WFAA8 investigator Shipp again shapes the news

Another high school athletic program is in the cross-hairs of veteran WFAA8 gumshoe Brett Shipp, who painted a convincing picture of wrongdoing with Tuesday night's lengthy look at a star Southlake Carroll High School quarterback whose eligibility seemingly is in serious question. We analyze his latest expose here while our Back Channels page rewinds to March 14, 1994 for a look at Shipp as a hotshot investigator for KDFW-TV (Channel 4). He'd been passed over by WFAA8, but his father, Bert, then the station's longtime assignments editor, made sure that wouldn't last much longer.

Also, the latest D-FW Nielsen ratings are in, and we have a fifth episode of our pre-season TV THEME SONG-ville feature.
