At least - the cities have quit lying and saying "inside the city limits or the ETJ." That was the 2x a year news up until last year or two - and never true. ETJ has some very specific rules - and extending city criminal statutes beyond its borders isn't one of them.

Watched the 10!p tonight. Every medical story was a classic example of churnalism. I would attribute almost nothing to the mentioned research for my patients.

If you are looking for hard hitting investigative journalism, you will be disappointed with local news. The expression "do not ***** in your own front yard" comes to mind.

Small market media is driven by advertising and not investigation reporting. The journalists don't like it but in a small market, they are working their tails off to move up to a larger market. Getting fired in a small market pretty much lands you in insurance sales.

I liked Abigail! She always brought good news and seemed to add some pep to the show!

Good luck to her wherever she went. We know this is mostly a temporary stop for young news and weather people.
Abigail was a bit of alright. I think she just got married recently. Hope she ends up in a big market.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Gonna miss him. He's been on KBTX since before I moved here 30 years ago. Met him at a kid birthday party and we bonded over Alvin high school.

Yep, he's been doing sports for KBTX since I was a kid.

I remember when he replaced Ron Crozier.

Kudos to Max - mentioned new models suggesting the tropical wave may be more west in its turn and development than previously thought. That was a recent change this PM. Not included in current NHC update. Good to see real work going into the weather.

The weekend anchor got arrested the other night for throwing a haymaker and breaking someone's nose in a spat. At least she took it outside and did it face to face. Used to be they would be scolded and sent home. Hope they don't let her go as she is a cheerful sort.

Don't know any of the details, but her employer did a great job of throwing her under the bus last night.

She was suspended at a previous job for slurring her words and being "disheveled" while on the air.

She and her boyfriend started arguing in a restaurant while drinking. They went back to her house and she hit him in the face a dozen times and broke his nose. It's all in the article.

Since arrest records are public, it was going to get out sooner or later. If they hadn't said anything, they would get accused of trying to cover it up. Best to get it out in the open and be done with it.

KBTX has removed her from their website so she's gone.

Meet the Team (kbtx.com)

Not really a surprise; no way they could have kept her on the air.

She had a colorful history before coming to KBTX



https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11003519/amp/TV-anchor-suspended-incoherent-broadcast-regularly-turned-work-drunk.html

I actually thought she did a good job. I hope she can figure things out.

Not here to make fun of her disease. I have seen what it can do.

But, have to question the hiring choices....

It's the only way that KBTX can get any talent of that level, so the baggage is worth taking a risk on.

Sadly, it didn't work out in this case.

You know what she needs to do? Go back to her hometown, reconnect with real friends and family, take over her dead aunt's legacy bakery, and discover the true meaning of Christmas.

Apparently KBTX app feed just works as a campaign feed….

Presented with rise in border crossings, Harris chose a long-term approach to the problem https://www.kbtx.com/2024/08/14/presented-with-rise-border-crossings-harris-chose-long-term-approach-problem/

The amount of propaganda they've been putting out lately, much of it from the Texas Tribune (which is nothing but a leftwing propaganda outlet posing as a news outlet) and CNN is staggering, even by the usual KBTX standards.

And as Independence H-D said, they try their best to be CNN on the Brazos.
