FOX News drops an f-bomb
Follow @mediaukdiscuss
I’m with Andy on this one, this really looks nothing like the main Fox News channel.
Well a few seconds googling brings up this http://www.khq.com/category/247297/lindsay-nadrich
Yep this is a local reporter, not a network reporter.
That’s one of the problems with FOX. Even their local news is branded FOX News, usually with a channel number in the middle, so you get FOX 8 News, or FOX 25 News.
However, this is further complicated by the fact that this is an NBC produced news programme. KHQ is the NBC affiliate in Spokane, which produces news for FOX 28, KAYU. So, it’s not even a FOX reporter, but an NBC one.
So, strictly, that was a FOX News reporter – at least, one reporting for a programme called FOX News. But, golly, that’s confusing.
Strictly, it was an NBC reporter, on an NBC-produced programme for the local FOX affiliate.
There are a number of these shared arrangements in the small and medium sized markets in the US. It’s just cheaper for one affiliate to buy in a news programme from another local operation in the same market, as long as the programme times don’t clash. And since FOX usually airs their local news at 10pm, and ABC, CBS and NBC air theirs at 11pm, some FOX affiliates buy in.
Sometimes, even an extra local breakfast show will be bought in from 7am to 9am, whilst ABC, CBS and NBC are showing their network breakfast shows
Person says f-word on TV… clap them in irons. Oh, the humanity!

Are you sure this is the actual channel, Fox News? It looks more like the local news on a Fox affiliate somewhere to me.
