So, @lastweektonight.com, it turns out this guy actually does do Santa Claus gigs in town. He also plays the mandolin in a Celtic band and hasn’t shaved his beard since the spring of 1980. More importantly, KRZA brought in $2k in donations since your show: coloradomedia.substack.com/p/colorado-i...

Since it's still up hours later, I'm screen grabbing it here. Is no one paying attention to what's going up on the news site?

The sloppy attribution throughout this item is something I notice in emerging journalists who aren't used to news writing. I typically point to it and say "Where have you seen this in actual news writing before?" Now ... here it is. Very discouraging.

Another shot where KKTV showed the sign listing multiple news organizations and a college journalism program. Again, I’m not aware of any fire here (I was in the office 45 minutes ago) and CPR says the same.

To my knowledge and that of Colorado Public Radio, which owns the building that also houses my office at the Colorado College Journalism Institute, there was no fire here. I’ve reached out to KKTV about this.
