Wow - tonight at 6 first 5 min featured Rusty with no clue where he was going - live shot vs reporter I'm guessing. Then Travis Brown came in and seemed unprepared to talk about his early hit. Finished up with reporter Moreno talking about game day and misreading (or someone pulled a Ron Burgandy on her ) with "communally " substitute for commonly when talking about Penberthy Rd. They need a debrief after that ….

I didn't see tonight's newscast but recently it seems like their scrolling monitor must be messing up. More herky-jerky than normal.

KBTX is the boot camp for tv reporters (and hosts). The good ones go on to larger markets.

They need to do something about all the cackling from Karla and Kaleigh in the mornings. It's getting almost unwatchable in the mornings. Now that they have the new guy, Kaleigh needs to stay in the weather center and stop trying to be a news anchor.

So much truth to this, and I'm glad someone mentioned it because they laugh at everything. Karla seems to have a personal opinion about a lot of things, and it's just getting old. We rarely turn KBTX on in the mornings, but it's a pleasant relief when someone is filling in.

Sports kid just said "Kunsole" instead of "Consol".

The new sports girl said Con-sole on Friday. We chuckled. Can't wait til they pronounce Mexia. But they are enthusiastic and can learn. I think they have a pretty good team going.

No one proofs anything at that station. Rusty had a timeline on the Lee Co Sheriff DUI today that obviously took time to make and it was clearly in error with any possible explanation AND Rusty's narrative , flipping point 2 and 3 on the timeline. Clear journalism 101 stuff. It's really sad. …. 10 pm story same but graphic deleted. I guess the timeline creator was gone for the day and no one else could edit it.

So nothing about the huge police presence in College Station due to a robbery around SW Parkway. (At least as of 10:20 when I turned it off.) The scanner traffic mentioned Allen Honda, but might just have been where the victim called police from and not the site of the actual incident.

But we get a full court press about a few dozen students protesting Welsh leaving and a prof getting fired.

Then another full court press attacking Trump for saying a recently released study shows a connection to autism and acetaminophen. Sounded exactly like what we heard in 2020 the instant Trump mentioned HCQ might be a "game changer." The hysteria was too thick to cut with a knife.

Lastly, going all in on promoting Jimmy Kimmel.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

It was nice watching yesterday morning. No ridiculous or unnecessary cackling and no personal opinions/ views on everything. It's always so nice when Karla and Kaleigh are off.

Yeah, no wonder it was crickets. Surprised Rusty updated based on the suspects' residency status.

Rusty gets more insufferable daily on social media. I wouldn't even consider spending my advertising budget on KBTX with him there - and I have committed significant dollars to them in the past. I wonder how long he's going to last. Maybe I'm missing something. When Mike Wright left I should have read more into that at the time than I did. I think I'm understanding the reasons better each day.

Rusty is the absolute worst. Can't imagine a business wanting his name and socials to be associated with them.

Yeah he was totally unbiased with his rainbow hearts on X. This was about people for traditional marriage with signs.

Maybe it's newsworthy. If it is and you are associated with a business maybe just maybe be unbiased and report facts.

If it was his personal account there is no big deal but when it is associated with his job then it is out of line for a newsman.

You guys are really surprised that an openly gay guy doesn't line up with you?

Absolutely not. But if an openly heterosexual anchor did what he does on SM (clearly representing KBTX) regarding heterosexual issues they would be run out of town on rails.

What would a hypothetical example of a heterosexual news anchor doing what Rusty did that would get him run out of town on a rail? I'm genuinely curious.

From the article about the 5 CSPD officers being promoted.

" Each officer received a badge which was pinned by someone special in their life, as well as a certificate of promotion from the chief. When promoting officers, CSPD tends to promote from within the department."

I would assume so since they can't promote another departments officers.

New sports guy called Arp "A.R.P." On Friday Night Football…..not certain what he thought those letters could stand for with a school …. Maybe "Always Rite'n Papers" ?

Travis Brown on the 6 pm broadcast was struggling about the basketball player eligibility case. Good newspaper guy. Not ready for TV.

Agree. Neither is the new sports guy. But I do like the new sports girl. She is quite enthusiastic.

It comes as absolutely no surprise, but they just ran a segment on the 6 o'clock news that could very well have been run as an ad for the Democrat National Committee.

KBTX should be ashamed (but, I know they're not).
