Well, let’s review what WLOSers have had lately: tonight, they actually led with a story about a bomb threat scrawled on a bathroom wall at Brevard High School. Their top three stories Wednesday at 6 were about kids getting out of control at local schools with vandalism or bomb threats or whatever. What is going on?

Sheraldo had a story about “underground Hendersonville.” It was just a vacant space below the sidewalk in a building owned by golf course designer Tom Fazio. Sheraldo said that there were a few shops there back in the day that were cool to hang out in.

Earlier in the week, a woman died in a house fire out in Candler. And a motorcyclist who wrecked his bike by running into the back of a car got it worse when someone ran over him while he was lying in the road, then sped off. The cops are looking for that hit-and-run driver.

That’s been pretty much it.
