I saw a bit this morning that they did that had them diving at Oakland U. It was the strangest, cringiest thing I’ve ever seen on the news. I can’t believe someone actually said yes to airing that trash.

Why do they think anyone wants to see this? It’s cringy and flat out embarrassing to all of them and the viewers.

There used to be a director.
I remember his name was Al. Those who were in front of the camera would kibitz back and forth with him. Sometimes he would be in the shot standing off to the side. One time he brought in a great collection of sports memorabilia. Some here may know who I speak of.

Something has happened to Fox2 Mornings since Al retired. I truly think it's fair to say that's when things started turning odd there. More and more, the topics they talked about became less interesting to me. Skits like the Weather Boys became more prevalent. A good chunk of last night's Let-R-Rip started getting shown in the morning to eat up time. That sort of thing.
Life is not a dress rehearsal. This is it. There's no going back, and we can only go forward before we run out of runway.

Isn’t there still a director or producer saying “yes/no” to content before it airs?

Just when you thought things could not get even weirder.
