Lol. CBS isnt signing anyone to a “massive” contract. All cheap hires. Anchors doing.. OK.
She reached a dead end at 4, and was likely looking for a weekday gig. If its mornings, pays in the 150-200 range.

The departures are because the others got passed over for the chief job, and saw a dead end. Nothing to do with Ben Bailey, who is an absolute idiot. That job pays 400-500K. Who gives that up over getting a fucking shot.

Did you read the article??? She said she would be back on TV here. She is likely going to 62.

This is a trainwreck.. I get it. Its the first run and everyone is nervous. But they had months to rehearse. This should have been Emmy winning. The newscast is riddled with technical mistakes, black holes, the pacing is slow. The desk camera shot feels off center. Am I wrong? Something doesnt feel ...

Jim.. ignore these folks and move on.

Yes.. this is a forum where people can bitch all they want and criticize. And thats ok. Its not rooted in any authority.

And Yes.. those posting here don’t have half the talent of those actually on the air, who are hired for a multitude of reasons.

People still post in the tired Ron Cameron thread. I am not one of them. 793 fucking pages. In all my years here, I've never seen any thread with that many posts. Where the hell does he broadcast at? WDTK The bizarre nature of the show keeps the thread going. Recently, his time slots have been boun...

They are paying a lot, so not sure what this means.

How do you know?

He wont get hired in radio, unless its some shock jock garbage show. No one in the market is gonna touch him. He has a reputation as a toxic employee.

I dont know what you are all expecting. They are launching a streaming first newscast with a bunch of MMJ’s doing community based reports. CBS is investing in some staff and a set, but it aint gonna knock anyone’s socks off. This isn’t gonna be of the caliber of Local4. They aren’t doing the same th...

Wow.. well this is a racist thread.

Who gives a shit?

Likely. Pay sucks. 80K for OMB reporters. That doesnt attract stars. And Detroit is still a hard sell.

Roberta was given the opportunity to say goodbye. She choose not to.

No one else is gone. Just issues with the app according to a source. Greg B is part time and fills in when folks are out sick.

Roberta was nearing retirement, was well paid and likely given a fair severance. She will be fine.
