TV 26 needs to stop with all

TV 26 needs to stop with all of the breaking news crap, a story two days old is no longer breaking. You got to feel bad for that morning weather guy, does anyone really watch their "morning show" any longer? Even the sports on the evening newscast is laughable.They say they cover the Gamblers but really when was the last time they had someone from Milwaukee drive up and cover a game.

Do you all remember the BOB drinking game from the Newhart show, I found out it works with TV 2 Cami Rampson, every time she stumbles in a newscast you get to take a drink, usually good for one to two beers a broadcast.

Steve is one of the "good"

Steve is one of the "good" guys. As I stated earlier, it almost seems like he turns on/off the camera, probably is sweeping floors, doing windows, and emptying waste receptacles and however else Journal Broadcasting can mis-use his skills. He is talented, and WTMJ is just making our talent pay for the faults of their own Milwaukee-based financial problems. Quite, frankly, my dear, who gives a damn about Milwaukee local news ?

The biggest thing that needs

The biggest thing that needs changing is WFRV TV-5's weather maps, radar, and graphics. Their weather radar and graphics are the worst of the "Big Three" in Green Bay. WBAY TV-2's are the best.
Overall, though, it's WGBA TV-26 that needs the makeover, which I hope includes a LOT less sensationalism.

And, dontcha just love those

And, dontcha just love those attention-getting sound bites between their stories (which are yesterday's "Breaking News", but which are now stale updates to the "Breaking News")? It's too bad that WTMJ has imposed their cutbacks on us in this market.
Who (in the Green Bay/Fox Cities) really cares about the local Milwaukee news in the morning slot ?
And Steve Frazier looks like he probably has to turn on/off the camera when he's doing the A.M. weather. Maybe they have him doing light janitorial work between the weather reports, too.
What was once, to me, a good local morning station, has become a big nothing carbon copy of WTMJ.
Shame on The Journal Company !

Keith: It looks good to me. Obviously a great improvement over what it was. I like the colors, the bug on the right with the simple temp and time, the panning out, and the text scroll at the bottom....
TvBoy: Damn, For as long as it took to get that thing launched, I was pretty disappointed. Not that impressive. Better than the last set, but not worth the price paid.
