  1. Well, you do need to know who the father is before he burns to a crisp in a brush fire, in the unlikely event that you would inherit something. So, you go, KRON.

    1. Another good one. Hope the knee gets out of the way of the fire. Naw, not smart enough... Too bad, see ya.

    KRON would rather cover Darya playing "Slap The Ham" than anything relevant.

  5. KRON was remiss.

    All the best to the residents in the Oakland Hills, and to the fire (and other emergency) personnel who are addressing the situation. Sadly, 1991 will always serve as a reminder of how severe the fire risks can be in that area.

  6. I can't believe that radio news station KCBS airs KRON4's news ads regularly including Inside Edition & Entertainment Tonight. Why would KCBS to this???

    1. Because KRON pays for it, that is why. KCBS is not going to turn down a paying advertiser. Silly.

  7. It is Radnich's fault! There, I posted it for Stan so he can go on to bigger things.

  8. KRON 4, pointless news. Reporters holding a camera and mic to get the news just to cut cost. Sharing a building, teaming with KGO 7 to save cost. And, someone mention Darya, wonder what she will perform next time to make news funny.

  10. I am still trying to figure out why people even watch the local broadcast news. Breaking news with live pictures like this are the only reason I can think of. But how often does that happen? And one usually finds out via another digital channel first that it is happening and then you turn on the TV. Seriously, why watch KRON or any local newscast for that matter?
