Re: Worst gimmicks ever used
The Surprise Squad where they spent quite some time finding the most homely people, so they could give them gift certificates. School Spirit where it's so loud that Marc Jacobson as he talks is spitting in some kids face. Anything Better-related. Road Warriors. Fielder's Choice. "Coverage you can co...

Re: Fred Heumann out
He could also pop up in Flint for the ousted Ryan Slocum.

Re: Battle of the Christmas concerts
WNEM doesn't have anything in their budget for a Christmas concert or Mike Terry's Christmas Lights special. There will be a Holiday Log special though.

Re: Fall 19 Syndication
WNEM has given up on 5 Plus. It's going to be mainly Corner Stone Infomercials and their hour news.

Re: Another TV5 departure
She was given the worst schedule out of everyone. Even when they tried to make her look bad, she was the consummate professional. There will be a new CMU graduate replacing her shortly.

Re: Sarah Simnitch let go
Scot Johnson. Maybe God knows that TV5 is a sinking ship and is sending us a message that the time to get out is now. Sarah, Collette, assist. News director Phil Hendricks... all departed after the arrival of Julie-Karin. They're pushing out people not because they were bad employees... they just we...

Re: March Madness
Meredith is toying with the idea of a 2 minute national sports report segment. There's a reason that Scot Johnson is missing in the new promos. Sports is getting cut from 2 full-time positions to 1 full-time and a part-time. Meredith is also reducing sales positions. All of those paid infomercials a...

Re: Sherrod
She's moved to weekends because no one else wants to do them after Craig's departure. One thing to keep an eye on is the mornings. When Ashlyn and Sara are anchoring together, look for the tension. You'll see both of them pining for airtime by standing by Chris during the weather opening. On a recen...

Re: Boyd Leaving
Morale is very low. Custer berating producers doesn't help either. One of the reasons that Colette left was that she was denied the night off for a school function involving her child. After seeing Custer got his way and got the night off for Cher, she realized how unappreciated she was. Lots of unh...

WNEM's Newest Low
We know that no one's watching the newscast, but this was probably not a good idea from Coty Kuschinsky.

Re: Yule Log vs. News
Mike Terry shortchanged himself for the future. That same Yule Log special could run forever as there was just generic music and no time-dated material.

Re: TV5 Better Holiday Deals
Meg is doing whatever she can to keep a job. After dropping the 7:00 newscasts, she is not in demand as she once was. In January, look for her to go to weekends before fading into oblivion.
