The Worcester police department has released a memo (posted by Worcesteria here) that describes a new public relations policy that favors ' local radio stations and television station' at the expense of print outlets. This is pretty clearly a shot at the Telegram and Gazette's reporting on various police matters.
We'll leave the issue of the T&G's reporting for another day. I'm most intrigued by the designation of local TV stations as a preferred outlet. Remembering that Worcester has no local broadcast television station (see FCC database), we do have to wonder where all this great new information will appear.
I wondered about that, too.
ReplyDeleteThere's WUNI, which has always been the "worcester tv station", despite it now being all Spanish language programming... I doubt they meant that one.
Maybe they meant cable 13 (public access) or cable 12 (government)? I mean, it is, after all, "TV".
