Texts From Your Friends at the Station
/KOTV (Tulsa) has now decided to send out station push alerts disguised as text messages from the station's on air talent as if they were the viewer’s personal friend.
The push alerts are now signed by the talent that supposedly sent out the messages.
This has the fingerprints of a consultant somewhere thinking that the viewers will really believe that the Anchors and Reporters are personally sending the messages to the viewers.
I don't know about you, but I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to see LeAnne Taylor's vacation pictures.
Maybe when it's sweeps, the talent can sext viewers to drive up the ratings.
Just a thought.
