Sometimes they still play the wrong actualities too-- I feel bad for the 
news anchor whenever this happens.  He or she is left to ad-lib or cover it 
up... But did you read the article in the Sunday paper about all the 
dot.coms no longer doing as much radio advertising?  I now hear recorded 
PSA's (yes friends, really, there still are PSA's!!!) from some groups like 
the Salvation Army...
