KSTP's response (Minn/St Paul's ABC affiliate) to my ABC email |
|
Here is the response I got from my local ABC affiliate:
Many television viewers have called or written to us to share their opinion of the upcoming ABC Special "Path to 9/11". Unfortunately, the concerns have been made without the benefit of viewing the program in it's entirity. While we may not all agree on the subject matter of a certain program, Channel 5 does believe it is important to allow it's viewers to opportunity to watch and make up there own minds regarding a programs value.
Also, as the ABC affiliate, Channel 5 broadcasts ABC network programming but does not determine the content of it. We are the only locally-owned television station serving the Twin Cities, and hope that you will judge ABC network offerings separately from Channel 5's own local news and public affairs programming.
As a matter of public record, your feedback is included in our public file. We also suggest that you make your opinion known to the originator of the program. To help, here is the contact information: ABC Audience Information Department at 818/460-7477. You may also contact the network via email to abc.audience.relations@abc.com , or by visiting the network's websites www.abc.com.
Again, we appreciate your feedback and do hope that you will continue to watch Channel 5.
Sincerely,
Mike Smith Director of Programming and Operations KSTP-TV & KSTC.TV msmith@kstp.com

3. Blah blah blah blah blah. Judge for ourselves, my ass. |
|
I never got to judge the Reagan biopic for myself, nor that comedy show about the priest with the gay son. Nope, I never judged a second of those offerings for myself, I was told by the right wing extremists that they were too offensive for me to view.
This response is a total complete cop-out.

6. Locally-owned or not... |
|
If they air an inaccurate piece of right-wing propaganda 8 weeks from the election, my television will never again tune in their station.

7. Do they REALLY not know the difference between "it's" and "its"?? |
|
Their freaking job is communications!
"it's viewers" ???!!?!
And don't get me started on "it's entirity" -- where they can't even spell entirety correctly!
