Evidently Terrie Foster is taking over the weekend anchor duties at WLOS for the freshly departed Russ Bowen, who has moved over the 10 p.m. on My40. Foster did a good job, but I miss Russ.
There wasn’t much going on. WLOSers picked up on a newspaper story that said the Rev. Amy Cantrell and another woman using a house on South French Broad Avenue as a church had been cited by the city. The city says the area’s not zoned for use as a church, and they’re violating codes. The church takes in drug addicts and the homeless and tries to help them get back on their feet. WLOSer Kassandra Pride did the story.
In other news, Black Mountain aldermen will talk about the proper screening of Dumpsters. And police arrested a guy and charged him with drug possession and resisting arrest. The rest of the top news was about a fire in Salisbury and the death of Eve Carson in Chapel Hill.
After the weather, there was yet another story about how gas prices suck (they could deter tourism). And WLOSers hit the streets to ask people if they remembered to set their clocks one hour ahead for Daylight Saving Time.
A little later there was an ad posing as a news story about some new kind of player piano. That was about it.
