Re: Some drama at Loco 4

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. Didn’t his departure create the vacuum? Some of this stuff, like Gross retirin...

Re: Some drama at Loco 4

It’s kind of funny that the top weather guy at the station quit (supposedly over taking the vax to come back to the studio) and it’s been a weird cascade of personnel changes ever since.

Re: Brandon Roux

The other day Brandon was trying to remember who sang some song and he said something like “WHERE is Jason when you need him?” It made me laugh. He’s corny but I like him. I think Ashlee is leagues better than Kim. I liked her when she was here before, but she was really good on the snow reports. He...

Why the hell did we go from 1 country station to 4? How can Detroit sustain them all? I don't get these moves.
It could be a desperation move. Stores stock country discs because that demo still buys them. Maybe they also are one of the last strongholds of FM radio.

Re: Jessica Starr RIP

I wonder if local media will look into these complications at all. She said she had blurred vision, dry eyes, and light sensitivity. She said she was struggling and she had tried to return to work but needed more time. Her doc said it’d take up to three months to recover and she was past that. She m...

Re: Jessica Starr RIP

Y M Ionhere, stopnswop2, there are people who can help you. Sometimes the people closest to someone are not equipped to understand or get it, or they might not want to think you’re in pain so they minimize it. But there are people who care and there are also people who can help. I hope if either of ...

Perhaps apropos: https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-wor ... led-lasik/
Wow, that article describes some of what she’d been apparently dealing with. How awful.

Re: Jessica Starr RIP

I was totally surprised by this. I always liked her, she seemed genuinely nice and down-to-earth, which I think in morning TV parlance would be “relatable.” I don’t get to watch morning news that much, so I didn’t know she was struggling with recovery from lasik. How awful for her children, family, ...

Re: Dan Leach

To answer your question - yes, he is definitely the worst....EVER. Have you heard the guy who has a weekend sports show on 1400? Last weekend he read an ad for his own restaurant and talked about how awful business was. Then he had Jerry Green on. Jerry might be a hall of fame writer but he sounds ...

Re: Then, there's this.....

CBS Radio had an update after Prince died saying his heirs stood to inherit "a small fortune." It made me wonder what constitutes a large fortune.

Re: Rob Parker Confronts Jeff Moss

Rob Parker is an awful broadcaster. Anderson may be a sports dummy (I haven't listened to his show much). But even if it were Pat Caputo, my least favorite person on radio, I wouldn't ever want him bothered in a restaurant and followed to his car. At least Anderson was at a station event where I gue...

Re: Rob Parker Confronts Jeff Moss

I'll never understand why people give this guy attention. He is thin skinned, whiny and seems jealous of people who have careers covering sports. Maybe he actually covers sports on his blog, but it seems whenever he pops up he is just calling people names or trying to get attention by annoying peopl...

Re: Then, there's this.....

Channel 4 just had a very low moment. They did a report about a woman who spent 26.000$ on plastic surgery in order to get a size 50 rear. If you like that stuff fine but it's not exactly newsworthy. That was easily the worst story I've seen on TV in a long time. I liked the melodramatic music they...
