Our local 10/11:00 news has been 90% whoring for Black Friday, how about yours?

[Systematic Chaos]

Same thing on both NBC and our Fox affiliate here in Las Vegas.

It's all about the campers who claim to have been outside of a local Best Buy since Monday, hoping to get dibs on awesome Chinese shit deals.

This in a city which now has worse unemployment than Detroit and which I understand has a population which is now beginning to shrink due to how horrible the economy is.

:wtf:

1. Its as bad and as frequent as the Pelosi Liberal communist bitch ads

[Systematic Chaos]

3. Sorry but can you explain a little?

Hadn't heard about anti-Pelosi ads still running after the election.

Why would they still be doing such a thing now? :shrug:

11. NOT NOW

However a couple of weeks ago it was 24/7

My Dem rep got knocked off by a couple Million $$$$ of them funded by the chamber of commerce appealing to knuckle dragging catholic type sheep

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. The COLD weather is the big story here

People will die overnight. We don't have shelters.

[Systematic Chaos]

4. Oh, no.

:(

They did run a story about the homeless here and how they're trying to make sure that everyone who needs it will have a Thanksgiving dinner that's worth a damn, and will also have shelter since we're also going to be below freezing for a couple days here, at least (anymore that's rare for us unless it's the dead of January).

And believe me, this town is now chock-a-block full of desperate people, which is why our population is supposedly starting to head down.

Fuck this is depressing.

5. Yup. And when I heard the jokes about WalMart...

I wanted to ask if no one remembered what happened just last year! :banghead:

6. Can't stay up that late

I am in bed by 8pm. Getting up early (2:30am) for work has that affect on me. The side benefit is not watching local news.

[Systematic Chaos]

7. Only reason I was listening to it was that my wife made a quick store run...

...and didn't turn off the TV after the previous show had ended.

Otherwise, I don't bother watching our local news either.

[Zephie]

8. I make it a point not to even watch the local news

It rarely says anything worth knowing in the first place. TV news be it local or national is a joke.

[DCKit]

9. Don't watch the T-day parade coverage then... much more of the same.

I tuned in for about three minutes, and it's just a really long commercial, with floats, bands and balloons.

[sendero]

10. Arizona Bay

one can dream.

[Major Hogwash]

12. Yeah, I noticed that too. They even sent a reporter out to cover the line at Toys'R'Us

Like it was something important.

But to be fair, they act that way whenever a cow gets loose here, too.
