Seattle TV news just sucks!
Right now, all they are doing is showing the Christmas tree lighting ceremony and the lighting of the big star at the Bon Marche department store. They have hyped it up all over the newscasts on all of the channels. I don't wanna be a Scrooge but PUHLEEEZE!!!

1. Well it was sure raining earlier down here in the south sound
I bet that really ruined the parade.

2. The "news" program is now just an infomercial
Of course they will hype these non-stories because these same retailers are the biggest purchasers of ad time. Long gone are the days when the ad department was separate from the news department. Today, they are one and the same.

And, face it. Media companies have a vested interest in propping up the fraud in the White House, so they will do anything they have to do to get people to believe the economy is "doing just fine."
