Good lists. Somehow Fox29 hiring of Thomas Drayton didnt make the list. He continues to make mistake after mistake on the air. Hopefully station managements cringes when they see Dave Huddleston on CBS3.

The death of Jessica Savitch made the list, but more notable that didn’t make the list was the tragic death of Jim O’Brien. A large majority of homes tuned into Action News that night.
