Our local NBC affiliate, KTAL Channel 6, has released a promo reel of anchor Dan Jovic asking viewers to put their differences and politics aside for seventeen days, long enough to cheer Team USA to victory at the Olympic Games in Rio, Brazil.

It's a simple message, yet poignant considering what not only our state and our entire nation is currently going through. Thank you KTAL for a message of love and caring!  Indeed, #GeauxTeamUSA!

KTAL's Jacque Jovic is currently in Rio helping to cover the games! We can only hope she's on hand when Shreveport native Kendrick Farris wins gold in the weightlifting competition.
