I have a good friend that works at FSB-- and even I can't watch.
It's awful. It's scare news. And here's a news alert!!! for management--Viewers aren't that stupid. And eventually, they tune out that the urgent crap you feed them today isn't any different than the same urgent crap you freaked them out with a year ago.
And no, my friend who works there can't respect herself either. Morale is low, because the employees are forced to do lame teases that they know are unethical. |

WFSB's coverage yesterday of storms, tornado watches, etc in northwest CT was laughable. I was home, personal day, storms expected all day....Newsradio 88 left little to the imagination on the drive from the city....WFSB got hammared...Bruce de-somebody got cut off in mid sentence when yaking about the impending electrical storm predicvted by every doppler in the hemisphere for approx 4-5p...WTNH had their wx guy LIVE...WVIT same. FSB...got their asses handed to 'em.
However -- they do on most big stories...it's an updated version of Action News....if it's a fender bender it's on 'Eyewitness News.' If it's imp. to you it's not on FBS...p[robably VIT.
Just a footnote...parts of CT are actually in the NY ADI...however, you'd think that news from Greenwich, Stamford and contogious towns didn't exist despite the fact that most of the power brokers live there, most of the wealth is centered there and more Fortune 500 companies HQ'ed there than exist in Houston, TX!
Rest in peace FSB
