THE USUAL BANALITY: OK, yes, it's hot. Doesn't matter the station. It's all in the standard handbook.Reporter A: "Hey, looks like you guys are tryin' to beat the heat! How's the ice cream?"
Two blond women with bratty kid: "it's cool, but OMG, so hot!"
Reporter B: "Are you beatin' the heat?"
Token Asian couple: "Uh, we're tryin' but darn, it's so hot!"
Reporter C: "Hey, you guys got the right attitude! --How's it goin'; are you hot?"
Two convenient Black men in early 30's: "Yeah, it's hot, but you gotta deal with it."
Back to the studio.
Ha-ha, spot on Rich, and I live in downtown Walnut Creek...
ReplyDeleteStupid, banal, patronizing reporting. Are you serious with this crap, Rich.
ReplyDeleteYes, It's hot. You are making it as much a non news story that you complain about.
Meanwhile, here in Concord, our power was out.
ReplyDeleteHow does KPIX continue to keep going as a news operation? As bad as KRON is, KPIX is much worse.
ReplyDeleteHot could also be construed as "sexy lady," as in Gangnam Style, as in Kristen Sze today. Her "power" was played perfectly, unstoppable!
ReplyDeleteThe Women are the News.
Almost as stupid as the media sending the trucks up to Baxter when it snows in the winter time.
ReplyDeleteCompared to hearing about poop in San Francisco this is like a breath of fresh air.....
ReplyDeleteBroadway Plaza and that fountain are the absolutely hottest spot in Walnut Creek (possibly all of Central Contra Costa County) on summer days. It is also very pleasant, parts are shady, there are great places to eat nearby, a free shuttle from BART, and the people are polite and well behaved. It is a plum assignment to see what civilization in the Bay Area looked like before liberals got their hands on Oakland and San Francisco and trashed them both. We out here in the suburbs don't envy you, but apparently it isn't one of those vice versa things.
ReplyDeleteWell, I watched both PIX and KTVU last night. Didn't see one Walnut Creek "It's hot out here" report. I'm bummed.
ReplyDeleteYou're a bigger racist than I thought - and since you're a socialist that's saying something!
