Choose A, B or C

Let's have some Friday Fun.

Notice the sentence circled in RED, below.

Now, choose the answer that best explains the error.

A = No one reads the excrement they write.

B = No one is smart enough to recognize an error has been made.

C = No one really cares because they plan on being in a larger market by this time next year. 

Here's your puzzle, choose wisely. 


Actually, the answer is D "all of the above".

How about that time that WANE TV published a news story at 10:39 in the morning that was going to happen that afternoon at 5:20? Future News! 

Then there was the confusion about what a Tractor Pull looks like. The folks in Arcola sure got chuckle out of this one: 

While this all might seem a little embarrassing to some, others take all this in stride. In fact, rumor is that the kids in the WANE TV marketing department are crafting a new positioning statement. 

Wait for it....(maven has been waiting a long time to use that line)

Tada: "WANE TV at least we're not WPTA21". 

Catchy, huh?

  2. Thank you for the comment, Mr. Gordon. Don't worry, the WOWO archive is fat and action-packed. It's a most effective example of the Peter Principle at work. Take care.
