We always watched the NBC affiliate since I was a kid, the anchors were Chris Jansing (now of MSNBC) and Ed Dague who was known as a local progressive spokesman. And I promised another DUer years ago that I'd never watch the local CBS affiliate news since the infamous female anchor gave her brother a hard time because she was reporting live and the brother's band was hired to play in the same area and she demanded that they stop playing.
