Now that's rich
Our local Fox affiliate has come up with one of those really snappy graphics just especially for the NYC transit strike! In between every single break in the action, say throwing it back to the anchor, throwing it over to the weather, throwing it over to SkyChopper 5, the good people at Fox 5 NY have decided to inform its citizenry with this flashy, full-screen, half-second PSA:
ILLEGAL TRANSIT STRIKE
OK Thanks. We're now moving out to Long Island to see how people are coping there.
ILLEGAL TRANSIT STRIKE
Hey, how about those Giants?
ILLEGAL TRANSIT STRIKE
And so on. By the way ILLEGAL is in bright red. Now that's good propaganda!
I think I saw that graphic 30 times in 10 minutes. Am going out now to punch a bus driver for some reason.
