"Coveting is what keeps the economy going. Your neighbor gets a vibrator that plays 'O Come All Ye Faithful', you wanna get one, too! Coveting creates jobs, leave it alone". -George Carlin Actually, the late Carlin has a whole way of taking the Ten Commandments down to two. It makes a lot of sense....

TV traffic reports are stupid. Who is watching a TV behind the wheel?

You're forgetting the people who put on the morning news while they're getting ready for work. Traffic reports on TV are handy to know what the commute will be like ahead of time.

We can afford the new sign on 131. We're bleeding money at this point. The WBKB deal was essentially done until we pulled out due to financial issues. Our staff is now feeling the financial concerns everyday.

9&10 was going to work with WBKB first?

"9, 10, & 11 News" has a ring to it.

It's part of a new graphics package being rolled out across all Gray stations. The removal of network logos from their stations seems to be part of it as well: https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17000-t ... /#comments

Great info - thank you!!! We shall see whether or not the FCC approves the proposed transaction. They might not given the fact Morgan Murphy presumably has some sort of connection to the proposed buyer and already owns WBKP and WBUP. Reading the other thread, it sounds like WJMN will be sold to an ...

Why do you think it will be any more unfair than any other jury trial. At least Trump isn't a person of color.

Orange is a color.

And on their final home game of the season, the Pistons clinch their worst season in franchise history by losing to the Bulls.

Dick Vitale, eat your heart out.

I wonder if WZZM is experiencing increased viewership over WOTV in the southern part of the market, so they're starting to do more news coverage that way to draw more eyes away from WOOD and WWMT. I wonder if 13 would ever consider leasing a subchannel on, say, the WGVK or WLLA towers to better serv...

Purdue makes the Final Four and will face 11-seed NC State, giving Purdue the chance to lose to a double-digit seed for the fourth consecutive tournament.

I think morons are making site selection decisions for the NCAA.

Apparently cities bid to host the regionals, so who knows what the initial applications were like.

I've never understood traffic reports on television. On the radio yes, but how many people have televisions in their car?? Morning traffic reports on TV make sense given you are probably still home and can learn of any snags that may impact the drive to work. Afternoon reports I do agree with you o...

NCAA REGIONAL IN ST. LOUIS. Big Ten conference and tournament champion MSU had WMU in the first round and then the winner of North Dakota/UM if we win. Seems like the toughest regional. Regionals should go back to being on campus OR they should be at a more centrally located arena. For example, thi...
