Basement Containing NBC 24 Studios Found


South Toledo-

Confirming long standing suspicion that NBC 24 is not a real news cast FCC investigators found the basement containing the sub par studios today. FCC crews arrived at a house located at 2345 Byrne Road at 1:30 pm this afternoon to find the “news” staff preparing for their 6pm news cast. FCC spokesman Chris DeWitt said:

“Upon entering the house we found four “staff” members huddled around a stack of milk crates with a sign that read “Bullpen” taped to the side. Norm Van Ness was found throwing darts at a board with pictures of a sun, rain, clouds and snow. Jim Tichey was finishing the scores for the Toledo Goal Diggers vs Flint Generals game in 1973. Station Manager Brian Coswell was found watching tapes of elementary kids giving the morning announcements and proclaimed he was looking for Toledo’s next star to anchor the 6pm newscast”

Shortly after FCC officials arrived Michael Schlesinger’s mom ordered the entire news team and research staff upstairs to wash their hands before dinner.

NBC 24 has long been the forgotten child of the Northwest Ohio news scene, always trailing their major competitors at WTVG and WTOL led to the decision to add two more newscast at 7:00 pm and 7:30 pm. Attempting to blaze a new trail in Toledo news coverage NBC 24 officials believe that viewers will turn from Everybody Loves Raymond and King of Queens re-runs to watch news that was already covered on channels 11 and 13 between 5:00pm and 6:30 pm.

Mikah Smith one of NBC 24’s thirteen views said

“I live 3 doors down from the house and before this digital cable change over NBC 24 was the only station I could get on my rabbit ears so I had to watch, I’ll admit I do miss Blizzard Bill Spencer, no one could deliver a weather forecast wrong 95% of the time like Ol’ Blizzard Bill”
