Also channel 13 is notorious for having the blue "trailer" at the bottom
of the
screen and beeping, even though it is not an emergency!  They tout their
upcoming
broadcast as if an emergency is happening...you stick around (as is
their desire)
then learn that the whole thing is pure overhyped BULLSHIT!  I wrote
them
regarding this, to no response....they apparently do NOT CARE.  I am now

making a concerted effort to boycott 13, and have begun notifying their
SPONSORS (this may get their attention) of the reason I will not buy
their
product.  Let's get channel 13 to use more common sense, less hype, and
to cease and desist in making the viewer look like a fool, i.e., when
he/she
stays for the "important story" hyped by blue trailer, all for naught.

GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER 13!
