This is the CBS O&O in the 3rd Market

WBBM (Chicago) posted this on the station’s Facebook page:

Okay, so that is pretty lame for the CBS O&O in the No. 3 market in the country, but it gets worse.

The station tried to make a joke about oppression.

I’m not sure joking about a country ruled by an unhinged dictator that oppresses and murders its people is exactly what I would call “Friday Funny.”

I have a lot of respect for WBBM GM Jennifer Lyons and she is one of those people that understand news and journalism. So, I’m going to hope that the reason this was posted and still sits on the WBBM Facebook page is that she didn’t see it.

At least, I’m hoping that is the case.
