And Appliance repairmen are not a thing anymore.

Its troubling how TV news has declined so badly these days, particularly the local news. Constant misspellings (usually not as bad as the one above!), mispronounciations of local cities and streets, showing the wrong videos for a news items, etc. Occassionally, there is a LMAO that makes up for all the face-palms. Like this oldie, but goodie from my neck of the woods:

Sounds like the reporters were being pranked.

That reporter got fired.

Three producers got fired. The anchor continued to work there for two years.

This is the backstory. At least according to this guy:



The anchor, Tori Campbell was furious about the mistake. She stayed with KTVU for a while longer but eventually did move on.

No doubt. Hence her station nickname Sum Dum Ho.

So bad. Making fun of a prane clash!

Ah, I heard the anchor got fired. I thought that was wrong of the station.

Something is wrong with that picture. There are no wharfs on the ocean/west side of the bridge. Should it be flipped horizontal like this? But then there shouldn't be so many lights at the Golden Gate National Recreation Area.

Something about that picture is wrong.

It's the bay bridge, Embarcadero in the foreground.

Ah Yes I see now.

I'm on the lookout for strange stuff ever since I got a post card of Acadia where they flipped a spot of scenery I know very well on the horizontal to make the post card look better but the photo was totally wrong.

I HATE that!
To people who do it for compositional reasons -
It NEVER looks better. It just provokes subliminal cognitive dissonance and a negative association.
DON'T DO IT

Risking making you puke, here is a photo I took of the real place. I've been there over 100 times.



Here is that horrible post card flipped horizontal.

Maybe the photographer is dyslexic?

 

[Bomb#20]

Maybe the photographer is dyslexic?

Or it could mean the photographer is the righteous man and it's the world that's dyslexic. And I'd like that. But that ain't the truth.

 

[SLD]

Doesn’t look too bad this way. Not sure why he felt the need to flip it.

The photo on the cover of this book is flipped - apparently so that the title doesn’t overlap the Capitol building. The result is the largest gathering of left handed frisbee people ever.

Oh, and I’m in this photo. My face is right behind the “cto” of the author’s name.
