Ten seconds into Dennis O'Donnell's sportscast, the server went down. Consequently, O'Donnell had to throw it to a commercial.
Oops.
Then, after coming back, he and the other anchors had to awkwardly talk for about two minutes before signing off.
This embarrassing episode was just the latest to beset KPIX.
The night before they ran out of time in the sportscast and--before O'Donnell could even get through the Giants' highlights, they were forced to go to commercial.

As long as they don't go to commercial while Kristy Siefkin is on, I'm good!
ReplyDeleteI saw the botched Thursday night show. Good to know they really ARE still doing the news live! But I already knew that since I've been in studio behind the cameras when they did the news as a visitor and crew member.

I happen to catch both newscast, I thought I'd had to much wine, the Giants blunder was really strange. When the sever went down that was just shitty..

Fascinating posts like this are why I come to this site.
ReplyDeleteYet another reason why I watch Larry Beil and Channel 7.
