I'm a Youngstown native living in SoCal. Didn't recognize anyone in CNN's piece.
All kidding aside there's currently at least a half foot of snow on the ground per my family's word so they used stock footage of the city in the piece.
Which was unkind by the way because the Rust Belt always looks "cleaner" with a nice blanket of snow over it.
Also, didn't I tell you folks I was from a shthole myself and there's nothing wrong with that? Just a fact. No reflection on me. Did you see the opening?
Shthole status confirmed.
