It is a horrible event, innocent people killed a community hurting, however like everything else the media in Detroit is running it into the ground. And they're supposed to say "That's it, now, who's on the new season of Dancing With The Stars?" Of course they're talking about this. There is still ...

Why does a 15 year old need a handgun? Did he steal it out of a gun safe or did Dad just give it to him? If Dad gave it to him, charge him as an accomplice Some kids stayed home from school out of fear of something happening. So either they feared it and didn't report it - or they reported it and it...

Don't know the motive but the picture they showed (I am guessing the mug shot), the way his eyes looked and the scratches all over his face, that he killer was probably a meth user and I'm not sure much of a motive is needed if someone is outta their head with that shit.

I'm hearing from very reliable sources that John was in fact a murder victim. Perpetrator is in custody. More details forthcoming.

Motive unknown, circumstances unknown, further details unknown at this time.

Stabbed by his roommate is the story.

What Jack did was stupid and wrong, but I don't think it was mean-spirited and that's the important difference. Thom Brennaman was mean-spirited in what he said. For Jack, it was a poor attempt at humor. He got too comfortable. You know that when you are with your friends, you take shots at each oth...

Ortiz is awful doing regular news. He's a nice guy, and this is pretty stupid to do for a pretty loyal consistent guy.

Give him a little time, for crying out loud.

Because throwing a bunch of well-tested songs on the air does not make a radio station

They are in an extremely tough spot, no doubt, but When the subject comes up will they be leaving the room? This is not a story thats going away by next week, especially the longer U of M drags this out. The school needs to worry about the victims and not a couple of radio hosts. Sweeping this under...

He's been there this week. Taking a Friday off in June is common and probably has nothing to do with this topic.

Well the other Michigan broadcaster, Doug Karsch, is out today too.

That's very interesting.

They both know they can't say a thing about it, so best to take today off, right?

Question on Friday, June 11th. Has John Jansen been out this week? I hear Stoney & Rigor today. If he's been there all week it's a convenient day off after the Matt Schembechler press conference.

ALT 98.7 is just milquetoast. No imagination..........no style.......no flair.......no risks.......... Hey, let's just throw a bunch of well-testing records on the air and we'll get ratings ! That's not how it works 98.7 is the absolute definition of bad radio and why so many music stations suck. Th...

Any way to find out the 25-54 or 18-34 numbers?

Why the fuck does Entercom even want to be in this business? They'll never make enough to cover their debts.

Radio is local. Pure and simple. Always has been, always will be.

They could pretty much fire every local talent and still it won't be enough.

Do Brian Chapman and Dan Leach even fill in anymore? I don't think I've heard them in a long time.

I believe they were both let go recently - they worked for Entercom and that's what Entercom does.

WE CUT PAYROLL !

Did you turn any profit?

NO, BUT WE CUT PAYROLL SO WE WIN, RIGHT?

If you heard how he sounded on Monday you could tell he wasn't doing okay...............But I was hoping it was just the treatment.

This absolutely sucks. One of the nicest guys in the business.
