Misinformation from News (@ FM

M

mmarshall

(The header should read News 92 FM. I hit the caps button by mistake.)
After my clock radio went on after 7 AM this morning, I heard a news story on KROI about Tuesday night's Mayoral Debate, which I had watched.
They reported that all nine candidates participated (only 6 did) but their web page lists 7. One mentioned on the web page is Charyl Drab who was not there, and I may have misheard, since I was half awake, but I thought that Ben Hall was read as Ben Holloway.
I switched my preset to KROI when Lana and J.P. started.

You switched your preset to or from KROI? This seems strange since you woke up to KROI. Huh?
 
Not to put words in the OP's mouth, but if I read that the way it appeared to be intended, he changed his preset button to KROI when J.P. and Lana first arrived at KROI, thus his radio is set to KROI presently, and this is what he wakes up to currently, sometime after 7:00am.

I can't explain how he or she hit the caps lock on only the 9 and 2 in the title of the thread, while the rest of the wording is capitalized correctly, nor how there was an edit to the post without a correction to the title at the same time. Lol.

That's pretty sad if what the OP said was true. I didn't watch the debate, didn't even know it occurred last night, but if KROI didn't fact check what was going to be read across their airwaves, then shame on them.

There's nine people running? That's news to me. I thought it was Ben Hall vs. Annise Parker. Shows how much I've been following the race.
 
After I posted this, I realized I hit the caps button when I intended to write 92 and it came out (@. There is an edit button available to edit the post, but apparently not the header. That's how I was able to add the disclaimer in parentheses at the top. If anyone knows how to edit the header, let me know. And to Drucifer, I thought it was clear that I changed the alarm preset to KROI. When J.P. and Lana were at KTRH, I set it to there. After they were let go, I changed it to KUHF. When KROI started up, I changed it again. I like the news in the morning, but if Scott Arthur were still on KQUE, It would be set to 102.9.
