Re: WOOD TV goes dark during middle of Lions game

Also, how does a TV station not have a continuity plan in place for big events like this?

Re: WOOD TV goes dark during middle of Lions game

A massive IT failure in Indianapolis appears to be the culprit. https://www.woodtv.com/about-us/signal-disruption-affecting-lions-game-viewers/?fbclid=IwAR3Q2UQ4VlUfF0PQbleNygQEazRdWNsvns1--b1uNi9ytwOMymXOPzjlH4E Amanda Porter was responding on Twitter that it was an NBC issue.

Re: MSU vs. UM hockey this weekend

I think we probably should be in the business of judging things that happened over 100 years ago by today's standards. Kind of like Michigan fans who like to brag about how they beat MAC 222-0 back in 18-dickety-2? Or bragging about that overall record against State that isn't quite as impressive w...

Re: Nielsen audio AQH shares - new results for GR, K'zoo and Muskegon

I just read Grahams response to my post and to some extent I can say yes many songs such as "More Than a Feeling" by Boston which was a top 40 hit when I was in high school has been and still is overplayed. What I would do if I were to go up against WLAV as a classic rock station would be to offer ...

Re: TV meteorologists

I’ve been forecasting for longer than Blake has been alive. I’m pretty sure I’m more than qualified to comment on the pseudo science he claims to use to forecast school closings. It’s not a technique that’s scientifically authenticated by any real meteorological accreditation source, Luke the AMS, ...

Re: Nielsen audio AQH shares - new results for GR, K'zoo and Muskegon

As always I was glad to see the December ratings posted. First of all the most impressive jump was with Star 105.7 with their Christmas music jumping from a 4.2% share to a 6.2% share. The Christmas boost wasn't quite so favorable for the other Christmas station "The River" that went from a 2.2% to...

Re: 9&10 is such a mess right now

You all should do what they do in Lansing. Hire a couple college kids to copy/paste press releases into articles on the website. Then, the anchors can read those verbatim on the air. There is no longer any need to have an actual reporter do any digging. The police departments and governments are kno...

Re: Guaranteed Income Starts in Flint

Yes, government handouts of $7500, most of which will end up being used to buy new TVs and cell phones, will really help eliminate poverty.... Will it? Do you have ANY data to support this? Because this program is modeled from one that has plenty of success. Do you know what the cost of early child...

Re: Bally Sports May Lose TV Rights to MLB Next Week

Sports teams need to leave cable. It's time. Amazon would be perfect. Boomers with cable can watch reruns of Blue Bloods and NCIS all day. Amazon has pulled out. Broadcast TV would be perfect. Boomers are dropping Cable for Streaming and Broadcast TV. Boomers are bitching about streaming because it...
