Now, I didn't say 30 years of experience. I said they've BEEN there for 30 years. Which really has a lot to do with people watching what was once the only local newscast out of habit. I know as well as you do that just because they've been there 30 years doesn't mean the news staff (or much anyone else) has been. I know of 2, maybe 3 employees who have been there longer than 15 years. And none in the news department.
And I did not fall for one of their promos. The fact of the matter is that there are a lot of viewers out there who watch KTVZ news, many of whom are not going to change their habits.
