Another one bites the dust
New manager with 15+ HR complaints, Joe Downs, finally fired from FOX47. He made comments to reporters about size, sex, sexual orientation, race, and more. It took 15+ complaints and 6+ months for them to fire him. After the string of firings / quittings I only have one source left in there.

Re: Demotions at Fox47
Absolutely. They have minimal talent left. WiLX and WLNS have nothing to worry about.high fidelity wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2024 7:18 pmLarry and Tiana have been good reporters for that station.

Re: Demotions at Fox47
They're too busy handling all the grievances from unhappy employees that they created. Ha. Ha. Ha. I'm surprised they're still employed with the horror stories I've heard lately on how they've treated their best talent.

Does that surprise anyone? He probably doesn't even know to pronounce Alpena

Brad fired
Brad was fired from FOX47. They wanted to move him to Lansing five days per week and he said no. My source there says they offered no compensation, mileage reimbursement, moving expenses, or a raise. He said no and they fired him. There are other big issues behind the scenes with him as well. Appare...

Re: Demotions at Fox47
Spoke to my people at the station. They had nothing but good things to say about Brad and that he's on leave because of more nonsense from management. Sounds like something bad happened that they wouldn't say, just that he deserved to go on leave after "what they did to him." Additionally, they want...

Re: Demotions at Fox47
FOX 47 still has not added its newest meteorologists to the website and is still promoting FOX17 mets as covering. Jake D has been covering for Brad for about a week. While one can assume he is on vacation, he has been posting a lot on his social media platforms like he is working from home. Did he ...

Re: 9&10 is such a mess right now
A station that dominates the market is having money issues that bad? Time for new managers and "leadership"

Re: Demotions at Fox47
You are exactly right. Gary is selling newscasts with FOX47 news on the road or whatever he's calling it. I heard from multiple people that Gary had openly silenced employees, especially women, right in front of corporate during their visits when they would question what Scripps / Gary was doing. To...
