Lately, in Las Vegas, there have been several car-pedestrian in which many people have been killed or injured. Because of this, Channel 13 has started a promotion in which they claim that they are trying to educate people about the problem.
However, it seems like Channel 13 is almost praying everyday to have a car-ped accident so they can promote themselves and their cause. And when it happens, they promote themselves to no end and it is rather scary. If there is a car-ped accident, it leads their newscast, no matter what else is going on in town. Hell, Las Vegas could be overrun by a horde of lesbian ax murdering homeless Playmates from Playboy who take over City Hall and the Bellagio with machine guns and pea shooters but if there was a car-ped accident, Channel 13 would cover the accident and push the Playmate story to 3or 4th story of the day, after the accident story, how they are trying to educate people and how you can sign up to pledge you look both ways when crossing the street- all with Channel 13 logos.
Right now, the top of their web page is their promotion and their lead story is a car-ped accident on Las Vegas Blvd and Tonopah this afternoon. http://www.ktnv.com/
It's one thing to promote a good cause, but when it turns to self promotion, like Channel 13, it's creepy, gross and unethical.
