Action News is Cool!

UPDATE: They removed the first spot from Youtube... I'll repost if they do.

Not sure where they found this kid... but he has a great delivery. Still not convinced news is "cool"... but for what these are -- they're pretty fun.

I believe they were asking viewers to send in homemade videos.

FINALLY!

This station figured out how to get more weather into their newscast.

Austin's KEYE: What Matters

KEYE anchors take to the streets to talk about what matters with their viewers.

WFAA: Ron Corning taking over mornings...

A little background on this spot. The guy with the cigar in this spot(yep - there's an anchor smoking a stogie in this promo) is Dale Hansen. Dale has been WFAA's main sports anchor for years and promoted as a real firecracker personality. He's known for that in Dallas -- where a cocky, cigar smoking anchor is actually accepted.

This spot is for their new morning anchor, Ron Corning.



Does it work? Part of me loves the different approach... part of me isn't sure... part of me wants to smoke a cigar now.

And you are...?

From time to time, I wonder what type of people come to this site. CSDs, producers, artists, news people, hobos, drug addicts... who?

Do me the favor of commenting with a little something about yourself. You can still remain anonymous - but tell us what you do, where you are at and anything else we may want to know.

Go ahead... don't be shy!
