The Video Wire anchor Dawson Meadows reports that Sebastian County River Rats is a leading contender for a new mascot idea at Southside High School in Fort Smith. As usual, Meadows has bad information.

In another questionable report from Meadows, he said the Fort Smith Board of Directors may try to resolve a pension funding problem by “legalizing the pot.”

The Video Wire is a collaboration between The City Wire and Things To Do In Fort Smith.
