New Downtown TV5 Studio
New Downtown TV5 Studio
WNEM held a ribbon cutting for its rededicated Flint studio space.

Not sure why TV5 is making a big push in Flint. I doubt that Flint viewers will tune out from ABC 12. And as 25-66 has found out, making ratings in roads in Flint is nearly impossible.
I’m sure Ken believes there is a financial benefit by growing its advertising base. But it feels like Groundhog Day all over again…

Custer got a perm? And what's with the stubbly goatee? Not a good look for our trusted news source.

Re: New Downtown TV5 Studio
Rededication - We've had this space for a number of years collecting dust. We need to justify it, so we hijack an existing event downtown, buy a thick ribbon from Joann Fabric, and make it look like we made a large financial investment in Flint. We cut the ribbon, knowing innocent bystanders who have no clue what's going on will cheer because they see a ribbon being cut and a TV camera. We buy ourselves a year of goodwill, while letting dust continue to collect in the "studio". All for a $4.99 roll of ribbon and a giant scissors we found in a closet at the station.

That’s brilliant. I thought since Jayne was at 12 for so long, maybe she was going to go after 12’s audience and the downtown studio was a part of the strategy.
Re: New Downtown TV5 Studio
Jayne and Ken are the best leaders TV5 has had in a long time. Would only expect things to get better the more Gray gets established.
Re: New Downtown TV5 Studio
I thought Flint liked TV5 since its number1 as that was the reason Gray took TV5 and sold TV12 to Byron Allen.

Nice homophobia, jackass. Some of you in this forum, seek help.Reagan4prez wrote: ↑Wed Dec 08, 2021 9:36 amProbably got a manicure, pedicure, and his eyebrows done too. Possibly a Brazilian wax as well.
Re: New Downtown TV5 Studio
That wasn’t your intended message. Again, seek help.
Re: New Downtown TV5 Studio
Do you really expect WNEM to do anything with that studio in Flint? The broadcasts from there were atrocious and a nightmare for Master Control. The split anchors was an experiment that should never have been repeated. Not to mention that the closed captioning was on a delay when it actually worked.
Re: New Downtown TV5 Studio
I still remember when they were at G-3426 Miller Road, by the bowling alley. They microwaved the signal to Hurley Hospital, which then microwaved it to Indiantown.
Re: New Downtown TV5 Studio
Saw that in late 1975 when I was in Flint, MI (where WNEM TV 5 building was) for the first time with my late parents!!
