Every story is a Covid hit piece. That beta reporter continues to spout jacked up Covid numbers without any honest breakdown of how said news channel arrived at the total. Truly the enemy of the people.

You are so right. All one has to do is watch any national alphabet news broadcast and some local like WAFB and there is your answer smart guy.

WDSU is pretty bad. Their social media folks are infuriating

They are trying to make themselves the CNN of local news. Their main anchor Greg Merriwether doesn’t attempt to hide his racist feelings, their social media headlines are divisive and overtly sensational, and they’ve been cheerleaders for all of Honor Codes missteps and doing all they can to spread fear. I miss the weather team on WAFB, but I’ll put up with watching a drunk Pat Shingleton if it means I don’t have to listen to their woke station anymore.

WAFB news is unwatchable.

Same thing with the local news channel here around Macon. I have just stopped watching news because it makes me irrationally angry every morning.

They need fear and panic for their numbers to look good.

WBRZ is also on par using SWB as the BR area corona spokesperson.
The early a.m. show constantly refers to DJT as Mr. Trump and Trump after playing network fake news clips regarding the virus.
Both stations are not worth watching.

No. I think we should work around it as best we can.

Exactly the same out of Cincinnati, except for the one story of someone vandalizing the local BLM street mural with red paint and then people having the audacity to drive through it (it’s painted on the main thoroughfare through downtown).

Fox News isn’t any better

I have been very disappointed in their reporting regarding the virus
They gave every opportunity to ask common sense questions & don’t

Dr. Janette Nesheiwat that is always on is terrible too, she can’t give a straight answer

It’s frustrating

Wafb is a pecan shell of what it used to be.
