New Media Voice in Town

While WC3PO doesn't seem committed to delivering discussion of local issues on TV, they are putting Kevin Osborne on the browser screen on Mondays. The first episode is in a bar with John Cranley (fitting) where Osborne throws a few softball questions at the mayor while dorky jazz music plays in the background for 7 minutes.
It's not going to usurp Dan Hurley's Newsmakers. Hurley's civic & historical knowledge make him a tough act to follow. I think it was WC3PO that had a panel discussion at about 4AM on Sunday mornings that featured area journalists like Peter Bronson. Funny how serious news doesn't work as well on Sundays at 4AM as bawdy humor, horror movies & deranged preachers do.

The Fishwarp wants to know what your local TV noose anchor dream team would be. Thing is these are just actors reading a script and the script is so bad - it might be worse than nothing at all. Reading comments their audiences post on their websites, it's quite obvious he local news media isn't doing their job - so why not use Spanish speaking masked Mexican wrestlers to deliver the local news?
They certainly have better reputations.
