Long long long time ago it wasn't. But that's when the founder of Capitol Broadcasting was still alive - AJ Fletcher. Its very disappointing how far they have fallen TBF. I worked for WRAL a couple of different times and it was leftwing leaning sure, but not ridiculously biased and BLM-nasty like it is now. Sadly I must agree with your assessment.
I have been here since 1991 & honestly I can not believe just how bad they have gotten. Actually it is all of the “news”. World-wide. This though really got me upset.
No way, absolutely no way they could not have known how bad of an idea it was to post such an insult to Mr. Robinson. I did see that Mr. Robinson was complete class dealing with it. I give him props because I would have wanted to punch whomever posted that crap.
That is wild that you have worked for them though! I could not imagine what that would look like.
Back in the 80s and 90s and even up to 7 or 8 years ago WRAL was still the flagship station of solid journalism and fearless investigative reporting. As I said, I worked for them as a broadcast engineer when I was still in college (not as cool as it sounds) and then came back as a producer/writer in the creative division and finally a freelancer for the news dept after I had left ABC News and returned to NC. It was always the station of record in NC even against Charlotte's WBT and WSOC. Now....pretty much everyone who was a true "journalist" has left and been replaced by astonishingly ignorant twenty-somethings and far left wing activists. As POTUS would say..sad.
WRAL has always been a steaming 💩 pile.
