Re: Trouble at CBS News Detroit

Staff was shown ratings information at a recent meeting in November. Newscasts, in the evening mainly, are beating WXYZ at multiple times and multiple days per week. Viewership seems to disagree with the assessment of this board. WXYZ is a distant 3rd without a doubt but to be that close within the...

Re: WDIV studio

I have no inside information, but I noticed the signs a couple of weeks ago. "Live In The D" moved to a different, more "homey" set, and the main camera angle on "First at 4" was switched to show the large video wall that's to the left of the anchor desk (when you're looking at it.) Also, in a shot ...

Does Comcast have all of the channel 4 subchannels?
Where are they located; I can't find them.
The only one they don't carry - unfortunately, IMO - is Cozi.

Re: "Richard Burton, from the old WHND, Honeyradio R.I.P

The Richard D. Haase we all remember from Honey Radio was much older than the Richard in the death notice above. The original, if you will, died a few days after Christmas last year and lived in Warren. He was 87 and was on WHND from 1980 to 1994 while working in IT for Greater Media. Based on the d...

Re: WXYZ-TV's 75th anniversary special

"This one ended up being, look how awesome we are now..."
