1. 5/5Family of Five loose their house to fire

   Ms Lisa Davis lived on Foam Street she was living on Foam Street off Cannery Row. Ms Davis works 3 jobs until Covid. She has been a server for many years. She has 3 children and takes care of 2 nieces. She is an Angel. She is now left with nothing. No place to live and shelter 5 children. No food. And now school starts and they must do online school Their computers and phones were burned and are gone. They have no clothes. Luckily people have found out about the fire and trying to help. She will need to find someone in our beautiful community that can help find her a house and job. I am hoping KSBW can do something to help this family.

2. 3/5Both Stations-waste of air time

   Both review same news - Eeek & both ONLY on rare occassions cover Carmel &Monterey Eeek,eek. /Dan G is good. Other female reporters are pleasant. Both my Sis & I say>Erin is boring, needs a new bra w/up lift AND reports 1/3 news on Salinas yet can’t pronounce Spanish names & places after all these years!!! / Better if —one station KSBW, e.g. report on N. counties e.g. Holister, S. Benito., S.Cruz, Salinas & Salinas Valley; & other Station can cover Pacific Grove,Carmel, Pebble Beach, Monterey,Carmel Valley, Chular & So. Hwy1, also Moss Landing, Marina,& Seaside BUT probably not fun because less crime. “Weather Reporters” are good especially the black gentleman reporting on weather (regret to say - I can’t recall his name, sorry.) That’s all for now - just off the top of my head. All these points have been discussed in our homes for years. Also, will never forget the 49ers won a season and were given their celebration parade - Erin was suppose to be covering this “huge celebratory even - Weird She was on camera rambling on about some other subject for a good whole 5 minutes. “What” - “grief” she was not tracking! Eeek! We in the family - all of us - were commenting... “Where is her head?” Obviously, we never got over that. “Thank you for asking our opinion.” Good luck. Why are these two stations over-lapping news programs.

3. 5/5Ratings

   KSBW is by far the BEST station anywhere. I will not watch any other station. It seems like one big family & I enjoy everyone's humor. It makes it more personal. Keep up the good work. What I don’t like is the commercials that we are forced to sit through before we are allowed to see the news article. Are they there to pay for the broadcast itself? It would be nice to find another avenue. Other than that, stay the same wonderful station I have watched for many years & don’t let anyone else retire...

4. 5/5This is our nightly Station - KSBW

   We love all the news teams, their professionalism, and their friendly, homey approach to talking to us. Dan, Erin, all of them are enjoyable to watch, and they become serious when it calls for it. I thought when Jim retired, the weather reports would never be the same. But no, you assembled a first class meteorologist crew with all the weather folks, weekdays, and weekends. Thanks for many great years (we used to watch Roy Stearns), and many more to come.

5. 2/5Good TV Station Bad App

   This TV station deserves a better performing app. Ads that freeze and prevent access to content. Terrible search function. There must be some organization to the layout but I’ve not figured out what it is. When I see something on TV and want to follow it up here I often can’t find it, especially if it is a secondary story or something that was just briefly mentioned. I keep the app because the news coverage is only one of two local options so I keep the, both. I get so frustrated using this one though, I often consider deleting it. BTW I’m not someone who generally has trouble with apps, I get good results most of the time. This is an app problem, not a reflection of my ability.
