A Bad Day On The WGN Morning News

[Joe Hass]

This morning, the WGN Morning News decided to show the implosion of
the Seneca bridge live from southwest of Joliet. Giving you any more
information spoils this two-minute video.

Well, at least there wasn't an obscene word uttered, as tends to
happen when some things are demolished...

Seems as if YouTube pulled it. Can't see it on my mobile or home computer.

Gmail embedded the video in Joe's post and it played just fine for me.
I don't participate in discussions about TV news any more, because for
me the horse left the barn a long time ago, but in strict news terms
the news team were reporting on a bridge implosion and they adequately
reported when the bridge had been imploded. Missing the spectacle
doesn't affect the news value at all.
