Aargh!


ABC24 News has now started, as part of their "Preparing For War" Iraqi War story banner, including weather forecasts from Iraq! That's right, now you can have the same inaccurate predictions of weather from Baghdad and Basra as you get from Memphis.

The former best hard-news station continues to dumb down. They fired their old anchors, including local hero Michelle Robinson, and brought in a couple of Fox-style, light-as-air, good-looking mannequins. But they kept many of the same reporters, oddly enough.

It's just depressing.
