Pardon the interruption
Around 12:30 pm PST or so, with the Oregon State Beavers marching downfield but trailing Missouri 17-14 in the first half, CBS broke into the Sun Bowl for coverage of Gerald R. Ford's funeral. Instead of "The Beavs" viewers were treated to Katie Couric looking all serious about--Gerald R. Ford.
So right now the worst job in the state of Oregon by far is phone operator at KOIN-TV, the Portland CBS affiliate.
Nothing against Ford, but it's not like CBS couldn't stick one of those crawl things at the bottom of the screen.
In other news, Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
As I post this, the teams have gone to halftime with Missouri leading 17-14. Luckily coverage may be resuming. Let's hope viewers won't miss singing sensation Rihanna at halftime.
Our media hates us.
