Tegna's Mismanagement Cost Des Moines the Oscars

 I am here consolidating 2 Stories that I could not hold my tongue about, how Tegna's Mismanagement got so bad that they cost a major market (Des Moines) the Oscars and Rehka Basu's Oscar Viewing Streak was snapped by a Black Screen and she made a post about it.

Tegna's Mismanagement has made WOI not only a Regular Last Place in Des Moines, but in Iowa. And to make it all worse, this is the Television Home of the State Tournament and the State Championship and High School Sports.

This Oscar Snub has to be the last straw not only in a Major Movie Market, but, a Major Mediacom Market and the Tegna-Mediacom Tiff has been a nondiscussion for a couple months.The chicanery of a proud station started with "My Favorite Stadium" John Walters's Transfer to Iowa State and the chicanes have not stopped since.

To be fair, there have been lawsuits (April Samp) where she wanted to restore class to a class Sports Department and this is making a class dial look even worse. This is the Kurt Busch J-O-K-E rant and this is not a J-O-K-E.

Oscar Snubs become an annual thing, and this snub had nothing to do with Chadwick Bozeman being scarily jilted by Anthony Hopkins and the Des Moines Area has every right to be grouchy over this snub.

I feel they need either Tegna to shortsell for their Corporate Irresponsibility or Mediacom to have a Chief Rival in Des Moines. Sadly, we are already in hell freezing over, and that hell freezing over has much, much to do with the Oscars Color TV Lows.

You do not want to see Color TV Lows with the Oscars or the Rose Bowl, which Des Moines had a helping hand in both.
