From a TV perspective, what I was finding confusing & curious are all the weekday morning & evening anchors working the Saturday 11 p.m. news. My first thought was they probably got Thanksgiving day off, but had to make up the time by working tonight (Saturday 12/3/16). Even though this Oakland fire is big news, I'm still surprised to see KTVU, KNTV, KRON, KPIX, & KGO all bringing in the weekday anchor/reporter support. Did one station do it first and all the other stations copied? Is this standard news protocol for staffing? Just curious.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-5549448843747131932016-12-03T22:36:10.788-08:002016-12-03T22:36:10.788-08:00I would expect the oakland station, KTVU, to be at...I would expect the oakland station, KTVU, to be at the forefront.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-35456160320247490742016-12-03T21:47:47.071-08:002016-12-03T21:47:47.071-08:00There was a time when even delaying a decision to ...There was a time when even delaying a decision to take over the air on such a story would have been career-ending at a station.

The website looks like an Angelfire site from 1996. The content is non-existent. The delivery drivers deliver my Sunday paper to the middle of the sidewalk (the only paper I get physically) for anyone to amble by pick up... today's coverage of an international story and they have scant coverage. While I can't stand the ultra left slant of the East Bay Express, they offer the BEST by far coverage of Oakland and (metro) East Bay issues. While "late" to the coverage today, they have MANY angles covered. I don't always agree with their story angles, BUT I do tip my hat to their coverage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
