How the mighty have fallen! Lee do you REALLY think you can get away with completely ruining the best newsroom in the biz and nobody is going to call you out on it? Have just a slight bit of integrity and don't involve your staff in BS like this.
Judging by the Tweets I doubt it was done on auto-pilot. Though it is possible through 3rd party software such as TweetDeck to schedule when a Tweet goes out. I would guess someone told the news staff they needed to Tweet about the show no matter what.
Last night's broadcast had a technical issue with Frank microphone, numerous script errors, stammers and false starts by the talent, several graphics with typos, and the dubious choice of making a story about a woman who lost her part-time job with Pier One because of her pregnancy the SECOND story of the whole cast. I feel for the woman, and I know there are important issues, but it didn't rank quite that high, I don't think. The story that followed THAT should have been higher. And the flower overall was...well, non-existent. KTVU used to be as professional as the national networks. Today it looks like Fresno's weekend cast.
One show I have never and will never watch. The Democrat's that fill their viewing audience must be waning for them to start tweeting about it. Have to LOVE the liberal sheep. Go buy Apple products next because you'll automatically be cooler! Hurry! Then buy Samsung and don't forget to tweet about it and put it on your facebook page! Sheep.
And your point on the age of the earth is? Just because there was no-one around to document what was going on back then makes everything in the bible incorrect?
Such a narrowminded person you are. Such a shame.
P.S. I hope you are able to get out more and hopefully one day find a wife....or husband....whatever floats your boat.
I don't happen to watch that show either but you must be pretty hard up to try and make something political out of who does or doesn't watch a TV show!
Wow am I naive! Out here in Monterey I've been making fun of Marc Cota Robles and his hot wife jazmine vile on KION for giving IDOL updates DURING newscasts as though it was breaking news. I see KTVU is now trying to lower the bar and be as bad as third rate stations. Indeed how far the mighty have fallen!
I get a kick out some conservatives. They like to say that "Liberals want everyone to think like they do, and act like they do."
I would say that that description better fits a conservative way of thinking. FYI, the definition of 'Liberal' in Websters' Dictionary: "Broad minded. Tolerant of different views and standards of behavior in others."
The definition of Conservative from the same Dictionary?
"In favor of preserving the staus quo and traditional value and customs against abrupt change."
"All Updates All The Time!" Som Ting Wong.
ReplyDeleteShow must suck if they have to do that.
ReplyDeleteGo fuck yourself KTVU. "There's only one insufferable 2"

ReplyDeleteAmerican Idol updates? Expect Ronn Owens to give his full attention.
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly why the news business has become a complete joke. Well done Lee!
ReplyDeleteGood Lord. Report some actual news already.
ReplyDeleteCredibility goes out the window when you've got news reporters tweeting this stuff. I think the snot got to Heather's head...
ReplyDeleteI wonder if this is auto generated or just a means by KTVU or its owners to curry favor with them.

DeleteIt's one thing to ruin the brand but the JAVA staff needs to remember this will follow you FOR EVER. Twitter is permanent.
ReplyDeletewow, talk about exploiting – and discrediting – reporters's reputations. Way WAY wrong Mr Rosenthal!

ReplyDeleteTo busy with tweeting Idol and cat fights in the newsroom all led by Alfred E. Neuman pathetic

ReplyDeleteThe Earth is 4.54 billion years old, not 6,000.

I rest my case!
I am impressed but not shocked. Even a conversation about American Idol turns political. You people really need to get out more often.
