You're late.  Some of us have been feeling like this for awhile.

I can't stand most of the local newscasts, with the notable exceptions
of Tom Skilling's weather on Channel 9 and Ron Magers' "Dumb Crook of
the Month" awards and Joan Esposito's Healthwatch coverage on Channel
5.

The rest, as they say, is crap.  (Although Giangreco gives me a laugh
every so often.)
