Manners made for print

KOCE-TV's news partnership with the local newspaper, the Orange County Register, has hit a snag in the form of a crude saboteur.

Observed, has been regularly disrupting the public TV station's broadcasts from the Register newsroom with a variety of obnoxious antics, including picking his nose on camera, according to a memo by Michael Taylor, KOCE-TV news director.
