Re: Snow forecast

Yes, all three stations get modeling information from their weather computer service provider and the National Weather Service. However, the mets still need to interpret the data to come up with their forecast. At the Rusty Nickle, Bachman, Miller and Easlick don't compare notes and that's why you g...

Re: Greta Van Fleet to "SNL"

It's great to see some local boys be recognized for their hard work. Looking forward to Saturday's performance!

Re: WNEM's Newest Low

You have a News Director at TV5 who isn't from the area, doesn't care about covering issues that affect our viewers, has no new ideas, and resorts to gimmicks. And as long as the station continues to be number one in ratings, the new GM has no reason to force change. I'll take WJRT or WEYI over this...

Re: Yule Log vs. News

In the words of Saturday Night Live: "Jane, you ignorant slut..." HL101: once again you show how clueless you are. Whoever said I was part of the union? And if you actually read the post, you'd realize I'm OK with working holidays. And as a person who works at TV5, I have just as much right to criti...

Re: Yule Log vs. News

You, HL101, are the ultimate hypocrite. You make personal attacks every chance you get. Which is why many, many people on this board can't seem to understand why the moderator doesn't ban you. As far as getting paid... yes, I make my living as a professional journalist. And if you think the men and ...

Re: Personal political opinions on news folks' Facebook pages

For a bunch of people who say you've given up on local media and don't watch anymore, I find it humorous that you have so many opinions about everything. I'd say the ones who have hidden political agendas are HL101 and his second account, R Bedell.

Re: An editor? Please!

There's the HL101 that we all love to despise! Another attack on his former employer!

Here's to more hate-filled posts from the troll in 2019... and to the moderator turning a blind eye to it.

I do agree with you on one thing: we do deserve better.

Re: Yule Log vs. News

Sorry Mr. Wellington that you were so offended by my post that you felt you needed to resort to a personal attack. I work for TV5. And I've sacrificed time with my family (hence, yes I've been dateless and happily married for many years) on far too many holidays to bring the news to mid-Michigan vie...

Yule Log vs. News

Sad state of affairs when TV5 decides it would rather air a Yule Log program instead of news. Says a lot about the lack of respect the current management has toward its news team. At least some of us will get to stay home Christmas morning. SMH

Selling Cook Books

Anyone else see Friday's stellar piece of "journalism" by TV5? It's appalling that a so-called journalist (Meg McLeod) would do a half hour infomercial selling parent company's Meredith/Better Homes and Garden's new cookbook. Walter Cronkite must be spinning in his grave. Great job by the GM and New...

Kincade: big difference is John McMurray had ethics and would stand up to Kirtek and Hodak. Christina doesn't.
