Kansas City station suggests dead body more interesting than Royals
A Kansas City news station apologized Tuesday night after it suggested in a message posted to Twitter that a dead body may be more entertaining than the Royals getting blown out in Game 1 of the World Series.
“Need a break from the game? Watch our 10 p.m. news on the latest on a body found in the Little Blue River & more,” KCTV5 tweeted.
The station quickly deleted the tweet and apologized.
“We worded that previous tweet horribly and we are very sorry. It has been deleted,” the station tweeted.
The Royals were throttled in Game 1 by the San Francisco Giants, 7-1.
