Re: Deltaplex Permanenty Closing in July 2022

Sholmes wasn't talking about 'political events' at the venue. Langlois is a MAGA clown who has posted incendiary things on his Facebook page and elsewhere. He recently posted that he couldn't wait until Dr. Fauci was arrested and sent to prison. He would also have enjoyed watching our governor get ...

Re: Deltaplex Permanenty Closing in July 2022

Perhaps if they would have stayed out of politics and just stuck to entertaining they would still be open.

I went to a Shrine Circus there one time and found it to be more like a High School gym and the seats just ad uncomfortable

I saw her also, was concerned about fluffing her hair and does way to much nodding at the hand off

Re: Lansing News Coverage Sucks

I agree, there are a lot of Non-Story out there. Just trying to fill time now since we went from Local News at 6pm and 11pm back in the day to now a news cast at (in some markets) 4, 4:30, 5, 5:30, 6, 7, 10, 11. REALLY? May be cheaper then re-runs of Sinfeld and MASH, but at what cost. Also now they...

Re: Doctor complains about TV 8's Whitney Burney's looks on screen

There is just one in West Michigan with that name and a phone number that starts with a 2

Should figure out which hospitals he has access to and complain to those health systems

Has WZZM named Nike Lafaye's replacement?

I thought I heard today at the opening of the 6pm news that the anchors are Juliette and Val.

Has Val been named as Nick's replacement at 6pm?

Re: Job Opening: Chief Evening Meteorologist, Fox 47 WSYM

Interesting that this person will not actually live and work in Lansing but will be in Grand Rapids. How long until they just decide to do a regional news cast out of Grand Rapids. I thought Channel 7 news was well received in Lansing when it was on 53 decades ago. Why are they not using the WYXZ te...

I really do not see them taking a wrecking ball to the precious Weather Deck and Weather Ball.

Do they still have the news set at the Public Museum? They could move over there.

Rethinking our move to the area. Without Deal Mart what good is WATZ?

Does this mean they will also cut Polka, Polka, Polka on Sunday Morning?

More likely that Nick would depart next. Brent's departure leaves a H*** hole at 13.
Yes, Nick is leaving. Isn't that common knowledge at this point? Gone in December.
Are they getting rid of the guys tied to the Shannon Grove issue?

I wonder when Jueliett will be announcing her departure. They already replaced Brett with Montgomery as the storey teller
