Why Boise news anchors keep leaving

Boise’s favorite TV faces seem to be vanishing faster than ever, and it’s not just your imagination. KTVB, the city’s top station, just lost its fourth on-air personality this year, sparking a wave of speculation among viewers. Some wonder if there’s drama behind the scenes, but insiders say it’s all about Boise being a smaller market—reporters often move on to bigger cities. Still, it’s tough for longtime locals who grew up watching familiar anchors become community legends. What do you think: Is Boise just a stepping stone, or should stations do more to keep their talent? #Entertainment #TVSeries #Boise

Mattress Land closes all Idaho stores

Mattress Land has quietly shut down all its Idaho locations after its parent company filed for bankruptcy.

With mattress sales dropping over 11% in the past year and prices expected to climb, it’s no wonder people are holding off on big purchases. How do you feel about fewer mattress stores in town? Is this a sign of shifting shopping habits, or just the start of more local business changes? #Business #LocalBusiness #Boise

Boise gas bills could drop this fall

Lower natural gas bills might be on the horizon for Boise residents and small businesses, thanks to a new proposal from Intermountain Gas. If approved, most folks could see a small decrease starting October 1—about 12 cents less per month for homes and 6 cents for small businesses. However, larger industrial users would actually pay more. The company says these changes reflect shifts in gas and storage costs, not profits. The public can review and comment on the proposal before it’s finalized. What do you think—will this make a difference for your household or business? #Business #Industry #Boise
