WTTG – Fox 5 News

Hello Readers I wrote this statement after Reading a comment in a thread for Unilocal.Discussion on Julie Wright and her not working with Fox 5 News. Problem is it was closed for comments when I tried to post. Since spending so much time to respond. I did not want to waste it. so I posted it here. I hope others will reply. Do You Miss Julie Wright from Fox 5 News?
First of all… Why so much «hate» for anyone? Let alone Julie Wright? I have been a fan of Fox 5 for over 6 years. Julie Wright makes the whole broadcast SHINE!!! Without her now its Dull and I don’t even care to watch. Unless I missed the segment, I don’t even recall them giving her a going away announcement? I mean all those years she worked for Fox 5 you would think it wouldn’t be so many people asking «Where is Julie» !!! There are many viewers who like myself… just don’t know what happened. I’d been missing seeing her on Fox 5 News a few months and thinking she must have been on vacation until I just happened to be turning channels two weeks ago and saw her on channel 7 News!
Again, not sure when or why she left. Fox 5 News should have given the fans of hers an explanation (if they did not): (
I just love, love, love her! She has a very bubbly laugh and personality… For someone to say they don’t like her or worst… that they hate her is ridiculous. I mean how could you? How could you hate someone you don’t even know?
They have GOT TO BE EVIL PEOPLE! These are the type of people that loves to be trouble makers and keeping up kaus! These are the type of people that you don’t Want for Co-​workers and surely not for a boss! They will make your life miserable… because they are «usually» miserable themselves. Just right hateful and mean spirited and no sense of respect and love for their fellow man/​woman, but what can you exspect… as they probably don’t even love themselves either! It is a shame to read someone in the thread write that she had googled «I hate Julie Wright «That is so COLD HEARTED and shows the person’s True Character! No one in their good and right mind; or with a good heart would want to even waste time to do such a thing!!! She must be very ENVIOUS OF JULIE WRIGHT to do so.
Whatever ever happen. I hope Julie is all good, that she is happy and well. May God Bless (You Julie) and Protect her from All Evil, Wrong Doer’s and Especially All The Haters! Amen!

This is really a bad news internship program. It is a structured, but UNSTRUCTURED internship program. Interns are not allow to touch equipment, edit video and content, or get in the news truck with reporters and photojournalists. This is due to union rules. It is very difficult for interns to shadow a reporter due to union rules. Some of the reporters do not want interns around. All interns do is the following: write broadcast readers from the AP wires or take calls or read a pamphlet. If the news assignment and other departments in the newsroom, does not have anything for you, you then at a lost. I will told by the internship coordinator (Micheline Bowman) that I will never be an on-​air reporter. This is actually discouraging. This lady just sits at her desk typing, making phone calls and errands. She does not care about you and is not a mentor. The same applies to HR and other departments.
This internship may help you get another internship, but it is not a very good one. I strongly advise college students to please intern at small television news station, a non-​Union television news station, or at a local public access channel. You will learn more from them than from WTTG or any other union station.
I 100% sincerely regret interning at WTTG and wish that I interned at a non-​union station and preferably a small television news station.

I love this news station!!! I watch it every morning, every evening and every night 7 days a week! My favorite news reporters are Wisdom Martin, Sarah Simmons, Allison Seymour, Tony Perkins, Shawn Yancy and Tucker Barnes.
This is the best news in the Metro DC area!!!

I think the ppl below are talking about Fox in general. Local Fox 5 based in DC is Fabulous! They are NOT biased and I love the relationship between the anchors etc. They offer the best news in the area!

For all of the haters:
You guys do know that this page says LOCAL Fox news (WTTG) not the FOX news channel on cable.
I watch these guys every morning and they are awesome! I love the interviews and their follow-​up questions. They only have a few minutes so they don’t get to up in people’s faces but they also don’t try to make nice on every topic.
Allison, Steve, Tony, Tucker, Holly, and everyone else on that show keep me entertained, amused, and informed.
I love those guys!

Sorry, Mike. You be wrong. Fox is indeed extremely right-​wing and biased. What’s worse is they claim to be the ONLY station that ISN’T biased. A joke, certainly. I mean come on, one half hour of listening to these pundits speak will open your eyes. And if you still dont agree, you’re likely beyond any help. The job of press is to report events accurately and without prejudice. Fox isn’t in the market for either it seems. And how come all their stories are about people getting shot or dying in a house fire somewhere? I KNOW there is some kind of good shit happening around the globe! Simply depressing and cold is how they come off, despite making the attempt to appear more like my friend.

I wish i could go lower than 1. Sorry, fox sucks

The press is the watchdog for the American government.
Right now, only one dog is barking: Fox News.
And that’s bad, folks. Maybe a lot of people hate Fox for daring to challenge The One or for trying to create a debate where ABC simply rolls over but that’s the JOB of the press! And when the rest of the press believes firmly in the «one party system», FOX News is your last hope.
If it doesn’t worry you that FOX is the only watchdog still awake, it should.
It’s fine to disagree with their views, but it’s important to listen to them, just as it’s important for FOX viewers to get some information from the left. Every story has two sides and if you aren’t getting both sides, you’re just letting yourself be manipulated.
So kudos to FOX. Keep barkin’. Someone needs to do it and the rest of the press is becoming a mouthpiece for the government.

I agree with Leila and Nick! They manipulate and lie so often it’s hard for them to differentiate between fact and fiction!

Rupert Murdoch’s personal agenda controls (a) the «news» Fox shows and (b) the imbalance of STRONG right-​wingers debating weak lefties. The American public is being misled by nut-​job gazillionaire Murdoch and his cronyism with the deranged Bush administration.
This is the best example of bias that I’ve ever seen. Watch the documentary «Outfoxed» for facts to back it up.
Oh, and Bill O’Reilly is such a bigoted hater!

I hate Will Thomas. I don’t like his face, his smile, his reporting – I like nothing about him.
Why? I wish I could tell you; I just have a deep, irrational distaste for him.
Never met him, he never did anything to me other than cause anger to well up every time I see him.
On the plus side thy do air a lot of old episodes of the Simpsons.

My feelings towards this incredibly biased, right-​wing tilted, purely profit-​driven news brainwashing station can be easily summed up with the following…
