Salem covers Hurricane Wilma

[FloridaBear1776]

Or tries to.

Actually, their Metro Networks reporters tried to.

What they did Sunday and Monday was hook up 860 and 930 plus a Jacksonville station to some kind of daisy chain with their Miami station WKAT.

The Miami reporter kept trying to ask questions about the Tampa situation of Metro/Salem reporter "Leslie Lacey", who seemed to always have no answers or the wrong answers. For example, when Miami man asked about people without cars getting bus rides in Sarasota, "Leslie" answered with some info about Tampa.
Another high moment for all those Sarasota listeners complaining to the paper about losing their "local" station. Instead of sharing information, this all-Salem broadcast ended up sharing ignorance.

B+ for effort, D for execution.

Re: Salem covers Hurricane Wilma...NOT

When I listened to WLSS during the storm, I heard them playing the audio of Channel 40. It was staticy and cutting in and out... guess thats what you get trying to get Ch. 40 on a cheap TV with rabbit ears....and then clipping onto the speaker leads and feed it into the board. Maybe they stuck the mike in front of the speaker. Either way it sounded like hell and made Ch 40 er ABC 7 look bad. They need to sever that deal now.
Its funny, Salem and Salem light both get their news and have the same reporters from Clear Channel.... Thats funny....
