It's All About Sweeps....

Is sweeps over yet? I tell ya what this has to be one of the worst sweeps period when it comes to "sweeping news stories". Seems the quality of the packages have really went down hill. I am not talking just on one channel nearly all of them and I get both Shreveport and Little Rock channel. Just like one day a Little Rock channel promoted heavily on how it will feature a story at 10 about how crooks are using facebook to steal from ya. It was nothing more than a 20 second anchor read. Some were so horrible I can't even remember them. One channel promoted the abuse of food stamps...i tuned it every time they said they were gonna run the story but never saw it...Maybe I blinked my eye.


Besides the unusual "news stories" the average viewer should be able to pickup something is going on by the notion none of the main anchors are on vacation....and they are all dressed up when they usually wear casual clothes. Or when they all report news that doesn't happen in Little Rock. Will be glad when the sweeps are over and all the over the top "news stories" are finally done for another period.
