No offense to Jerry and his kids, but KMTV needs to dump the telethon. I feel sorry for the muscular dystrophy association having to be on a station nobody watches. It was pathethic this morning seeing nobody calling in.

I feel sorry for you "Tennis Fan" for having the courage to post on here and make yourself look like a complete idiot. Are you qualified to make an accurate opinion on who watches what? NO! How dare you insult the Muscular Dystrophy Association! If you had any decency or respect, you would have kept your comment to yourself. Funny, how you mentioned nobody was watching the telethon, you obviously were. Don't incur the wrath of those who defend the news media!

I was only watching because I wanted to see tennis.
