Charleston WV has ocean front property for sale.

That moron on NBCs "Today Show.... no let's start over: That "real estate expert" on NBC's Today show has once again claimed that Charleston WV was one of the top 5 places in the nation for good recovery and increasing property values. The woman has never been here, and yet seems to think this is one of the hottest spots in the nation for things like "culture". I've watched her reports over the last 2 years and there's no doubt in my mind that she has always confused Charleston WV with Charleston S.C. On yesterdays show for instance, they rolled video of Charleston WV as she talked. Below are some screen shots of that video:

Here is a link to the video: http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/3041440/n ... _and_money 5 housing markets ripe for recovery Real estate expert Barbara Corcoran takes a look at five American cities showing signs of growth.

The last thing we in Charleston need is some fortune teller announcing to the world that we're a hot property item based on false information and numbers. My taxes are high enough already.

I guess I'll have to apologize to Danny Jones. Looks like he WAS right.

Can anyone circle the spot where the PBS guy got cut up? We need to make sure to let the newcomers know what part of town to avoid.
