Solar Eclipse Watch Party FAIL

Post by sinklair » Wed Apr 10, 2024 7:47 am

WLNS promoted eclipse watch parties in Jackson and Lansing. However they angered many people by promising and not purchasing enough glasses. Viewers were upset when they went to the parks to be told there were no more free glasses.

Yet, the station posted pictures of them handing out glasses to its staff to watch the eclipse in its backyard. Not a good look.

you buy 5,000 pairs, (or whatever) and then you limit attendance to roughly that.

5000 would be a great start. In Jackson, they brought 40
