The much-traveled Sean Baligian was the host for several years....

The weekday 10a-12noon sports-talk show on WJRW-AM 1340/106.1 has been absent for the last several weeks. Hosted by Brian Fongers and Travis Gibbs (the latter part of the LAV-FM morning show), the time slot is now regularly filled by the CBS Radio network's Bill Reiter "Reiter Than You." All of this...

So, two questions remain: why the move back to terrestrial radio, and any other stations carrying the games? (leading into commercial breaks between innings, the announcers still refer to it as the "Whitecaps Baseball Network").

The minor league baseball West Michigan Whitecaps squad is back on WJRW-AM 1340 (Grand Rapids) once again. After a year (or two?) offering online only play-by-play, announcer Dan Hasty is back on the terrestrial airwaves. It seemed to happen suddenly - I didn't hear a big ramp-up of promotion for th...

Justin does a local Grand Rapids show on WOOD-AM/FM from 9 to 10am weekdays. .. heard him mistakenly let slip a 930AM reference the other morning on his GR show....

Agreed, ChrisWL1980, but there aren't many resources for a local station to take on a bunch of air staff to do locally produced programming (just like most mainstream stations). And I'm not sure what network sources exist for that type of air-fare. (I'll have to check out Spirit 90.5 in Tampa). I wi...

In March I dropped in for a visit to WVHF-AM (1140) in Grand Rapids. It's called Holy Family Radio – Catholic radio for West Michigan . The station was wrapping up its spring on-air pledge drive in its newly-located studios – the second floor of the Sun Title building on Plainfield Ave NE in GR's Cr...

It still feels awkward to see the late afternoon Storm Team TV 8 meteorologists having to tag their weather reports by also doing the traffic. (at least I think they stop the traffic updates at 5:20pm).....

Much more than ever I'm seeing local TV news shops introducing news stories "from our sister station in..... (insert name of other Michigan city); or "our affiliate in....." in order to get a news story (even a light-hearted feature) from elsewhere in the state. Reason? :expanded local newscasts wit...

any results from AM910 The Superstation yet? Are they programming sports or some other flavor of the month?
(I'm out of market, and App listening isn't the easiest thing....)

actually, the name Parker uses for Matt Stafford is Stat Padfford......

Ms. Gerber is coming from a TV station in Topeka, Kansas, where the top sports stories all summer long are what the heartland's major universities are doing during their summertime football camps...

Is Ms. JennerJohn WWMT's only dedicated field-assigned reporter at this point? Or does she also do some anchoring?

.....then I assume that the sponsors of GVSU football and basketball broadcasts, and their corresponding coach's shows during the week, are secured and billed by the university and not Cumulus? Or is there some revenue sharing arrangement there?

After Bill Steffens left TV-13 wx to move to crosstown WOOD-TV, I recall TV-13 often promoting George as a born and raised in West Michigan weathercaster, because Steffens wasn't!
