Fake News on Channel 7
These dum-dums just showed closing DJIA, NASDAQ and S&P 500 stats for today.
Only one problem with that: STOCK EXCHANGES WERE ALL CLOSED TODAY FOR PRESIDENT'S DAY!
I can only assume the displayed closing numbers were from last Friday's session.
Great job on quality control, Broadcast House.

Morgan Wallen is a piece of garbage.

Was it a sponsored slot? Getting $600 for a sponsorship is better than getting nothing... so the companies say. I'm with you.... Personally, if there is no traffic, stop doing live traffic (vehicles, not spot plotting) updates. Same thing, different examples.

Why spend the money on making sure the right stuff airs at the right time when you can pay someone to drive around and narrate “still light traffic out here” 10 times and waste 10 gallons of gas?TeddyBear wrote: ↑Tue Feb 22, 2022 6:21 amWas it a sponsored slot?

Technically the numbers were still correct. Was this at 4 or 5pm?

You would be great at Metro Times.
I've been to events that they also reported on. What was actually a dozen people basically just sitting and listening to people talking gets reported in MT as:
"A crowd of close to 50 almost caused a riot during ... "

Re: Fake News on Channel 7
While your point may be valid, may I suggest we keep the topic "Metro Detroit/SE Michigan"?n8fnr wrote: ↑Wed Feb 23, 2022 11:22 amWell at least WXYX does not praise a murderous dictator;

And this is about news, not opinion, so Fox and CNN should not even be compared.

How was it worded? I work there and I can say that sometimes that graphic is accompanied with a script that reads, “Let’s see where the markets will open up tomorrow.” Regardless of when the market last closed, that statement would still be factual.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Mon Feb 21, 2022 5:45 pmThese dum-dums just showed closing DJIA, NASDAQ and S&P 500 stats for today.

A typo or a mistake is not fake news, especially when the mistake is possibly made by the viewer.

Glenda introduced the graphic as the closing numbers for "today's trading session."
Nothing on the screen suggested the numbers were as of close from the prior Friday's session.
