This incendiary reporting of a non-news story was not limited to only KBCI. The same arrest took on an entirely different scope and scale from the NBC affiliate, KTBV Channel 7. Channel 7’s exploited the incident with inflammatory coverage that started with Olin then launched into unrelated issues seemingly aimed at promoting misinformation and loathing of gay men.

KTVB-Channel 7 (Boise NBC affiliate) let its conservative roots show tonight in the coverage given to the teen pregnancy controversy hovering around Republican vice presidential candidate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. The 6 pm broadcast featured a story by reporter Ysabel Bilbao who teased earlier that she spoke to people “on both sides of the isle,” indicating she had a balanced story. Well, guess what? It was clearly tilted to the right and not centered or balanced.

Today it was one baby step for Twin Falls queers, but one giant leap for Idaho LGBT citizens! It took the bravery and absolute persistence of the Southern Idaho Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Community Center in Twin Falls to call checkmate on a couple of obstinate local organizers to gain entry into the annual [...]

KTVB Channel-7 lived up to its solid reputation as the “family values” news source this weekend during its live coverage of the Western Days Parade in Twin Falls, Idaho. With weatherman Larry Gebert doing a live on-location remote and Ysabel Bilbao anchoring from Boise, viewers got the impression that it was just another great day [...]

Let there be no doubt that KTBV Channel 7 in Boise knows how to get a grip on “hard news.” I stood speechless in front of my television this evening when the Diva of the Dial, Dee Sarton, looked out from that tube to deliver the “top” story with all the professional savvy of a [...]
