Re: Hmmm,is the news drought at CBS62 about to come to an end?

I agree completely with Rick here. News conscious viewers usually turn to established sources they trust during important news cycles, not a fledgling upstart. Actually, trust in establishment news is at a record low. There's more people watching "a jagoff pothead comedian in his garage" report the...

Re: Hmmm,is the news drought at CBS62 about to come to an end?

LOL! I didn't mean to suggest those would all be good hires. :) Also keep an eye open for Tom Jordan, who did TV in San Diego for a number of years. I think 62 launching a local TV news operation is a bad idea. I've held that viewpoint for years and still feel that way today. I think CBS is looking...

Re: Detroit Classic Rock Radio

Art rock and progressive rock have been purity purged off the airwaves despite the fact that enough people still love progressive rock enough to throw money at it. Of course, Dream Theater is a beast, but ever since Styx and Kansas have gone back to thier progressive roots, thier last few studio alb...

Re: Going up against Jeopardy

Family Feud is a monster in syndication and hasn't left the air since Louie Anderson brought it back. I know a lot of people that say Steve Harvey turned it too ghetto but I say it was necessary since it is a spin off of Match Game and both shows have a history of host that are masters of the double...

Re: Going up against Jeopardy

Sony screwed the pooch here. Alex Trebek was to Jeopardy what Art Fleming was to Jeopardy. Once Alex passed away, they should've announced that Jeopardy has to take a few years off so that people who miss Alex will one day miss Jeopardy more, and be more receptive to a new host. People even said tha...

Re: Will 98.3 in Monroe Re-brand or Flip?

When they were WVMO, and early Tower 98, where was the transmitter tower located? Still in Monroe County, not Jerusalem Township, no? I believe it was located near the corner of Dunbar and La Plaisance in Monroe county - just west of I-75 ... There was a service drive just past the railroad tracks ...

Re: WIOT

WIOT hasn't been the same since mid-80s to mid-90s when they actually had talent. Mark Benson, Jeff Lamb, John Ballentine, Will Worster, Don Davis, Lyn Casey, Mohammed, Michael Young, Terry Sullivan (who now appears on Powerbomb Wrestling with Norm Wamer). But they also had a weird audio processing ...

Re: Changes probably coming soon at WPXD (ION).

This has me on the fence. Here in Monroe, the only time I can picked up WPXD was when I lived on the 3rd floor with a West facing living room window. With me being on the 2nd floor with an East facing window, I'm lucky to pick on 3 stations with my indoor Yagi and WMYD was one of easiest for me. Thu...
