If you live in the Sacramento Area and have Satellite and are looking forward to watching it on ABC you're screwed unless, you like women's basketball. Here is some of the article.
Come Saturday, when Team USA plays for its survival against Italy in the World Cup, local fans shouldn't bother turning to News10 to watch that game at noon.
It won't be there.
Instead, we'll all be treated to a Monarchs home game courtesy of a hopelessly flawed decision by News10 executives who somehow think it's OK to show USA-Italy on tape at 3 p.m.
"This was the best way to serve everybody," said Margaret Mohr, News10's vice president of marketing. "Ratings are not what's important. Serving our local community is, and the Monarchs are local."
