Hey Chad...in order to catch the TV weather video forecast on my iphone, I have to tune into Channel 8 from Indy. I've got the WLFI app on my phone but I sure wish you would post your daily weather forecast from TV on that site. Thanks much.

Uhh, no we don't. He was such a hillbilly. TV10 is doing just fine without him.

Yep, that's what most decent TV stations do in their morning newscasts. It's due to audience turnover. The average person only watches about 10-15 minutes of a morning newscast so you have to do weather about every 10 minutes or so to deliver the number one topic of interest (weather) to as many people as possible.

If you just sit and watch the newscast (more than 10-15 minutes), then you're definitely in the minority. Not saying it doesn't happen, it's just not the norm.

The 'new chick' is way better than Chad. Good choice there News 10.

The new chick is in no way better than Chad. She is hard to watch, not energetic, can't complete a sentence without stuttering.
You are either working for Channel 10, or typing with your lower half
