"I
hope they'll take up more of the screen with data."
"Sadly,
the station that I am watching presented this story
to me 15 seconds after its competitor did. I know this,
for I watch four televisions at once."
"It's
important to me whether a station's lower third font
is in all caps or uses lower case as well."
"You
mean there were PREVIOUS stumbling blocks on the road
to peace in the Middle East?"
"When
one person is injured in a car accident, I don't really
care. But when one person is injured in a light plane
crash, I want to know!"
"Did
you see the editing on that package? Oh, the L-cuts!"
"I know it's going to be 70 degrees and sunny today.
Please, for the love of God, tell me about the barometric
pressure!"
"This
station really should mention its call letters more."
"This
new logo really makes me want to watch their news now."
"I'm glad they clarified that it was "ACTOR" Arnold
Schwarzenegger. I had no idea who they were talking
about."
"Those six second SOTs are too long. They should trim
them to four."
"I'm
not sure I cared much for that story count."
"Sure, I know they told me a lot of important news.
But, darn it - they broke format!"
"I
wasn't able to change emotional gears fast enough between
those two stories."
"The
chopper pics were OK, but I really had hoped they would
have ground pics by now."
"I
really wish they had dissolved between those two VOs
instead of a straight take."
"It
really helped my understanding of that story that they
asked a couple of random idiots on the street what THEY
thought of it."
"10 minutes into the show, they needed to establish
the male anchor on cam before going to that VO. I had
no idea who was talking."
"More
puns in teases, dammit! More puns!"
"That
Doppler Radar 9000 sure beats the hell out of the competitor's
Doppler Radar 3000. NOW the forecasts will be accurate."
"If
only this graphics package used a slightly darker shade
of blue as a complimentary color."
"Sure,
that logo is big. But it could be bigger."
"They
should use the word "local" a lot more in this newscast."
"I
don't really care about the stories or accuracy. What
I'm interested in is how well they brand their station."
"I
knew the station would give me news that was live and
local. But latebreaking too? Awright!"
