Re: Weather reporting

A large portion of the U.P. and even some areas near Thunder Bay, ON have zero snow on the ground right now. Warmest official temp in Michigan right now is at Houghton of all places, where it is sunny and 51 degrees. I am worried that the forest fire season this year is going to be every bit as bad...

Re: ATSC 3.0

I'm not seeing it. The bandwidth they're giving everyone on the Lighthouse transmitter is what, 2.5-3 megabits? It looks almost as bad as the old ATSC signal, which looks pretty bad considering all the sub-channels and the channel 20 stations they all must carry. One thing I will tell you that you s...

Re: Family Life Radio Billboards

There's a few along 94 on the east side. Today, I happened to catch a digital billboard advertising Family Life Radio 93.1. This was on Westbound Hall Road just before Van Dyke in Utica. Has anyone else seen other billboards for Family Life Radio in the Detroit area? Doensn't that seem to concentra...

Re: WDIV's Hank Winchester mentioned in case heard on Judge Judy today

I cant stand that Hankthhhh Winthhhchestthhhherthhhhh. He's the reason Ch4 WDIV is no longer on in my household. He reminds me of a big annoying teenage girl. User name checks out. I always laughed when the “Helpth Methhh Hankthhh” promo would air that would show him standing outside someone’s door...

Re: Attention Weather Forecasters

You know who you are, the ones who think the viewers blame you for the weather. Please stop that, it is dumb, even if done in a playful teasing sort of sense. Forecasters get teased about the weather every day, from everyone they know to strangers that recognizes them. Common way for friends, famil...

Re: GUYS! GUYS! GUESS WHAT I HEARD!

I normally don't listen to pop music, but was on some Sirius/XM channel on a long drive and listened-in for a bit. I noticed that every ballad is a breathy mumble over a single piano. Even the male singers are doing it except for one guy with a set of incredible pipes, but still over a piano. Just a...

Re: Detroit News fires Charlie LeDuff over c-word insult

I want to hear more from the people here who demand that journalists keep their opinions out of the news. So here is the difference: In a straight up news report opinions should be left on the shelf. Just give us the facts please without your bias: Left or Right If its a weekly/daily column then th...

Re: Donna Smilovitz, Bernie's wife, has passed away

He's a columnist, not a reporter. His personal voice being inserted into the article is exactly the difference between the two. The dude is a gigantic a-hole. When I worked in TV, every interaction with him was painful because not only is there is never enough oxygen in the room for him and his ego...
