former TV anchor Mimi Murphy. Murphy, who anchored WIFR-23 news for several years, filed a lawsuit against the station’s parent company. Hands down, the Murphy story is the No. 1 story on rrstar.com today. Next closest is this one, more than 1,000 page views behind.
Two recent stories on former local TV people were top traffic generators, too. We had this story on Heather Pick, former WREX-13 anchor. Pick is now in Columbus, Ohio. And this one on Randy Salerno, who died in a snowmobile accident. Salerno got his start at WIFRÂ and eventually ended up in Chicago.Â
