In this week's The Outcue, Assistant News Director Justin Mitchell talks with anchor/reporter Madison Tromler, who speaks about the National Transportation Safety Board hearing this week in East Palestine, discussing what caused the February 3, 2023 train derailment and why the vent-and-burn was a botched decision.

The discussion examines the key moments from the day's nearly 8-hour final report that are quickly processed and disseminated to our viewers and readers online and how a reporter's know-how helps identify key moments and findings.

The Outcue is the term for the last few words of a news story before it's over. We know that the end of what you see on television is often only the beginning of the story. This is The Outcue.
