TV viewers vented on social media after PBS aired a pre-taped July 4 fireworks display Monday in lieu of live footage.
The sky was overcast Monday night in Washington, D.C., so PBS chose instead to air what it called "a combination of the best fireworks from this year and previous years," a decision greeted with mostly derision by its audience.

As if any sane person trusts liberal networks...especially the one that takes tax dollars for their lying and corruption.

N.Y. and Boston had the WORST shows ever. Screeching howling “talent” I’ve never heard of. It was torture. At least they did the traditional music for the fireworks lead in at Boston; but the taped music was so terrible I turned it off. I LOVE fireworks but I couldn’t take the audio abuse. Ruined everything.

Do the PBS viewers also realize the burning yule log on TV at Christmas isn’t live?
To: ClearBlueSky
WINS suspends news coverage to air music simulcast with the fireworks. Ohhhh.

PaulyPaul :" Almost all of public television’s commentary is complete make-believe,
why wouldn’t it’s fireworks coverage be fake, too?"
The libs are upset that their propaganda machine
got caught lying to them (the libs).
You can screw with the liberal news and news broadcast, as they do
but don't screw with our fireworks ! ( LMAO !)
