Ratings and Reviews
Channel 8 News
I especially like Channel 8 News because their News Men and Women are so friendly and caring about their individual positions there.
And I also like the fact that we can hear about Illinois News and not just about Iowa as Channel 6 does because they’re in Iowa.
Ads, spam, repetitiveness
This isn’t a review of News Channel 8. This is a review of the news channel 8 app. I have had the app since it’s debut on the App Store. App usability is difficult due to the overwhelming amount of ads you have to watch before EVERY single click. You also cannot leave the screen to respond to a text message without returning to yet another ad video. The sheer volume of advertisements you need to swim through as a user comes across as abrasive and tacky. Also, generally it is the same ad. Over and over again at a 30 second clip. Tacky is a really good word for it.
Wish you were in Macomb!
Wish we could get channel 8 in Macomb. Called to get it back but didn’t happen. The 2quincy channels are not good when it comes to weather and news. Have to watch 8 on the app. Much appreciated to be able to connect. The fcc and Comcast evidently don’t agree to televise in Macomb.
