But we mean that in the best sense. Really.
Last night, Fox40 devoted almost three minutes of its 10 o'clock news to the state election reform proposal that would no longer give all the state's Presidential delegates to the popular vote winner. Instead, if the Republicans would win, say, 20 percent of the districts, it would siphon 20 delegates from the Democrats.
It's a political story with huge implications.
It's also a story that local TV news usually avoids because of the so-called Snooze Factor. Meaning, no good video, no sexy story.
But we have to give a tip of the hat to Fox40 reporter Kye Martin for using a visual aide -- a cheesecake divided into slices -- to jazz up a "process" story. We'll even forgive Kye's trite declaration: "Meaning they can have their cheesecake and eat it, too."
We'd like to see more political reporting on local TV news. So, too, do politicos. Obviously, what's needed is more cheesecake shots.
Here's hoping Martin's boss let her put the cheesecake on her expense account.
