@king5news.com.web.brid.gy why is this station glorifying female celebrities using a Bezos aircraft to fly into space? It should be calling out this Trump regime every day. Shame on you. #king5news

My middle school years: 50% 5pm local news #King5News and 50% #Batman animated series (basketball on our hoop in the driveway in between)

90s was a *very* underrated decade.

(Also, OK Soda & grunge music.) 🤌

Local news got jokes tonight... 🤣

This is another reason why I love #King5News of Seattle.

I grew up watching it in the 90s. Dennis Bounds & Jean Enerson on 5 o'clock news every night. Their motto "We Stand for Truth" shows daily.

Also, a lot of their anchors/reporters are local. Joyce (left) from Tacoma and Kelly from Kirkland.
