I say this with as much respect as I can possibly give you: I think this is a really dumb comment.

KTVK, 10 p.m. news, late '80s / early'90s: And a 1997 clip from KTVK's Tonight Arizona, which is what the 10 p.m. news was known as then:

THIS!! Now, WTOL is "spilling the tea" on the now-viral video. http://www.wtol.com/2019/03/28/its-time-spill-tea-wtols-cringe-worthy-video/

Oh, dear. How old are you and why do you give a care about Mandy??

How old are you?

These folks do not deserve all the hate they're receiving. This is not an actual newscast, but instead a video made for the school district - to help with a social media campaign "encouraging students to do well on their tests." It's no different than some of the 'funny' promos created to promote newscasts. It isn't abnormal for a local news station (or its personalities) to attempt humor. Look at the quasi-journalists on the air past and present....Robin Swoboda, Bob Herzog, Kristen Hampton. They all have a "schtick" that isn't for everyone - but they stay employed (or keep getting new jobs) because...on some level, it resonates with the target demo. I feel badly for these folks - but judging from how Melissa Andrews engages with folks on social media...she won't be taking the s***.

They definitely need to work on the news presentation too. Basically go the "opposite" of WKYC and Tegna without getting political or rough.

Looks quite nice. That horrible Cleveland 19 logo needs to go.

Noticed this morning they put the 7 day forecast on the front of the news desk.
