From Jim Metrock:
Channelone.com is the official website of Channel One News. This week it has a new look, but unfortunately the same, tired content. The site mirrors the in-school TV show in its lack of concern about current events and hard news.
The shock one has on first visiting the website, is like entering a building expecting to hear a formal lecture, only to find a carnival… and not a good carnival at that.
Channel One’s on-air personalities are instructed to tell kids several times each program to “go to channelone.com.” The TV show has to drive students to the site so they can see the advertising on the site.
