Too many link sales, car washes, visits to festivals, parades, etc., by all 3 stations on the weekend. Hell, one of the stations had nothing but the oil spill, nothing really local, and there coverage on the spill was nothing but pulled from the network on Sat.

Yeah. Because the big expose they planned to show on a holiday weekend got spiked by the damn editor.
Stupid comment.

What's the deal with Patrick Vaughn tonight @ 5pm? Couldn't talk, had the days on the forecast all jacked up, had he been drinking beer at the BBQ before he came to work?

Holiday news really sucked. All I saw on 12 was guy pointing a gun at a cop, power outage and a pit bull attack on a child. Come on, when are we going to see some real news?

I watch Channel 6 anytime I need to take a nap because they put me to sleep. Channel 12 sucks....and Fox...enough said. Word on Facebook is that Mike McNerd got some surgery done. Friends of his say he's walking around like he's that old weatherman Bob Becker.

Was it Becker that got the Pecker in his ass?

God I would hate to go through life without one orginal thought. Has the telepromptor taken over your brains to the level I have read here and on several other post. I bet if one person on a local station expressed a thought, he or she would shine. What's your thought on BISD?

Hey, why did Dana have the kid with him this afternoon at 3pm.....Hoping the kid would get the weather forecast right?

Six minute meals is the best thing they have going for them.....never mind the first meal was a nightmare for heart patients.

It's funny to watch these dumbass teabagger BETTER BISD petition Nazis trying to coerce the ill-informed to sign. Looks like nobody cares. 12,000 signatures? Yeah! And Beaumont is going Rebulbican. Hey, how's that South Park thingy going? Hehehehe

Anybody notice how all the TV and Radio folks are pushing Twitter and Facebook? Good luck on catching an actual news story on anything online and local. A thousand ways to get local news, yet not one actual informative update...

"Do you think cats need sweaters? Click Here!"

"If you think your kids are too fat, take our survey!"

"Local teen pops a zit! Tune in at 9 for all the details!"

Or my personal favorite, you see an actual headline, then look at the time posted... Hmmmm, 28 hours old. What's the purpose of even BeFanning these sites, books and tweets if the updates are too CrapTastic to even waste your eyes' time on...

Hurr-rumph!

LOL...paying attention to little old fox 4?

Sad when you have to have a gimmick to get attention. What a joke.

Hmm....get my hurricane update from an idiot who "raps" or someone with a littl reputation?

I finally wasted my time and watched the "rapping" weatherman.......Is this the best Channel 4 can do?
Channel 4, shut it down and go to the house. Get some reruns of House or 24 or The Simpsons. I'll bet they'll get better ratings than the shit you put on at 4 and 9.

Still waiting for that cat in a tree story..... can you post the link or were you just being Phil?

Did KBTV get those reruns of the Simpsons?

Someone who knows... said...

Last time I check, The Simpson killed everything in its time period.. So, yeah, I will take the Simpsons..Did you hear the FOX once again for a record 6 straight year won every demo this past season??

It has got to be better than what KBTV is putting on at 4pm now....
Then at 9pm you can tell us about wrecks in Vidor, link sales at the Methodist Church, and Dana can get his dart board out and "guess" the weather.

Supreme Court Issues Emergency Stay in Beaumont Blogger Case
Austin - June 4, 2010

On June 4, 2010, the Texas Supreme Court issued a highly unusual emergency stay in a case in which Beaumont trial judge Donald Floyd of the 172nd District Court had ordered internet search giant Google to reveal the identities of two anonymous bloggers whose websites criticize notorious east Texas public figure Philip R. Klein. The high court’s order trumps the April 29, 2010, ruling by Beaumont’s Ninth Court of Appeals, which had denied the bloggers’ request for a stay, and prevents Judge Floyd’s order from being enforced.

“We are pleased that the Supreme Court recognizes the important First Amendment right to criticize public figures anonymously,” said Houston constitutional law attorney Jeffrey L. Dorrell, who represents the bloggers.

