I hope Sinclair Media Corp., that owns KVAL/FOX/GRIT, reads this letter. KVAL was THE TV station I grew up with. Was on Capt. Shipwreck more than once and News anchor John Doyle was a bit like Walter Cronkite. Wink Guthrie delivered the weather. Commentary by Russell Sadler was informative and at times I disagreed. It was a bit like the KUGN trio - homegrown stuff. Now it's glitz, glamour, and "if it bleeds, it leads". They read the news like robotic "talking heads". No muss, no fuss, just the police/fire blotter, birthdays, NOAA weather, and "if you see news happening, contact us" for we're too busy distracting you from a grinding reality. From Chuck Norris to a bloated Steven Segal, GRIT serves up violence 24/7. How many violent deaths are there on TV in a year?  TV, where money is king, violence talks and morality walks.
