Channel 13 has been my favorite local news since moving to Rochester 14 years ago. Evan Dawson particularly stands out right now as an excellent news person.

I have to admit that sometimes Channel 8 was a close second for me, but this one story (and I do mean story, and not reporting the facts) has totally turned me off. As I said in my letter to Channel 8…”You turned me off, so I’m turning you off.”

I caught it on R News and they spelled Jon Powers’ name wrong. They also focused on the national message and Dean’s refusal to answer questions.

I was there and it was so energizing.

What?? Dean was in Rochester for an Eric Massa fundraiser? Gee, according to Channel 8’s 11 PM news you might have thought he was here only to talk about Hillary vs. Obama and to refuse to answer questions.

Having attended both events with Howard Dean, I look forward to RT’s perspective. I certainly didn’t get any reporting from Channel 8 on what actually happened when Dean came to Rochester.
