A lot of people were angry that KSDK covered tornado watches Saturday afternoon, instead of airing the Belmont Stakes pre-show. Note that each of these tweets was sent at least 30 minutes before the Belmont Stakes race started — the race aired without interruption. Here’s a sample of what they had to say. Warning: There’s a lot adult language.

#ksdk st louis gets tornadoes every week. A triple crown race never. Stop the weather madness! — SaveWhales (@SaveWhalesNow) June 7, 2014

@ksdknews no one cares about your thirst for airtime. No one watches during your normal hours, hence why you intrude on the Belmont. #Losers — St. Louis Blues 2015 (@etarlas22) June 7, 2014
