Did anyone notice that WAFB did a FB Live shot as the Alabama Team arrived back on campus?

If you're wondering why a Baton Rouge TV Station is broadcasting or covering something like this...WAFB is owned by Raycom Media. Their majority owner is Retirement Systems Alabama. Which runs the pension systems for all state employees in Alabama.



Being trolled by the owner of our own local TV Stations. Incredible.

Why does a pension company own a media station?

I know a few folks who e-mailed them (and no...no I was not one of them believe it or not). They got a response back that read, "We have people in our viewing area who are Alabama fans and would like to see this."

WTF, man...WTF...

Seriously? This isn't that hard to figure out.

Hey man I'm not an economist or a business major. I don't know what types of companies typically own other types of companies.

RSA really doesn't have anything to do with it. Raycom is HQ'd in Alabama, their digital pages are all likely managed out of HQ. Local news stations are skeleton crews these days, especially ones that are part of a larger media group.

Maybe an Alabama tv station will come to BR to cover LSU players returning to campus after winning a natty ?
