So, several funny parts about this story.
Matthew Smith, political opportunist, conservative, right-wing, young, and still in college, gets hired by TV5.
Then, the union gets ticked off because he’s not in the union because he’s freelance. So, the union makes a rule so that only college graduates can be reporters. Nice.
Then, Smith becomes a Davison School Board member and GOP chairperson for Genesee County.
He first denies, then admits to making a threatening phone call to a clerk in the Upper Peninsula.
Then, former TV25 and TV12 meteorologist Kevin Usellman leads a campaign to get Smith recalled from the Davison School Board. It’s all positive media coverage to recall Smith and all negative coverage for Smith himself.
Believing they got enough signatures, the recall campaign spikes the football and nominates the campaign’s president to run as the next school board member.
But, clerks say there’s not enough valid signatures. The recall is thrown out, and everyone looks stupid.
