The Calamity Known as KCBS Ignores Calamity on Richmond-San Rafael Bridge; Traffic Misery Infects 740 AM/106.9 FM (Again)

FOR THE BETTER PART of almost TWENTY HOURS, the Richmiond-San Rafael Bridge was SHut Down.

The shutdown began on Friday and caused a MAJOR traffic calamity that affected THOUSANDS of Bay Area commuters--the fact the closing took place on a Friday only made matters worse.

Talk about worse? Let's talk KCBS.

Once again, the DAILY EMBARRASSMENT that is KCBS was ASLEEP at the wheel. Non-engaging, non responsive, DYSFUNCTIONAL KCBS officially DID NOT report on the bridge shutdown, not a once.

KCBS and their brain-dead wonders relegated this matter to its traffic anchors and put the onus on them. ALL DAY and NIGHT, no less! A major news event that wreaked havoc was essentially IGNORED by the so-called "Bay Area's "all-news" leader.

HA! HA HA .

KCBS traffic anchors chose to utilize the all familiar "police activity" It's part of the KCBS play book.

After all, this is SOP on KCBS.

Imagine this: to go a full almost 24 hours and go silent on a major news story and IGNORE IT, treat it as more a nuisance and not as the NEWS STORY IT WAS!

All in the fake theory that you don't want to incite a troubled person? BS! And lazy BS to boot. What a complete crock!

Could you imagine this taking place in LA? NY, Philly, Chicago? NO, because it would never happen!

Here's a random thought: could KCBS and its bonehead news planners called the CHP and did a brief phoner; a top-hour news interview that addressed the matter and informed its listeners as to what-the-hell was going on? Oh, no, that would have been too exhausting and required heavy lifting.

Again, KCBS is a JOKE of a news operation. It has ZERO cred and is ILL-SUITED to cover any news event, let alone a major one like the bridge shutdown.

But with INCOMPETENT people in charge and a news director whose never reported a story in the field, what do you expect.
