From the Laptop

Less Than Helpful Cross Promotion: KKCD (105.9 FM) morning host Steve King stumbled to correctly pronounce the name of fellow Journal Broadcast Group colleague and KMTV (Cox Channel 5) news anchor Carlo Cecchetto. King was promoting an in-studio visit Wednesday with Cecchetto, who will broadcast a "sweeps" report on how teens drive when they are behind the wheel.
