did anyone else loss access to NBC last night? i live on cap hill and it went out last night and is not yet back up.
thanks
I only watch King 5 for one reason: Jesse Jones!
He IS the man, he has capitalized on the "By Mennen" effect, explained in depth on a classic episode of "Seinfeld"
If you hear a phrase long enough, its sure to catch on. And i love how he ends with saying "Jesse Jones, King-5 News", exactly the same way every time. It really sticks. He used to be a field reporter, and I believe the fact that he has his own segment now is directly linked to him branding his own name.
Go Jesse Jones, King-5 News, you the man, man!!

I just read their weather page. That's why I am writing this review.
Personally I am happy to no longer clutter my life with a tv. So the weather and horrible economy reports and scintillating traffic accident reports I don't have to watch anymore.
All I wanted to know is .. is there snow in the state?
I can't tell from their colorful interactive choppy weather page.
Another reviewer said, "well this is Seattle, they can't ever get weather right."
No kidding!
I amo ut of work. Can I have a weather man job? I don't need any skill.
Oh, look, the day will begin. Oh,my, it's a bit cold. Oh, it will warm up a bit and we will have snow or rain or both and some wind and a tiny clearing. Then more of all of it.

I like news..i try to stay atop of things..so i get my info from king 5 usually....and the 4 reasons why...
1. jesse jones- u dont mess with jesse..and i like how he closes out his segment saying his name
2. lisa gangel- she needs to go national in sports..good at her job..and easy on the eyes
3. danger jim foreman...if there is a crisis..jim is around the corner...and his hair is something to be seen
4. carolyn douglas- good anchor...good banter when news is slow...hot as hell
i will stay with king 5 for those reasons
King 5 is super.
Home of the 'stache heard 'round the world:

Other than that, I mix up all the other talking heads.
PS - Jim Foreskin has the nickname for a reason...I heard it on high authority.

Helllooo??!!! MIMI JUNG!!!!
This is my fav news channel for reliable information in Seattle. The traffic is always right. I love Jeff the weather guy but do not plan on the weather man ever being right in seattle. They have great sportsmanship with our sports teams and local schools. They do need a newer female fresh face to replace Jean she's getting not so appreasing to look at, she looks sick. She is in charge of health link you would think she would look the best!!
There's really nothing wrong with King 5 news, I've just never "connected" with the station. KIRO gets the breaking news faster and KOMO has old familar faces I know. It's a well rounded station, and these things can be subjective. Try it. You might like it.
King 5 used to be my favorite until I asked for a little help with a school assignment...all I needed was a photo of one of the anchors, and something with the logo on it. They basically kicked me out of the lobby and told me that the only person who could help me was going to be on vacation for a month. No love for the community! Plus the receptionist has tattooed eyeliner, creepy.
