I just saw WNEM TV 5 News At 5 with a different new opening. The background music has changed!! Also the letters & numbers are different!!

Anything to keep them relevant in the marketplace. It’s just a sad market for tv news stations.

Kennedy Broadwell left... never saw her on the TV except for commercials. I wonder why the Comma even says they have a sports department if they're never on the television... oh well... Bill Froelich still hasn't painted the new comma logo on 131 yet.... Did you ever just wake up and realize, "Holy...

9&10 Oh Jesus, they are barely capable of putting out a newscast. It should be Jordan Travis at the Record Eagle. Based on what information? That little cry baby bitch TKing? If he was so smart, find another job in the industry. But they clearly know less than all us keyboard warriors. I watch whil...

It will likely be at the Hagerty Center, Denos, or Opera House.

The presser merely states that a group is offering debates, but there hasn't been any agreement from the candidates.

Anyone know which outlet would moderate it?

Detroit News is reporting there will be a U.S. Senate debate in TC this fall. Does anyone know who is hosting it?

A station that dominates the market is having money issues that bad? Time for new managers and "leadership"

Name a station that isn’t having money problems lol

I’ve heard the WJRT news director doesn’t live in the viewing area either. I feel like this is a common thing now a days that these people aren’t in their newsrooms.

WNEM News Director Jayne Hodak was at the Masters this past week. The word at the station is she used media credentials to go but didn't provide one iota of coverage for the station. :roll: She would be the first to nail anyone at the station if they were to do it. Not shocking that she is that hyp...

Of course it’s more than just translation. But it’s not a massive job eliminator like many think. If anything, they’ll use it to expect more out of employees, some jobs might be eliminated. But right now, it’s not really all that usable for local stations.

My man, calm down. It’s just for translating. The use of AI taking over newsrooms is not going to happen. It will be like when newsrooms embraced linear editing. There’s no way you can even replace writers with AI. It’s too editorialized. Plus you need someone to still make edits to AI. so what’s th...

The fact he’s doubling down speaks to his inept reporting integrity https://davebondy.locals.com/post/54771 ... -this-week

Classic Bondy, making up a story to fit his narrative. How long until the rest of the state sees this fraud for who he really is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHJ0EsZfDxw https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2024/04/04/how-a-tall-tale-of-illegal-immigrants-in-michigan-soliciting-kids-m...

2. Would we get out of market affiliates from the tri-cities? I think the more likely scenario would be 7&4 picking up the affiliations and putting them on subchannels. NBC/CBS on 7&4, ABC/Fox on 29&8. No way that’s even going to happen. Sinclair doesn’t care about their TC market, let alone buying...

I feel like 9&10 being sold has been talked about for decades. There’s a reason they haven’t yet, right? If they wanted to be sold it would have happened by now. I’m sure Sinclair wanted them rather than 7&4.
