FOX 47 revolving door

Sink has issues with everyone. It’s sorta his niche in life.

I have no issues with you, TheWayItIs. So I guess that blows your thesis out of the water.

The fact is I don’t like whining baby men or incompetent managers. It’s a pretty simple formula for success.

Now he's a whining baby man? Stink... have you seen your posts on almost anything? Including arguing with the MMJ who works at the station you are bashing? I talk to people at 5, 12, 25, 47, 10, 6, 17, and 3 across the state from my teaching days. The people that upset you don't upset anyone else. I sense an immense amount of jealousy. It gets annoying. Us old timers should be a little more open to new people doing things differently. Looks to me like Sugden is making a splash in the market with all these posts about him.

Again, no one in the market knows what the fuck a Brad Sugden is.

Brad literally has 22k followers, people know who he is weirdo

No one cares about Brad — especially those “Flint fans” who haven’t figured out how to unfollow Brad, now living in Grand Rapids and forecasting for small market Lansing.

I think he does a good job. He's not perfect I'll admit. But, there's constant comments from his fans about wanting him back in multiple previous markets. I think different personalities appeal to different audiences. Like him or not, he seems to have found himself a fan base in every market he's in. I'm a big fan of others as well though. A few I don't like such as Katie N who does nothing but battle everyone on all her socials.

Most of those "follows" are from his WJRT days.

Then how do you explain the 30k on TikTok.. you know the one he made in lansing..

I assure you they didn't come from the three people who tune in. Again, no one in Lansing gives two shits about this newscast, and 99% of the area has no fucking clue who or what a Brad Sugden is.

Scripps’ management “team” emailed its spin following its town hall meetings with Adam, trying to calm fears. Instead it’s doing the exact opposite.

As it states in the email, Scripps is looking to potentially sell its stations. Under the current environment, most employees would say that’s a positive development.

The problem with any potential sake would be whoever purchases Scripps’ stations would have to make significant investments at the front end — a likely deal breaker. Most stations don’t have anchors, GMs like Gary have been demoted to station managers where they have taken on sales managers roles. The stations are understaffed. Stations like WSYM are underperforming in both ratings and revenue.

In short, Scripps has done everything to f up any future sale since it would be a major undertaking to right this sinking ship… despite whatever spin Adam continues to put out there… hoping to raise investor confidence in Scripps’ sinking stock price.

Bots. There are also ways to purchase followers on Tik Tok.

He got them from eclipse videos from his coverage in 2017. He's posted he got over 40 million views. I highly doubt he paid for that. He isn't Dave Bondy.

didn't 47 recently get a "BEST NEWSCAST" award from the MAB?
