This is a program guide, not useful news. I don't think anyone outside of St. Louis is going to care.

I post for the people who are interested who may not know that the event is going on and want to see what's going on. Some people like to follow their favorite stars, no matter where they are, to stay up on what's happening with them. I don't work for local news stations and with that being said, they hardly care what happens here. I do. Alot of other people do. That's who I do it for. To me, it's no different than the bigger cons where people who don't live near them or can attend them still want to know what's happening there. I love doing this for the ones who care and I have big news coming, another reason why I do this.

Plus, if it's not "news" then hardly anyone sees it, which defeats the purpose. I think.
