Any other time that the WVIFF has had directors in to present their films at 
any of their semi-annual festivals, they’ve always been local/regional – this 
includes Morgan Spurlock, who’s from down the road in Beckley. Also, Charleston 
plays host to NPR’s “Mountain Stage” most weeks, so the opportunity is always 
there for a musician’s post-show appearance at a Boulevard bar.
 
Like I said before, it was just the bizarre confluence of events that led him 
there.

To bring it back to TV:
Once local media arrived for his post-film remarks Saturday, he called out the 
cameraman from Sinclair’s co-owned local stations (ABC-Fox), likening their 
ownership to Soviet-era media: “[with accent] Charleston, you only get two TV 
stations. CBS 13, you go to Summersville.” Guess which station didn’t mention 
his visit on the late news? (He probably didn’t notice Gray’s NBC-CW-My 
triopoly coming through town.)
