If you read the venerable Boing Boing every day, which you should, you may have seen this post yesterday about a kitty born right here in Sacramento with a marking that looks a lot like “I ” on its fur. The kitten’s mommy’s name is Dottie so it’s ever so adowable.
Too bad, though, that Boing Boing didn’t go straight to News10’s story on the wittle kitty, including the mixed and produced video, instead linking to KAUX out of Texoma, which has a much shorter story and the raw video only, complete with traffic noise and videographers’ voices. And is, you know, in Texoma rather than Sacramento where the wittle kitty wesides.

Well, moving on… Did anybody else see the head-to-head 50 year anniversary specials on KCRA and News10 on Saturday night? One thing it proved to me is that local news shows see horrific local tragedies and think it’s their time to shine. The parade of memorable moments from both stations seemed more like a “Here’s to the worst things you’ve lived through” marathon. But as usual, with a local angle. For example, here is News10’s page dedicated to its top stories of the 70s and 80s. Explosions, crashes, disasters, murder, and Elvis. One of the most horrifying segments my wife and I witnessed was the capture of a kidnapper, caught on tape by News10. During the report, police on the scene discovered, in real time, another missing girl in a cardboard box in the creep’s trunk. Live on the TV news!

Graswich reports that Jennifer Smith got demoted by News10.
This is one of many MANY changes for News10. They are hiring for a multitude of positions. Moving an icon like Smith is just another domino in what looks to be a massive overhaul.
Smith will land on her feet, perhaps with one of the other two stations (Fox40 doesn’t count, nor will it likely ever). But this is a damn curious move, and one that will most likely leave News10 with egg on their face.
