tim boyum,
“Capital Tonight” host for Spectrum news

Tim Boyum may have grown up in Minnesota, but he has always been a UNC-Chapel Hill fan at heart.  So it’s not shock that Tim agreed to move to North Carolina before ever stepping foot in the state.  Since moving here, Tim has focused on delivering a fair and objective look at North Carolina’s politics and the many ways in which these stories affect out daily lives.  Tim is recognized as one of the top capitol reporters in the country.
