Fuck WGN's Developing Stories and Breaking News.

I'm sick of the way WGN reports their news.

Every single piece of news is prefaced by the screen showing either "Breaking News" or "Developing Story", accompanied by a quick version of the theme music. The whole fucking entire hour, at least the first 50 minutes. Then the last 10 minutes is more normal where they run thru a bunch of smaller news without the developing Story bullshit.

God it just pisses me off every time.

WHy not just state the news without any liner or music, have the little picture in the corner of the screen with the reporter discussing it and that's it.

What's with this Developing Story bullshit?

Go to NBC 5, and u they still do it the traditional way. Just go from one news to the next with no music or liner, and the picture of the topic northeast of the newscaster's head.

I'm sick of WGN.

FUCK DEVELOPING STORIES!!!

I couldn't exactly tell you why, but hiring that Irish reporter bugs me. Are there not enough qualified americans for the job?

:lol: That's how I feel about foreign race callers. Some of these track owners think a guy with a foreign accent makes the place seem classy. As if I wasn't going to realize I was in Arlington Heights rather than at Royal Ascot. It's like going to The Curragh and having a guy who sounds like I do announcing the races.

Beg to differ on Channel 5. They're the ambulance chasers of news. Everything on them is ""Breaking News", "Happening Now", "This just In".

Bronaugh Tumulty.

She is cute, but I want to smash the TV every time she comes on. Her accent being so thick, she murders the story she's telling.

And fuck the "Ba Bye" at the end of the newscast. Its a disrespectful and racist comment by Micah Materre.

She’s good at teasers though. The other day she went to break with “coming up next: how do you leave a polish person in suspense?”

I love her, she's gorgeous. Love the accent. I didn't know she was Irish, for some reason I thought she was some kind of Romanian or somethin', with that name.

Yes, she is definitely cute. But I can't listen... If we have WGN news on, and it's one of her stories, I have to hit mute. I just can't take it.

Their broadcasts are generally bad enough, but she's easily the worst of their many bad hires.

How is it disrespectful and racist?

And as an aside Materre and her hot sisters grew up on the next block from my childhood home. I always heard about them, but they were damn near cloistered and I never saw any of them until the final night of the bar exam as we were getting hammered. Everyone with us laughed when she described just how strict and efficient her parents were.

Does she say it in a way that is mocking of John Mclaughlin or something?

She really isn't all that good looking. I could walk into any irish bar in this city and find better. She has that middle earth kind of look to her

She may be bad but the concept of hiring her bugs me. It's not like there is some superfan type on air as a beat reporter at WMICK in Dublin who the locals find beloved because he's from the US.

maybe in Chicago. But in actual Ireland....there's really not much going on talent wise.

I never made claim that she was the hottest thing since the invention of the wheel. But I certainly wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers either. Of course after I put a sock in her mouth duct taped it shut so I wouldn't have to listen to that accent.

She doesn't sound like every other idiot reporter they have.

That would actually be a good bit, throwing to Tawmmy O'Cawnah from Boston do the weather report for Dublin. "Lookin' awright, chief!"

I'd never really seen her without a hat or hood on until today. My Lord does she have an below average face for radio and a voice for newspapers.
