Message Name: Hurt themselves?

In Reply To: Even worse, at the end of Sinclair's corporate newscast in Buffalo, there's a 30 second final look at weather. As bad as their performances were on their two previous weather segments, surely by 10:57 or so, the Buffalo producer should have been on the phone to Hunt Valley screaming his/her head off about the need to update the weather, at least at the very end of the show. Of course, not a peep. The same out-dated stuff that was fed in about 9:45PM. So, this was not just a Baltimore failure but the failure of who was in charge of the Buffalo broadcast. The fish rots from the head. WB49 seriously hurt itself last night.
Message: No, Sinclair hasn't hurt itself. It's figured out a way to do news CHEAP, and that only helps them. In their eyes, saving money is more important than saving lives. So I guarantee you the Sinclair heads don't give a darn about what happened in Buffalo...the only thing that matters to them is selling space. Doing news is just about creating a little filler between commercials! Only a matter of time before other news companies start beaming down their weather. A lot of places have already axed their sports...
