I don't know what to say about this. People who were involved in television during the golden age were real characters. On a nostalgia site, former station employees tell the story about how one local sportscaster would signal one of his groupies he was coming over after the 11 pm news by clicking his pen on TV during the sportscast. One evening, the anchorman grabbed the pen from him before he could signal his date over the air. The local weathercaster was known for occasionally bringing bimbos on the air to do the weather with him. Those days were fun and television was interesting to watch. It was a lot like radio used to be. It's now corporate and that's why broadcasting is about as interesting as walking into a Sears store. Walking on her hands sounds goofy, but at least she showed some personality. This one's kind of amusing too: http://www.mediabistro.com/tvspy/watch-providence-reporter-demonstrates-what-to-do-when-you-see-a-bear_b97225

Swoboda - Polish for ‘freedom’, a technical term in the feudal system for a freeman, i.e. a peasant farmer as opposed to a serf. Also svoboda and sloboda in other Slavic languages!

WOW! Now that is unbelieveable.

Maybe not, but they already have the resources so why not be Indy's 24-hour news channel (at least in the off-hours)? Radio isn't there anymore and mid-market newspapers are a shell of their former selves, so why not play to your strengths? Better to have 'round the clock news than Jerry Springer and Rikki Lake as filler, IMO. In fact, I wonder why more stations don't use one of their subchannels and just run news 24/7. All you have to do is run it on a loop, with live weather maybe.

Hey don't be knockin' Channel 6. Kendrick was a little stiff at first, but now he's eased into his role. You can tell he's loose and enjoys being there. Kendrick was a great hire. IMO. I didn't think so at first, but he grows on you. Kelly and Adam what's his name are also great hires. They actually have real meteorologists and a real weather staff there now. By the way, I was at the Chipotle in Grandview one evening. Kendrick was sitting at one of the window seats eating dinner with his laptop. I didn't want to bother him, but I was tempted to say something nice about the work he does.
