Right. Or as we know them, Jeff-Pilot. Thanks.
The "On Your Side" thing is something a lot of TV stations use -- not necessarily ones owned by the same company. As they say in TV, there are no new ideas, only new audiences. In other words, someone had an idea and a lot of other "borrowed" it.
To exlurker -- I would generally be the last to claim media bias unless I really believe it exists in a given story because I worked in TV newsrooms for many years. However, if there really is something unfair in reportage, I'm not adverse to pointing it out -- and have on occassion on these boards.
A final word about KAKE. For a medium market station, this is one with an excellent reputation. I've worked with several people who came from there and they were all top notch.
