Is anyone else annoyed with the non weather travel segments added to last week TWC?
Why do we need segments on friends, families and couples traveling?
They have nothing to do with weather.
This is one of them airing on every broadcast,
http://www.weather.com/travel/hit-the-road/main

The segment is airing because of a deal between TWC, Toyota and Allstate

Kelly Cass said in her Facebook that she will be on-air from 5PM-8PM ET for Tropical Storm Debbie. They are over-hyping the storm but that's a good thing. Long-Form is going to be pre-empt.

Mike Bettes
Off to NYC to anchor Your Weather Today for a few days. It's going to get seriously hot! Perfect timing. Deodorant

Looks like Mike is going back and forth. NBC is wasting money on sending Mike back and forth to Atlanta and NYC. They should just keep Mike in NYC forever.

Nicole mentioned this on FB,
I will be a guest on the O'Reilly Factor tomorrow. What great national exposure to bring light to the problem of employers discriminating against our military!

Yeah! My favorite show! Can't wait to see her! I hope that NBC/TWC will go downhill for this! Its not right to "let go" someone who works for the Military.

Who would want to get up at 4 in the morning (ET) to watch E/I programming from TWC anyway? 

It has to be done per FCC requirements.

The FCC E/I Requirement is only for TV Stations, not Cable Channels.
