I can't stand any of our news networks. They advertise way too much. I heard a radio commercial for the 6:00 news about 5 times yesterday within a 30 minute drive. AND it was 4 seperate stations. This city has WAYY to much news. Most of the stories are pointless and I think they just want to fill the time slot. After football games, when other cities go to the postgame and press conferences, we go to the news. It's ridiculous
Hey guys, May is the book for TV...or "sweeps" as some people call it. In the business, May is one of the biggest books of the year. So that's why you are hearing all the ads for TV news on the radio right now. It will stop in June. Expect the same in November.

Oh lighten up Old was not meaning old age, it's an expression. I love Brotha Fred and I even wrote to Fox Charlotte and said how much I love him I'm watching Fox Charlotte right now! Can't wait for The Edge to come on.
The Roving Reporter is John Wilson. He was a DJ on WRFX 99.7 the Fox, and he was one of the BEST DJ's that I've ever heard. Funny thing about Fox iN Charlotte, between "The Edge" and the "Fox News Rising" shows, I just can't understand how they have any ratings at all. I remember when Fox News Rising first started out, and they had an extremely low budget with a lady who was a DJ from 104.7 and another guy and it was the worst. They guy that was hosting was later arrested or charged with something like battery on his ex wife or something. They have since "Classed it up" some with the changes. It kills me about Derek "Peezy" James being the weatherman on Fox since he was a radio producer for Matt and Ramona for so long. I always thought you have to go to school to be a weatherman, not just some average Joe off the streets.
Fox news rising still needs help but not a great source to get the latest information and get it quick. But I do a agree John Wilson and Beth Troutman make the show. I think she has a wonderful down to earth personality and John Wilson you can tell when he didnt get much sleep the night before in his eyes but still a bubbly personality.
I am partial to Derek James since meeting him, Matt & Ramona at a post Hurricane Katrina fundraising event all three was very down to earth like I was talking to my neighbors not a ounce of snoot in them. (Derek is working on his degree in broadcast meteorology)
I notice something last night when I was up late about Brian Blakey of the fox news unless he has a twin brother I swear that he does a abdominal ab infomercial on the device that sends electric pules to the abs.
