News for Thursday, June 28th, 2018

(note from the author: I had decided to delay posting a report named "News for Wednesday, June 27th, 2018" until sometime between the time this one was posted and the Sunday of the first day of the month of July for this calendar year after having decided this one would be more suitable to post at this time due to its timeliness, its variety of subjects, and its length (hence: it has more paragraphs dedicated to different subjects and more letters than the other one))

• The main broadcast channel for WPMI-TV occasionally had audible beeps before appearing to have had a digital ticker with text related to weather over some of its video (including network programs from their main provider of such programming (the National Broadcasting Company (NBC)) this Thursday.  

• The local news program that appeared on the main broadcast channel for WKRG-TV during the first half of the hour of 12:00 p.m. this Thursday ("WKRG News 5 at Noon") appeared to have had its news presenter (Devon Walsh) saying, "A inmate who escaped from his work release site in Bay Minette is back in custody. Twenty-nine-year-old James Hubbard had been on the run since around eleven o'clock yesterday morning. He was captured about that time last night -- I'd say around ten o'clock last night" for one of its reports.

• The local news program that appeared on the main broadcast channel for WKRG-TV during the second half of the hour of 6:00 p.m. this Thursday ("WKRG News 5 at 6:30") appeared to have had some digital graphics related to weather (including what appeared to had been a map of counties in their local broadcast area and a ticker with text related to weather) superimposed over certain parts of its programming feed that was not usually part of its programming in recent times (note: the same graphics were also part of its programming during its breaks from having the news program in that period of time this Thursday).  

• The local news program that appeared on the main broadcast channel for WKRG-TV during the first half of the hour of 5:00 p.m. this Thursday ("WKRG News 5 at 5") appeared to have had one of its news presenters (Devon Walsh) saying, "Tonight in the web center: this is a night we have been dreading for a long time" and its other news presenter (Rose Ann Haven) saying, "Yes, we have to say good bye to someone who's been part of this show and WKRG for nearly the past five years. News 5's J. B. Biunno is getting married and moving to Tampa" before appearing to have had them and a certain reporter named "J. B. Biunno" (or Joseph Blake Biunno) interacting with each other immediately awards (note: a certain Facebook page related to WKRG-TV appeared to had some live video of this part of the program and some live video of the reporter appearing alone that was not on the program afterwards).

• The local news program that appeared on the main broadcast channel for WKRG-TV during the first half of the hour of 10:00 p.m. this Thursday ("WKRG News 5 at 10") appeared to have had one of its news presenters (Rose Ann Haven) saying, "The News 5 weather alert day is over...as strong lines of storms pass through our area, but the worst is behind us and the skies will be clearing soon. To tell you more about today's weather, here's Taylor Sarallo filling in for chief meteorologist Alan Sealls" while appearing to have had some video with texts of "WEATHER ALERT DAY OVER" and "COVERING THE GULF COAST" and some digital boxes with live videos of two separate locations with texts of "MOBILE" and "PENSACOLA" under them, an animated sequence with text of "WEATHER AWARE" immediately afterwards, and one of its reporters (a weather reporter named Taylor Sarallo) in front of a digital map saying, "You are absolutely right: the worst is over" immediately afterwards. 

• The local news program that appeared on the main broadcast channel for WALA-TV during the hour of 9:00 p.m. on the Tuesday of the twenty-sixth day of this June ("FOX 10 News at 9:00 p.m.") appeared to have had one of its news presenters (Bob Grip) saying, "Meantime I've been reading through an engineering report commissioned by the city on Ladd-Peebles Stadium. That report is dated October twenty-sixteen. In it, Barter and Associates gave Ladd a D plus grade; it said it found problems that constituted an emergency and threatened the safety of the public. It also said those deficiencies were corrected. Now the Ladd-Peebles board didn't learn about the report until last week and, of course that raises some questions. One: why weren't the results of that study made public immediately? Was the city afraid the Senior Bowl leaving town? Should you, the people in sit in the stands and allow your children to play there, have known about it? Investigative reporter Kati Weis will be asking those questions and more tomorrow. Watch for her report tomorrow on FOX 10 News". 

• The local news program that appeared on the main broadcast channel for WKRG-TV during the first half of the hour of 6:00 p.m. this Thursday ("WKRG News 5 at 6") appeared to have had one of its reporters (a sports reporter named Robby Baker) saying, "Michy Batshuayi tries to punt the ball in celebration except for a ricochets and smacks him right in the face. Now I've watched this multiple times -- I feel bad kind of for laughing at it -- the good news is he's fine and perhaps he learned to try not to punt the ball like that when you're so close to the goal like that. When celebrations go bad", one of its news presenters (Devon Walsh) saying, "At least it didn't knock him out" afterwards, the reporter saying, "Right he was fine; he came back; he hurt a little bit" immediately afterwards, and the news presenter saying, "Thank you, Robby. We'll be right back" immediately afterwards immediately before one of its breaks from appearing in the channel in that period of time (note: he program that appeared on the channel during the first half of the hour of 10:00 p.m. later this Thursday appeared to have had the same reporter saying, "It's Michy Batshuayi in the celebration -- we're going to have it here in slow motion -- he attempts to punt the ball in slow motion here off the rail, -- off the [balance] into his face. I've watched this video a ton of times and I feel bad, it still makes me laugh, Rose Ann, but it's a good reminder that even if you're really good at soccer, sports can still be hard. The good news is...he's ok. Maybe he's just a little shocked to have been there", a different news presenter (Rose Ann Haven) saying, "Yeah, probably just a little scosh embarrassed" immediately afterwards, the reporter saying, "Skoshed, I like that" immediately afterwards, and the news presenter saying, "We got a little more to come. A skosh more. We'll be right back" immediately afterwards.
