Back in "the day" people used to keep a lookout in questionable weather (extremely humid, fast rising or falling temperatures, etc) and take responsibility to tune-in to local media which, back in the (same) day was not owned by corporate monsters that program from hundreds of miles away from your home town...and the result: Local people giving you LOCAL weather information.

Look at this headline, found in a box of about 2.5 pounds of old 1950's and early 1960's headlines that I was going through today in WION's back room....Almost laughable now that it's such a big deal seeing this, huh?

They were owned by a large corporation, and THEY “lost us” during a corporate buyout and […]

I was fortunate this past weekend to attend an event in Akron, Ohio with two very good friends. The event was postponed from January due to bad weather and I was the beneficiary of being able to attend on the delayed date. The event was called "Dead Media Market" and, the event was anything BUT "dead." We got there as it opened and stood in line. In the lobby were […]
