The local stations down here start the "6 o'clock" news at 4 or 5. They have Live at 5 on 5, then rehash the same dopey stuff at 5.30, regurgitate it AGAIN at 6, the networks take over a 6.30, then quite a few of 'em rerun the same 3 stories of a Horrible Wreck on the Interstate at 7 & 7.30 that we've heard about EVERY 30 minutes since 4 or 5.... And just in case you missed it, they dutifully repeat it AGAIN at 11 PM..The ads are even worse-down here, there's some bucktoothed guy w/a cheesy beard/stache who has been the spokesperson for "Johnson City Honda... Johnson City" for AGES, to try to get you believe that you'll get less of a screwing at the JC Honda emporium than you would if you went to the Dastardly cutpurses in Bristol or Kingsport.
