I recently came across this article:

I wonder if other areas have as many reporters up on charges as South Florida does.

I was amused at the writer's contempt for Channel 7 News (WSVN, Fort Lauderdale). It's regarded as the most cynical station, with a well-earned reputation for cheap sensationalism.
Most of South Florida share's the article writer's contempt for the reporters of Channel 7. Probably the one of them everyone here has heard of was Rick Sanchez, who had a show on CNN for a while before he was fired for an anti-Semitic remark.
Unfortunately, Channel 7 wasn't the end of Rick Sanchez, and he went on to CNN.

Back during the period after Hurricane Andrew hit Miami in August 1991, there was a fundraising concert where several local broadcast anchors, including a number of local weathermen, walked on stage and were cheered. Rick Sanchez during the event walked on stage and was booed offstage!
