Eat News 4745 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Tragedy in Vegas and your making jokes. Cheap flights and Hooters Hotel as to why stations sent reporters. Hey ... It's fact baby. Cheap flights...cheap rooms. That's how this business works. But of course you wouldn't have a freaking clue unless I told you. So toss me another one... I like playing with you.

cna247 174 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Seriously dude/dudette. STFU. No. If you don't want to hear the truth, then read past my posts or hit ignore. The kids say "sick" is the bombdiddy. Maybe you could ask another user where the "ignore" button is. Now that you have ducked my responses I ask you this... Are you over 18...because I don't think you are mature enough to be in these forums. You have proof of age? I know where the ignore button is. You can't hear the truth so you want me to ignore you? Sorry, but the ignore button works both ways. I did not duck your responses. I just said I didn't have the time (unlike you) to go through the gazillion posts you make a day to find the posts. I did promise to point out future offensive posts which I've already done. As for my age, you think I'm not mature? Yeah ok, I'll take that with a grain of salt since it's coming from someone who pretends to be a shark and thinks everything in life is a joke. Hey ... It's fact baby. Cheap flights...cheap rooms. That's how this business works. But of course you wouldn't have a freaking clue unless I told you. So toss me another one... I like playing with you. I never said your pricing was wrong. I said your comments were inappropriate. Hooters Hotel? I'm not sure what message you're trying to send with the video.

24994J 5585 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I never said your pricing was wrong. I said your comments were inappropriate. Hooters Hotel? He's not wrong, though. It is less than 2 blocks from the scene, and is priced $40-50 cheaper per night (at minimum) than any other lodging in the vicinity. Let's face it, if you're sending a reporter, you're not going to be shelling out $80+ per night when there's a serviceable $30 option. You're the one making things inappropriate by suggesting that the 'Hooters' moniker is crude.

ColDayNews 438 Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 Tragedy in Vegas and your making jokes. Cheap flights and Hooters Hotel as to why stations sent reporters. You have a sick sense of humor. A sick sense of humor is better than NO sense of humor... you need a sense of humor in this business. You lack that. STFU.

DonDonP1 118 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 NBC is back in breaking news mode to cover the Trumps' visit to a Vegas hospital. CBS and ABC are in breaking news mode as well. Yes, the phrase "breaking news" is synonymous to the phrase "special report." UPDATE: Seattle's KONG is simulcasting NBC's breaking news coverage alongside KING 5, followed by a brand-new Days of Our LIves.

He was trying to be funny. Don't justify his inappropriate comments Griswold. A sick sense of humor is better than NO sense of humor... you need a sense of humor in this business. You lack that. STFU. Glad you agree he has a sick sense of humor. But sorry, I'd rather have no sense of humor. Just because I find no humor in jokes about tragedies, doesn't mean I don't have a sense of humor. I'm not in this business either. Why do people assume that everyone here is? And as for the STFU, I see you are just as immature as A3N. You're another one that posts here a gazillion times a day. You all need to find other hobbies too. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15968-vegas-coverage/page/4/#findComment-185582 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that many in the business probably has to have somewhat of a sick and or dark humor to be able to keep some sense of sanity when covering tragedy, I'd rather have that than no sense of humor at all. And for you cna247, just chill out. This is a message board on the internet, and we are just here talking about coverage.

Darius22 122 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 This is what happened in Sacramento. KCRA had people from NBC special report and Today show. KXTV had people from ABC Special report. KOVR had reporters from CBS this morning and CBS Evening news. KTXL had Shepard Smith From Fox News but also had to cut to Local coverage. KMAX had Local coverage from KOVR and Good Day by 4AM. UPDATE: KCRA sent Brian Heap down at the scene. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15968-vegas-coverage/page/4/#findComment-185601 Share on other sites More sharing options...

For one thing, I've been to Mohegan Sun in MA/CT -- and found the shops more interesting than the gambling areas.

You can't hear the truth so you want me to ignore you? Sorry, but the ignore button works both ways. The truth is NOTHING was offensive to you...or you would be able to articulate that.

But It's close to everything and it's an "easy in easy out place" as far as parking and cabs go. I guarantee you there are at least 5 TV crews from socal staying there right now. Easy sattruck parking too! Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15968-vegas-coverage/page/4/#findComment-185633 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy sattruck parking too! I haven't been to Vegas in about 3 years but the last time I was there, i'd say 50% of the casinos needed remodeling. The only decent/clean ones were Aria, Bellagio and Caesar's Palace. Everything else was dirty and worn out. Given that there's surge pricing on the weekends, it's no surprise that some of the outlier hotels have cheap rates during the week. Which like you said, made it easy for the So Cal news stations to send their own [multiple] crews. The fact that KNSD sent 3 reporters from the NBC side and 1 Telemundo reporter is surprising.

Eat News 4745 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I don't mind if the guy don't like my sense of humor. But for every sad lame joke it tell, I try to balance it out with some fun or useful morsel of something. What bugs me is that he uses multiple ID's and only complains about people here. Seriously cna247 Use the ignore button on me and you can block all my offensive and inappropriate post. But if you insist of bagging on me then no prob.. I will just continue to point out that your a Dick. So say goodnight Dick.
