Default News Story on Poker Legislation

http://www.13wham.com/mediacenter/de...videoId=180212

Click on "Game Over for Internet Poker" to watch.

I'm the reporter who put this story together, and I thought it would be appropriate to show this forum how local news is handling the new law. I recognize my own bias, but I tried to balance that while presenting the facts. Also, we're extremely limited on time in local news, and I tried to cram a lot in during a short span.

So is the lead-in to WHAM's morning news show "Wake me up before you go go"?

On a more serious note, I think this was a very good piece.

It looked well-presented to me, considering the time restrictions. Thanks.

Not bad. It sounded pretty balanced to me.

Dude, I didn't know that you were a news reporter here in Rochester. I can't watch your bit while at work, but I'll catch it when I get home. Maybe I'll have to start watching the evening news to see a bona fide 2+2 celeb [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
