Sadly, the Bay is like the rest of the nation - the gap between the big wigs and the listeners is widening more than ever. Each region needs local news, no matter what the head honchos say. Jack Swanson is at KCBS because Les Moonves hates radio. (That's one big disappointment about Moonves - he never has and never will understand the necessity of having local news in the event of an emergency as still not everyone is online and not all gives a rip about his wife's insufferable 'Big Brother' show.)<br />Rich, thank you for continuing to cover the local Bay newsrooms that like newsrooms elsewhere in the U.S. often make The Simpsons seem functional!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-23831569803939062462015-09-04T19:32:14.730-07:002015-09-04T19:32:14.730-07:00Rich, if you want more readers, why don't yo...Rich, if you want more readers, why don't you glom on to the angle that these news people are nothing more than paid propagandist towing the government line. Conan O'brien did a pretty good job of this in pretty much the only way he could. <br /><br />You could start with the 2003 decision in which a Florida Appeals court claimed that the FCC policy against falsification of the news does not rise to the level of a “law, rule, or regulation,” it was simply a “policy.” Therefore, it is up to the station whether or not it wants to report honestly.<br /><br />Without any repercussion under the law, the "news" has certainly distorted fact after fact on too many stories to mention here. They simply regurgitate what that dumb teleprompter says. <br /><br />That, combined with no real journalistic integrity of any consequence on our lawless leaders, means there's not much to respect about mainstream news anymore.

You stir the pot then edit out most of our comments followed by this pseudo-mea-culpa. Oh it's all just "what you do" which is just to add to the dung-heap of garbage we already have to deal with. I do not read your column regularly since it's so inflammatory and gossip driven. When I saw the link on Facebook from one of my colleagues, I decided to look. It makes me sad that there is someone here among us that is feeding you such a line of BS. Unfair to Rebecca. Your original post should be taken down out of fairness.

The dopey SFX in the various packages from the field, Kevin the Rat injecting his opinions and commentaries into every sports segment, the inability to catch subtle flaws, such as the 49ers pre-season game promos from KPIX that talked about head coach Tom Sula. <br /><br />KCBS is popular because it's a news station -- and somebody somewhere got the bright idea to spice it up by trying to make it more entertaining and hip. No doubt that somebody looked at the demos and said "hmmm, we're trending older -- we need to appeal to a younger audience." Yeah, right. Good luck getting all the invaders of Twittertown to put down their devices to listen to terrestrial radio with, egad, COMMERCIALS.<br /><br />Just leave KCBS alone before it gets screwed up and everybody bolts -- just like they did after somebody somewhere tinkered with KGO's winning formula.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
