The channel is Discovery (Discovery Times) the program is Off To War. It follows Arkansas National Guard unit transfered to Iraq. For anyone who still hasn’t gotten it thru their thick scull that what you see on TV is not a game or a movie, but a real fucked up situation that actually involves real people – either someone’s son, dad, brother who go there not because they want to but because they had to. It’s the story of those who bit on the National Guard’s “1 weekend a month 2 weeks a year” sales pitch only to be sent half a world away to find their death. It’s quite moving, and it’s not narrated, the soldiers speak for themselves

Not that it’s any of my business, but my curiousity is getting the best of me as usual. I’m wondering how much money are the lead anchors making in this market? It’s said that Dwight Lauderdale’s 5 year contract is in the mid-six-figures, which if I guesstimate to be $500,000 that’s $100,000/year. Call me jaded but that seems like yellow pennies to me, I thought it would be $500Gs a year instead. No? Maybe I’m confusing the markets. Anyone? Info? Insiders?

As always thanks to one of my great tipsters for getting me in the loop 
Ok I’ve fixed the problem and videos are back online. You are welcome to download as many video clips as you like, however using any programs to leech the whole site at once is not welcome it just consumes too much bandwith for a single person
Apparently some people have taken the freedom to leech the whole website at once, thus I’ve gotten over 1.5GB of traffic in the last one hour, total for this month being 6.5GB. As such I’m taking the videos offline untill I find a solution to this problem. As you see the site is free and has no ads, not to mention the time it takes to put together all the video clips and upload them, I’m paying out of my own pocket for this server so I thought it nessecarry to curb down on the bandwith use for the moment!
Repeat after me
This website is not affiliated with any TV station
Some people seem to think I work for whichever local TV station and keep sending emails telling me about their smelly feet, lost dogs and general disdain with local government or whatever. I’ve said it before I will say it again, I do not work for any local TV station, the local stations have no connection with me whatsoever and do not endorse what I say, I am not involved in the TV business, I’m not a journalist, never have been and don’t aspire to be one. This site is what it is – a place to show off local stations’ on air presence in terms of graphics, mixed in with news about them and the occasional rant from myself.
