JS>News departments of local TV stations are extremely competitive, and will
JS>stop at nothing to either be first with the news, or barring that, stop
JS>the other guy if possible. An exemple as follows... Last summer there was
JS>a shooting 2 doors down the street from me. The first news to arrive on
JS>the scene parked their truck on my front lawn (The street being too
JS>narrow for parking). The second news co. to arrive was forced to park
JS>further away from the shooting scene. Both trucks had their satellite
JS>dishes sticking way up in the air. The news co. that was parked further
JS>away was forced to leave when their camera cable proved to be too short.
        And then the cops arrived? ;)
