What is wrong with WLNS?

First Emily Wahls leaves, then Melissa Brennan? They were the only reasons I watched that newscast in the Mornings... :shock:

Emily moved to WILX. Preparing weather casts, but not on the air yet due to a non-compete clause.

Oh by the way WLNS began its demo of the old set today, they will get a total refresh [set,graphics,etc]

When I'm in Mid-Michigan, I watch WILX for the superior on-air talent, but I wish they'd step it up in terms of visual appeal. WLNS has had better graphics than WILX for years. WILX currently uses at least three completely different graphics packages in the same newscast depending on what the story is about and it drives me nuts! It's just so disjointed... They have their regular graphics, a different graphics package for sports, another one for election stories... There might be more. When they started using the election graphics, they had to move their station logo to the opposite corner of the screen because it covered the election graphics, but now it's in an awkward spot with the regular graphics. It's a mess.

I think the new look will debit in mid january 2021 and will leave their competition in the dust

A new set won’t make any difference in solving the issues at the Old Country House. It needs new blood at the top.

Did this recent migration from the station actually begin with Alexandra Illitch?
