jdcnow 14 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 These last few days have been, by all accounts, the worse for TV news. This comment got me thinking about what has happened this year: - The fire at ABC 7 in New York - Notable personalities coming down with cancer. (well wishes go out to Marvin Zindler's family and KTRK, and GMA's Robin Roberts as well) - Now 2 terrible accidents involving helicopters within a week (the KNXV/KTVK crash in Phoenix and the KDFW crash yesterday morning). I'm trying to grasp for answers as to why now? Why all at once? Why, period? Your thoughts, please... Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add another member to the infamous D-List. He should really be ashamed at himself, people died this year. Does this mean anything to you? Probably not. Lost too many brain cells to realize what he is doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad 276 Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 To get things back on topic, I would have to concur that this year is perhaps the worst year I've ever really experienced as perhaps a notable year for the deaths of amazing TV News personalities. I believe ABC and their affiliates suffered the most, since most of the deaths occured from ABC owned and affiliated stations, but we can't rule out the others as well. Overall, its a very tragic year thus far. Lots of notable personalities just dead, without expectation. -Vlad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
