Except for the Texas stations, all the top 10 markets face the same crazy union rules. If you think 3 times cost is crazy? San Francisco labor and union cost also far exceed normal.* In addition, you must hire X number gays, X number trans ,X number disabled, X number of drug addicts, homeless, beggers ,3 legged chickens , pink unicorns, and 6 rescue pets. *Based on official guesses by the Eatnews institute of Destitute, Fl.

He was an honorable man, with many fine friends...he will be missed.

But a vast majority of the news employees skew left.....far left. Maybe Sinclair had a "come to Jesus" moment after the election, and now they want to be unbiased and only report the truth. Just maybe they are "born again" and just want to be truthful and loved by all. Maybe they changed...maybe they are new and improved. Naaaaawwww... Make no mistake that video was directed to Sinclair news employees as a warning to play by the "rules" according to Sinclair. It's their sandbox, and they get to make the rules. We are just going to have to accept that 99.9% of the news outlets have a slant. "Slant" is now considered part of the demo... "Sell the slant" as they say at MSNBC, FOX and CNN sales divisions.

But you still have your sanity...and you can probably piss clean. Plus we all love you RKO !

Guess someone is looking for some fast cash for maybe a shiny new bike...or a basketball...or a new dolly.

I'm sure in just a few days we will all learn that Mr. Lewis had his account hacked. That will explain all those "likes" to the his angry netizens.

History will show that nobody ever made a profit from telling the truth. Eat News.

The news media is obsessed with social media because it's free. Free to poach from, free to quote without attribution, free to use as an "unnamed source"...Free to post promo's, free to post opinions. One BIG free for all. Which is great if you have no funds to actually get off your asses and really cover a real story. Why take weeks investigating something when you can just poach the websites of your political slant. The media now "conspires" to impress friends because they are too lazy (social media) and too ashamed to truly cover their "friends". The media has become fat and lazy...broke and bloated. Let some fail. There are some budding no-biased news outlets kicking ass each day. They have small loyal followings and are becoming gems in a tainted media world. If you look around...you will find them. You must however have an open and very realistic mindset.

Not to be confused with Red Star 3 http://www.northkoreatech.org/2014/12/30/red-star-3-0-desktop-finally-becomes-public/

Holy Lost Luggage! They should have an entire baggage claim area named after them.

The Sh%$ is about to get real funny. Who do you think will run off to Federal Court first?

Yes. It goes all the way back to the days of radio. We could trot out Amos and Andy.

Unfortunately many ethnic groups find the "W" and "K"s in the FCC call signs to be offensive. One "K" is only 2 more ""K's" away from KKK. The letter "W" is considered "code' for White or White people. This is why you see these long local web names filled with platitudes. "ilovemylocalsandiego10news.com" just makes one feel so much better inside as we start our busy day.

I can see it now... (Murrow flips) "The Bold ...and the Now" ...a news soap ...

Ummmm She has been dead for 7 years. I saw it on Infowars.

Disney locked out all NABET/CWA union workers in the winter of 1998. All ABC O&O's It was a giant friggin, messy long labor dispute.

The last time WABC had in-field security was during the 1998/1999 ABC lockout. Security cost money, and they also need transportation cuz you really don't want big fat bubba stinking up the live truck, and taking the jump seat. And to be totally realistic... The cabbies and delivery drivers of NYC and most big cities put up with 10 times the bullshit that a TV reporter does. You don't see them asking for private security. Lets face it... The WDBJ shooter would have NOT been stopped by an unarmed security guard. The guard would have been a victim also. And let me save you all from the argument about un-armed security guards and TV stations.... A station would NEVER assign an armed guard to a regular security detail for the fear that they would shoot someone. LIABILITY my friends.

Some TV station should investigate this.

The offense is a simple battery. In NYC it's a simple desk summons, and that's only if the victim want's to file a complaint. Does anyone really think WABC want's him to pursue this any further. Disclaimer: I am not licensed to practice law in the state of New York.

Overall TV viewership is up...way up! OTT, streaming , nteflix, slapface, tablets, smartphones.... the networks get pieces of it...nobody is hurting. Trust me... It's just shifted, and the chase is on.

Depends on what show you are talking about. GMA and Today MAY have dropped as much as -13% whereas CBSTM was only down -4 %. No one source has definitive numbers on the viewership drop...so it's best to use the many, many different available sources.

Oh crap... Here we go.... (I sense the "L" word is going to apply.)

That's how you break a hip.

Oh and what do you want to bet the old celebs "go off" tonight and get all stupid and drunk...and the there will be the tweets... OH GOD THE TWEETS!!!~! Order some pizza for the newsroom cuz it's gonna be a looooong night.

Well the kids on the reef tell me those push alerts are a big deal. It's all about "Mommy Dollars"..."mommy attitude" and "social media mommy". Holy sardines it gets annoying. I agree on the ratings thing, I would also add that there may be the Megan factor creeping into her head and she is worried. The hens need to nest...lay out straw...drink some wine...and get ready for Ms. Megan. Ya think they all may be walking on eggshells??? (cluck, cluck, crack)
