Goodbye from VNN

Cassie325 · 10-02-2008, 01:17 PM

OH...I actually like the station....feel good news is good for us once in a while...takes us away from the reality of this crazy world sometimes...I LIKE the BUBBLE.....

Anyway....I was thinking maybe Chelsea and Cabo or Bucco could be the debaters....oh....I am starting trouble again...but all in good fun...we all love each other regardless.

This the second mass firing that they've done of which I am aware. The last was right after 'W' came to LSL for his campaign. As soon as TV got the footage they wanted for their ads the crew was terminated w/o warning.

Oh come on...........VNN has always been and will always be news and happenings in the villages. If you want anything else go to the networks. It's a source of events that have happened and those scheduled to appear here. It's a social bulletin board........get over it.

That was not Gary Morse addressing the VHA. You'll never see Gary Morse in person. He spends all his time on his yacht.

It was Mark Morse that addressed the VHA and slammed the POA about 2 months ago.

Skip...you amaze me at the amount of knowledge you have about TV's and the family....do you know them personally? It seems so hard to get information about them as I am sure they try to keep private....but you SEEM to have the inside scoop....just HOW do you do it? I am sure you can tell me....but then would have to kill me??

If you watched VNN in the old days they had quite a few good , interesting
and informative shows. The staff were most all experienced broadcast
people. Just like all jobs in The Villages, you must put up and shut up or out you go.

So product declined and declined and declined and now this show is just
an elaborate advertisement for the Daily Sun.

chuckster · 10-03-2008, 05:08 PM

Doubt the experienced part...........nice, definitely nice folks, but VNN was a training ground like many small stations and then they move on to a larger station and better paying positions.

The "programming" is just a rehash of the stories in the Daily Sun...what a joke...hardly qualifies as a TV station. One can only hope they are reworking the concept and something better will be broadcast soon.

I like VNN because it just tells good stories about things that are happening in the Villages. It is nice to see good stories about interesting people. It is such a welcome change from who killed who and who is on drugs and in rehab or who robbed and murdered some lady for six dollars. There is plenty of that going on in the world.
The newspaper is mostly soft news. So what, if you want a real paper buy USA or the Orlando Paper. It is what it is, a paper that lets you know what is going on in the Villages. So it only prints the good stuff. That is what this forum is for, the real scope. And some of you really find out what is really going on and I read it everyday.

Judylou,

with you. It is lighthearted news that doesnt drag you down and at times , in fact most of the time, that is what I like to hear. Call me an ostrich but it just makes me feel good to watch vnn, Ill be sorry to see it go.

You mean I will no longer be able to see the same dreary TAPED media for 24 hours in a row? You mean they might actually slip up and have some REAL news or even worse, a LIVE broadcast of anything?? Heaven forbid!

SabrmnLgs,

There are press reports on the net that Jessica Kiss been working as an anchor at the Fox News station in Savannah, GA for some time. I guess she's also one of the bachelorettes on The Bachelor TV show. I'm guessing that was just part-time.

chuckster · 10-04-2008, 04:34 AM

Pretty gal...........she was on last seasons show. Like others have said VNN is soft news, a local social calendar and a training ground for bigger, better paying jobs. Want the real world blood and guts change the channel.

jflynn1 · 10-04-2008, 05:48 AM

This is probaly a prelude to introducing Fox News, and Limbaugh on a regular basis.
Easy to fix don't watch

Goodbye from VNN
