Fisher Communications and KOMO vs. Reality

On Friday, TechFlash’s Todd Bishop published an interview with Fisher Communications’ Troy McGuire and DataSphere’s Gary Cowan. It’s about what you’d expect from a Q&A puff piece; videlicet, it’s a tube steak, not top sirloin.

But there’s meat in the comments, where local bloggers call Fisher out on its theft of local content, and lack of true regard for “community.” It’s worth a read, as are following the links to detailed complaints with Fisher’s behavior.
