“... our listeners would have been misled by usage of an impersonator...”

Sounds like they won’t be running any ads from Obama!

Sounds like the ad they ran against Steve Chabot (OH-1) in 2006, he was re-elected.

Yes, BUT do you remember when WRCP changed both their TV and radio call signs to “KYW” in the swap in the early 60’s? As a kid, that was confusing...was “Wally Kinan, the weatherman” part of Channel 3?

I only got the radio side.

I was an insomniac even as a child, but the repetitive nature of the news would put me to sleep.

Wally Kinan was the worst weatherman I ever saw. He would regularly say things like Todays high will be between 73 and 90 degrees.

He was never wrong.

Yeah but that was the old “flannelgraph” days of TV Meteorology when they would “hang” the sun and/or clouds on the board BUT didn’t Wally do all his with markers...(one of those guys was a decent artist)?

I don't know about your Wally, but to me, THIS was the best weatherman ever. One of his best performances, too.

Pretty surprising considering KWY has always been a pretty Liberal station.
