Re: Constant negativity

Kim Adams for one, is making close to 500K a year and is a Chief in market 15 for a reason, whether you like it or not. Yes, those reasons are: 1. It is market 15 and she works cheap. Fifteen years ago, she might command that and get it. I don't believe she makes anywhere near that today. They were...

Old Uncle Fred (Jacobs) the so called godfather and inventor of all things classic rock, always makes it a point to say "We don't play new releases by classic artists"
The Jacobs are still at it? I can't believe a Gen X, Millenial or Gen Z programmer would take their phone calls.

MW, when are you going to offer up your expertise as a part time weatherman?
He'll need to get bolt-ons and transition in order to have any chance at WDIV.

Re: Fox 2 :: Your PQ Sucks

I figured out some of the issue. 2,4,7 are carrying WMYD on their legacy streams in order to use WMYD's license for ATSC 3.0.

But holy crap is the ATSC 3.0 PQ awful, and the lighthouse station is making everything else awful.

Re: Fox 2 :: Your PQ Sucks

I had a chance to gather some data today. ATSC3...they're not even trying. Not sure how they think 8 megabits is acceptable for sports with MPEG2 encoding, but hey, that passive income from showing old TV shows I guess is too hard to pass. https://i.ibb.co/QJJmdgT/Screen-Shot-2023-09-09-at-12-09-12-...

Re: Fox 2 :: Your PQ Sucks

Is this only on the 3.0 broadcasts, or are you seeing this on their regular channels? I have not seen any of their 3.0 stuff yet. No, it is everything. The halo effect around people (more like a watery ghosty outline) was coming from network and was confirmed by looking at Fox 36 out of Toledo as w...

Fox 2 :: Your PQ Sucks

Dear Fox 2, Your picture quality sucks. Now I know some of the motion artifacts are coming over the network, especially that halo affect around players because of the grass, but holy crap if I were AT&T, I'd ask for a refund for that mottled paid graphic over the score. Channel 7, you're not far beh...

Re: Boblo Boat Documentary: Watch the special live Sunday night on Local 4

The show made the restoration controversial because racism and Detroit's neighborhoods have been neglected. Those boats are in no way a warm soft fond remembrance of days past because for older black citizens of Detroit, they represent segregation. Segregation that was shamelessly defended to the b...

That's the guy they decide to get rid off? Did they forget where Bernie's office is?

Ha! That was funny.

General manager Bobby Ellis was Bernie's lackey in the 90's, sadly Bernie isn't going anywhere with Ellis at the helm unless Bernie wants out.

Re: Update - sale of WDRQ to Family Life Radio CONFIRMED

This is how the AM band marked its decline, the religious broadcasters piled in one after another as corporate radio sought to put its money elsewhere.

Re: NBC Nightly News on MeTV

That sounds like an engineering f-up. I bet someone patched incorrectly or moved video to where it is not supposed to be. Or in the case of network switched video, didn't program something correctly.

The Great Voice of the Great Lakes!

It's become quite evident why Mike Wheeler didn't survive in the Atlanta market. Terrible programmer.

Re: C'mon Kim Adams - get a clue...

I cannot stand Kim Adams. Classic sociopath. I celebrated when she left the first time and was pissed when they brought her back. She reminds me of the character from the movie “to die for”. Manipulative and vain, shallow and untrustworthy, self centered and cruel. Holy crap. She's just someone doi...

Re: C'mon Kim Adams - get a clue...

Does she have any idea what the hell she's talking about? No, because she's a product of a broadcast diploma mill.