“This is an American tradition that goes all the way back to Benjamin Franklin writing commentary pretending to be an elderly widow named Silence Dogood,” Dorrell said. Klein argued that websites www.operationkleinwatch.blogspot.com and www.samtheeagleusa.blogspot.com’s content were “pure defamation” and not entitled to constitutional protection. Klein’s suit also alleges that Google is in a “conspiracy” with the bloggers to defame him. Google has remained neutral in the suit.

“Satirical parody can be harsh, but if Saturday Night Live got sued every time it made fun of Sarah Palin or Barack Obama, television would be a pretty barren source of amusement,” said Dorrell. “And I can’t think of anyone in southeast Texas who deserves to be made fun of more than Philip Klein,” Dorrell added.

Today’s ruling was the latest in a suit in which Klein alleges that the bloggers have defamed him by, among other things, a parody of Dog Fancy magazine in which he was depicted under the caption, “Fat Men Who Love Their Dogs Too Much,” according to papers filed in the case. The Supreme Court’s ruling protects the bloggers’ anonymity while the court considers further arguments.

I don't get it. Phil's bag is trashing people with "sources say" as his "proof." Then he files a lawsuit because.... because.... why again?

Anonymous said...

Wait, last week Klein said that Google had turned over the identities to his lawyer and that he was filing a lawsuit in Federal court this week.

So what's the truth Philip? Or was that just another one of your lies?

I Philip bit off more than he can chew. Looks like the bloggers turned the dogs loose.

Again, this is not Philip Klein. The way I have read it the document shows a stay until oral arguments and pleadings can be had on if the 202 filing was followed by law. A lot of nothing it seems. Thank you for the link.

Anonymous said...

That post makes no sense Philip. You are an idiot. Sam and Gus must file a brief in support of their argument by July 5th. Your attorney must file a responsive brief by the end of July. Sam and Gus then have until the first part of August to reply. You should call John and have him explain to you what is going on instead of pretending that you have a clue.

Did I say you were an idiot?

Hey "Reporter in Beaumont". Who do you work for and do they know that you have the grammatical skills of a third grader?

DuPont Retired said...

Me and my wife Doris just moved to Beaumont last October. We noticed that there are a lot a blacks running around our neighbood after dark. The realtor, who said she knows the area really well and is connected to the county gov't said that there wouldn't be a problem like this. Me and Doris think she lied to us. They have already torn up my grandchild's scooter. We will be moving out of Beaumont.

To All :

You will see a change on our front page Tuesday by noon. We will be taking down the local bloggers section and replacing it with some other kind of who knows what. This morning I read the Trog Blog and there is simply no control to it. It is pretty funny to read however - to see almost every single topic turn into something about me is a hoot. If I write on Trog - I sign it - not like those mindless pussy's that are too scared to sign their names. As we went through this with Bob and had some back channel communication (s) with some that I am accused of writing about - I have made the decision to drop the blog from the front page. It will be gone tomorrow so file it under your favorites. As well I will not be reading it nor will I ever post there again. I wish Trog luck on their blog - but this is goodbye. So goodbye. From now on - nothing gets on the front page without being monitored by it's producer. Enough is enough. You guys go at it and have fun.

Hey KBMT, why do you keep showing the picture of Churches Chicken in the motorcycle wreck on FM 105 at FM 2802 in Vidor? The nearest Churches in 7 miles away.
Also, while Bert looks good in his khaki suit, you need to tell him not to wear it all the time. Buy the man a blue blazer or a grey jacket.( BTW: Bert is a damn good weatherman.)

I want to know how anyone can watch KJAC? That is a huge dumpsterfire! I hear Channel 12 is getting a spanish station and possibly 2 more stations. You guys are a bunch of dumb asses. Nobody is watching and NOW REALLY NO ONE is going to watch. No Body's Channel (NBC)..Good luck Greg Bostwick on your retirement coming up. Now Channel 6 is screwed without their best weather guy!

I saw where that Dupont guy was talking about all the blacks running around Beaumont after dark. I went outside my townhome the other night and there two black kids stealing my neighbor's SUV. Glad that I caught them. They ran off. I called the Beaumont Police but they just said there was nothing they could do and I should go back inside.
