When a good idea goes bad.

So, you run a news channel and want people to be able to notify their employees/school children of closings or delays during a snow event.  And to make it easy, you let people post it over the internet with limited editorial (or stupid editors) oversight.  

This is what you get.

I am, but when you come across something that good, you have to post it.

not sure if you checked the message board but all that happened two years ago.  funny as hell.  I doubt many tv stations will do anything like that in the future.
Never, but never question the engineers judgement.
