Breaking news today from the Metro Pulse. There is now a new Knox County Commissioner. His name is Mike Hamilton. Congratulations to the newly elected Commissioner. He is the new chair of the cable television committee.

All kidding aside, how difficult is it to get the simple things right? Is Theresa Smith from WATE working for the Metro Pulse now?

The name is Mike Hammond.

But Is It on Cable?
Knox County Commissioner Mike Hamilton, the new chair of the cable television committee, has called a meeting with interested parties for Wednesday (Jan. 17) at 8:30 a.m. at the City County Building.

Cable companies in Knox County have been operating on a month-to-month basis without long term contracts. Hamilton drew the assignment to chair the committee after the November election. Cable operators have argued a major bill may pass this legislative session affecting the regulation and operation of cable systems and have stalled contract talks.

At least at MP, they'll ask your drink of choice. ;-)

Fulmer is a constitutional

Fulmer is a constitutional officer. Only Chancellor Weaver can fire him.
