Channel One News getting sloppy.

From Jim Metrock: Channel One News is a taped show. Even though there is less pressure with a canned program, mistakes pop up on the program.  This may be because Channel One News is more about advertising than journalism. Students watching Channel One News see U.S. Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn) discussing the Russia investigation.  However,...

Channel One News brings back Maggie to fill up air time.

From Jim Metrock: The big star this week on Channel One News was Maggie Rulli.  Maggie Rulli!? Didn’t she quit Channel One News over a year ago? This is how Channel One works: if a news subject is somewhat timely, and Channel One has some old videos on that subject, they will simply replay...

One-sided story on Kaepernick raises questions about Channel One News.

Channel One News demeans Civil Rights icon, tells students Kaepernick may be a modern day Rosa Parks. Kids told multi-millionaire Kaepernick is a helpless victim of corporations. Chilling transformation underway at Channel One News: More slanted news, more editorializing. From Jim Metrock:  Channel One’s lovefest for Colin Kaepernick is disgusting. This follows Channel One’s bizarre...

We’ll give you three… er, two minutes.

From Jim Metrock: Channel One has never been popular in Massachusetts.  Does the name “Billerica” sound familiar? It’s hilarious how the Dudley-Charlton school district in Dudley, MA “honors” their Channel One contract. Channel One’s contract states: 4) The School agrees to receive the Channel One News programs from Channel One and to show the...

The district’s Davis-Emerson Middle School has proudly shown...

  From Jim Metrock:  It’s not working out. Channel One News limps into this new school year with an audience problem and a packaging problem. The “good old days” of over 8 million students in its captive audience are gone. Students at schools that still technically show the program, don’t see the program.  Since...
