Very sad. And, don’t waste your 29 min. for zero information other than debri on roadway, motorcyclist and van collided, cross-streets given, male motorcyclist’s injuries severe/fatal (it appears” said the officer…and reporter reading off people’s names from the “News” station FB page like that 1960s Romper Room lady. You could just watch an entire half hour of something informative or listen to the reporter breathing through her mask for 30 seconds of information thanking the viewers (for what who knows…for viewing?)…please stop reading off the names, very annoying..it is all about viewership obsession not news. “I wish I could call him…” He is busy being a detective!!!! Really? All the praying…nice and do we have to hear it listed? An “Advocate for the community” really? “Stay strong sister you got this”….the reporter has not lost family and didn’t even see the accident or victim!!! So much misdirected emotion. So much for news.

I understand. So many new customs, so little time. A new custom of call such videos “Newscaster/Viewers chat” might save people a lot of time watching and waiting for information; people who potentially the accident truly affects.

Another sad read this morning. I don’t know who was at fault. I am a bike rider, and I am so very sorry the bike rider has passed away. My sincere condolences to his family and friends. RIP.
