KDLT hits a new journalistic low.

By -
Okay, I don't want to be yet another blogger who bashes the mainstream media (MSM), but this really takes the cake.

I was watching "Hit me baby 1 more time" on KDLT, and the show went to commercial. And on comes this promo for KDLT's early morning show. AND, what magical little bone did they throw the viewer to entice us to view their little place on the television tomorrow AM?

Tomorrow morning on KDLT - "Other uses for plastic bags."

You know, you can't make this shit up.

It almost makes me want to surf the channels and pick the news show with the hottest chicks. Because, apparently that's how they've pegged the intelligence of the viewer.

Then you ought to be watching KELO. They sure don't hire interns for their command of the English language. KDLT, a station I have seen for years, seems like every broadcast is like their second one. They fuck so much shit up -- running the wrong stories, forgetting sound, forgetting a mic is turned off, having the wrong graphic in the corner, or just generally looking like they shot the news on some $250 video camera donated by a drunk uncle.

But what are the other options? KELO? My god man. They masturbate to weather and the perp walk. KSFY? The FOX News of Sioux Falls?

It's really a sad state of news. KSFY is always looking like its run by 14 year olds who took grandmas Nebutolsm, KELO doesn't even hide the fact that they hire either a. cheap talent, or b. attractive talent or c. both. Except Scott Thorsten. I think he gets paid in Crown Royal and Old Gold cigarettes. At least I hope so, because he's about as talented as a monkey splashing in a septic tank. And KSFY, who's most innovative thing is a bigass camper called "wavey". Is this a PBS kids program? Wavey? What the fuck? Wavey? Did a develpmentally disabled child point poop alphabet soup on someone's desk one day? Adults came up with this idea?

Anyway, as you can see, I never miss a show. I'm a huge fan.

Sorry, KDLT is the one run by the 14 year olds who stole the neurleptic drugs. Not KSFY. I think of them more as Natural Ice people.

All too true. I'm still laughing. Thanks for the excellent comment!

My favorite - and my brother who was a KSFY news photog actually has this on tape - was on KELO. Anchor Angela Kennecke was reporting a sad story on the Death of President George Bush's mom.

Problem was, the video was of people throwing dead coyotes in the back of a pickup.

The camera went back to the anchors. And Steve Hemmingsen looked like a deer in the headlights.

A note from Benedict Ar... Sorry. A note from Stan Adelstein why he thinks you should vote Democrat this year.

(Click on letter to enlarge) And while it may not be printed at taxpayer expense, I don't see a disclaimer, either. When they hold the special session (supposedly at the end of November) , since he's left them already, I think his colleagues should expel him from the caucus. Sure. At that point it's only going to be symbolic. But since he's already said he's running again in the near future, sometimes symbolism is enough.

It's about health, not potential promiscuity.

As the only South Dakota blogger out with 5 daughters, I feel I need to weigh in on the whole discussion that's occurring with regards to the HPV vaccine, and Governor Rounds' proposal to make it available. My family (including my three oldest girls) watched my mom, their grandmother, succumb slowly and painfully to cancer which spread throughout her body. If a similar fate from a different type of cancer was preventable through a simple shot, why wouldn't anyone advocate for it? At the age most of my kids are going to be getting it, they're still playing with barbies, and negative influences such as most of the programming on MTV, and other assorted trashy television is verboten in my house. All they're going to know about this vaccination is that it's a shot, just like for teatnus or measles. They'll go "Ow, I don't want a shot," and that will be it. Just another mark on their vaccination record. One check box for DPT, one for HPV, and so on
