HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
GOOD ONE, PORK!



Nice one Porky. You are such a child. Just to let everyone know, Porky pulls the same stunt on another forum. He has multiple user names. It really is sad.

Obviously ignorant to you, the webmaster can see the IP of the poster your referring to and can see it's not me and most likely see it is you or one of your cronies.

I'm sorry to the members of this forum that DM has done this and I will quit posting here in hopes of DM's personal agendas towards me doesn't sour this wonderful forum anymore than it has already.

All though some of you have some real issues with me lol, I've enjoy learning and discussing all of the events and agenda's in Tulsa by this very well ran forum, as all the great members on here.

Keep up the great work everyone because a lot of people read this forum even though they do not post. Your words are our future and knowledge.

Best Wishes,
Porky

I don't know why Porky displays his forum address when no one is allowed to register to join it.

So, back to the subject. [:P]

I will say that I really like KTUL's weather channel today. I turned it on when the storms blew through and it was great to see the updated radars and then the weather person giving us updates. First time I tuned to 247 in during a storm.

Kuddos to KTUL today.


waterboy

DM, ch247, website weather and all the TV channels of doppler radar were useless to us as after the first minor gust our whole neighborhood lost power once again.

That irony aside, I tuned in the radio to find what was happening. Trusty KRMG had a pinging noise but no weather updates...Talons game pretty entertaining though. One station was hilarious, it kept running promos for what great weather coverage they had but never actually gave the weather!

So doesn't all the hype on weather coverage seem a little hyped?

For the most part, I am very dissapointed with all of the local "news" media.

Channel 2 claims to "Work" for me, but if they did, they would've been fired a long time ago.

Channel 6 continues their cutsie approach complete with canera dollyt shots.

Channel 23 just has a hard time getting its act together technically, and their news readers constantly mispronouce the simplest words.

But the goof award of the year would have to go to channel 8.  A number of months back, they did an "expose" on prostitution in Tulsa.  They set up a bald middle-aged guy as a decoy in a local motel room and "caught" the hookers they called on tape.

What amazed me about this obvious attempt to pander to an audience, the person they used as bait was none other than Rick Brinkley - the local president of the Better Business Bureau.  I will never forget my laughter as I watched Brinkley make a feeble attempt at this cheap journalsim.  I 'm still not sure what their point was: that prostitution exists in Tulsa?  Or that prostitution is bad?  I never could figure that one out.

Also, why did they use the BBB?  I knew that the BBB investigitated companies who screwed their customers, but I never new their mandate extended THIS far!

They used the President of the local BBB to solicit prostitution for one simple reason:

Professional Courtesy.  The BBB rarely "validates" a complaint against a dues-paying business member of the BBB.

So, it takes one to recognize one.

I would agree that KTUL has about the best web site in the Tulsa market with KOTV a close second.

But I do wish the video news stories worked in Firefox.

Last summer season Chuck advised us to "..throw out any stagnant water you're not using..." in an effort to ward off the deadly West Nile virus.  I can think of thousanda of uses for stagnant water.

I think that's that show that McGraw Davisson has on Sunday mornings, right?

I like Beth Rengel. At least she's real. So what if she can cuss like a sailor on a bender? I watched her cuss on the air and thought it did Tulsa some good. This town is waaaay too prudish.

As for local TV, I have never seen a LIBERAL television broadcast in Tulsa. I'm amazed at the number of people here who have seen one. I just can't figure out what channel they're watching.

Maybe they're watching the Oral Roberts satellite network?


Tulsa Homeboy

Mike Ziegwnhorn was the best sportscaster
Tulsa has ever had.
And to those who do noy like us " liberals",
you time is up with the recent elections.

The Repugs were convincingly and overwhelmingly
voted and booted out of office in a big way.

And this put a big smile on my face.

The big business and filthy rich snobs
have finally got what they have deserves
since the 2000 elections.

We working class are going to and have
taken back from the rich and big business
what they have been stealing the last 6
years.

You all will now have to pay your fair
share of taxes and such out of your own
bulging pockets and bank accounts that
you have stolen from us in the last 6 years
by enacting laws to take from the poor
and give to the rich and big business.

HAHAHAHA....................
