I think I had heard that it was airing on 50 major networks, I know all the MTV networks will be airing it.

27, I think (simple TVGuide search).  Not needed on TWC.

Surprised this wasn't mentioned, but this is the second anniversary of TWC's meltdown.
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

Haiti:  :thumbdown:

* Felix doesn't trusts that country at all. :hammer:

That's a little rude... considering what they've gone through with this catastrophe. :hmm:

If TWC is treating the Haiti special as a long-form program and allowing brief periods for local forecasts or using the L-bar, then it all works out okay.  After all, an estimated 200,000 people are suspected to be dead from this earthquake in the poorest country of the Western Hemisphere.  I know the media coverage has been excessive, but this natural disaster is probably going down as the 10th deadliest to ever occur in the world's history.

I agree as well that they can air the special as they wish, but how come it's on so many channels or did the other networks volunteer to air it? I'm pretty sure most viewers who watch will be watching the major networks for this telethon anyway./ Btw, is anyone here watching it right now?

WeatherProof has a terrible format...

9:54 - TWC Promo
9:55 - Local Forecast
9:56 - Another TWC Promo, then station ID
9:57 - Back to the show
