After Mario passed the station really declined in product.
The Logo is ridiculous. The sets look like stage sets from community theater . The chief meteorologist seems to be his own boss. He needs to do the weather at night.
Gray Media or Nextstar needs to buy them.
The station looks like it needs a go fund me page

Why Gray?

Now that the ownership limit is officially removed, I could see Sinclair buying the station at some point. That would be very bad

Thanks for getting me up to speed on the latest FCC (non)regulations! Apparently things will be determined on a case-by-case basis. One can expect a lot of legal wrangling since it was Congress which originally set the ownership caps in place. Stay tuned.

Most definitely. It's going to be a trip.

Our website is a joke. We have a new reporter who’s been here for 3 months and she’s not on the website yet? To make it worse, we have a reporter on the website that’s not been on the air in over a year? We need to do better!

Probably nobody knows how to code. Or laziness.

Not my department and I don’t have privileges. I’ve went to our leadership numerous times to remind them, but still nothing.

Madison’s been here for three months and still nothing. Jill Suffolk has been gone for a year! Why is she still listed. Also, we have NOTHING about Line 5 being approved? 7/4 is killing us on it.

Holy smokies... you're right. The new meteorologist and Ms. Service came after Madison.

WTF Comma.

Based on the news product alone, I think 7&4 is going to make some headway in the ratings - if it hasn't already, even with that horrid news set.

How is the website that contains NEWS not part of the NEWS department? I get backend stuff but take some responsibility.

Again, why can’t you post this? Seems like someone who no longer works there, and is just bitter.
