KETV Apologizes For Tweet Of ‘Lost’ Poster
ABC affiliate KETV issued an apology on Thursday for a tweet that compared the missing Malaysia Airlines flight to Lost. The station posted a reenactment of the iconic promotional image for the long-running series, but changed the title to “Flight 370” to represent the Boeing 777 that disappeared on March 8 with 239 passengers and crew aboard.
Results from the company’s first Factfinder report finds that regular viewers of Lost and 24 were more likely than the average viewing households to watch ABC and Fox programming; proving, it says, that despite a multitude of consumer viewing options, there is still viewer loyalty to networks.
