What a ridiculous pissing match. Audio retransmission of local television news belongs on AM or the nearest non-comm. NOT on a music station.

"Belongs" is an interesting word.....

Mix 101.5 WRAL-FM in Raleigh has been reapproaching the top of late, and it simulcasts a 6:00 newscast....

And I listen whenever I can.

That said, WRAL-TV has the best TV news I've ever seen. So Mix is retransmitting a really GOOD product.

Indeed! WRAL is an HDTV news pioneer. One of the best run news operations this side of the Mississippi.
