Jacobson seems to have the same problem with ratios as a lot of people. The federal budget was about a trillion dollars then. Assuming WBBM had a budget of $30 million, the canopy's cost would be equivalent to WBBM wasting about ten bucks. I guess Jacobson never got around to ranting about how the station wasted money on donuts or too many office supplies.
Love that commentary from Walter Jacobson, we need more Walter Jacobson's on the news. Stations won't touch commentaries today, to afraid to upset advertisers I guess....
