Stop Doing This...
TV talent should never use their station-branded social media to bitch and whine about companies, businesses, or services.
Here’s WFAA (Dallas) Reporter Rebecca Lopez whining to American Airlines that her flight was delayed.
Do you think that airlines want to delay flights? I can assure you, this is a bigger pain for them, than it is for you.
Also, I’m guessing that American Airlines buys ad time on WFAA and across Tegna-owned stations. Maybe they should pull the ads and we’ll see how your boss feels about your post.
Also, you might have to pay for two hotel rooms for your vacation. Some viewers that watch you are trying to put food on the table. Show some awareness.
Also, a Reporter should know how travel insurance, and how it helps in a situation like this.
