Question POLL: What NEPA TV Station Is Your Favorite For News?

I got the idea for this poll from a similar thread on the Tulsa forum. Since watching the local news is a daily ritual around here, I was just wondering what everyone's favorite station was and why? I personally prefer WNEP because their personalities just seem to mesh very well whereas a lot of the folks on WYOU and WBRE don't seem very compatible. Mindi Ramsey has done a great job thus far of filling in the void left behind when Kim Supon left the morning show, and how can you not love Joe Snedeker's crazy weather antics? WNEP seems to do a better job at covering the entire region, whereas WYOU is very Lackawanna County-oriented and WBRE is very Luzerne County-oriented.

What say you all?

WNEP is the only one I watch and I like it. I tried other stations but they just seemed cold. WNEP is funny and yes, they have chemistry. I was in a music band for years and know this is very important on stage like they are. I check out their website everyday.

In that case you can probably guess who the reputed, verbose liberal wack-job "A Notorious Regular" on Talkback 16 Online really is. I'll give you three guesses, and a hint---it's not the Kool-Aid Man.

Been watching WNEP for years and I really like their "style." Not afraid to push the envelope and be a bit silly, yet still maintaining their serious news delivery when necessary.

I'm also a bit biased since my brother worked there in the mid 80s (weekend sports anchor), and I interned there when I was in college.
