Happy sweeps!

Today marks the start of sweeps month. From today until March 1st, television stations will bow to the mercy of the few, but mighty Nielsen families in this market. What sort of crazy hijinks will we see on the news this month? Tune in and see, because YOUR FAMILY MIGHT BE AT RISK!

In other news, can someone explain why WBRE decided to do a story about a widely-circulated urban legend? Next on WBRE News: why Bill Gates won't pay you for those damn e-mails you keep forwarding.

WGAL in Lancaster decided to do a story on it, too.

Because most people are too stupid to realize it's an urban legend. I thought it was good that they did it - a lot of people are talking about it. Remember, Mr. Beale, they're on your side! Lol...

So did WKOK in Sunbury and WGRC in Lewisburg. Perhaps this coverage was warranted, because I know my friends are convinced about the speeding crackdown. But they can be dumb. :)

Some still think this scam is legit. It was a completely fine news piece. Debunk these stupid scams. Good work.

Think about it: "On Your Side." It's a concept.
