Re: I-375 deconstruction is crony capitalism in action
Crony capitalism isn't a pejorative to capitalists, it's a pejorative to government officials, whether those be elected or non-elected bureaucrats, who funnel the taxpayers money to recipients who have not fairly competed for those funds. There really should be laws and severe penalties addressing t...

Re: Netanyahu jeopardizes US relationship
Still wondering why NONE of the neighboring countries would take the "innocent civilian" Palestinians in and shelter them until the warfare has subsided. I'll bet they could even make a valid case to the UN to get reimbursed for cost.
Anyone else have an answer to that?

Re: Local 4 buyout packages
That's why the stations/media companies put those ridiculously long non-compete clauses in their talent contracts. They absolutely hate the free market when it comes to paying their employees. To some degree it's understandable and justified. If the station is doing a lot of promotion and developme...

Re: WDIV off the air?
Curious if it was just the off-air signals or were Comcast signals affected too? I believe Comcast gets their feed directly on a fiber connection.

Has HAMAS ever reported how many of their combatants have been killed?

Re: Local 4 buyout packages
Dupnack not going anywhere. It was a threat so she could get more at Fox 2 and wanted more anchoring time. Don't blame her a bit. That is the only way you know your true worth... shop your skills around and see if someone will actually pay you more. More folks would be happier (or get a rude awaken...

Re: Local 4 buyout packages
Update to the Jessica Dupnack story. Fox 2 was able to dig deep and counter 4s offer after all so she will remain with Fox 2. That's good news. I saw her doing a story (recorded though, so I didn't know how old it was) after it was stated she was going to 4 and was wondering how they got away with ...

Re: Netanyahu jeopardizes US relationship
Did Hamas only kill IDF Soldiers? Let me help you, no. Now Where did I read about an eye for an eye? So, 1400 vs 35,000. Bad analogy that firthersy point. There is no rational justification for what IDF is and has done. No one is questioning that the 1400 were innocent civilians. But absolutely no ...

Re: The Bias of Alito
Really this shouldn't have anything to do with the justices personal stances, unless those actually affect their judgements on the bench. If they can't defend their decisions on the bench with logic on how their decision on a matter aligns with the standing law or the Constitution, then THAT is wher...

Re: I-375 deconstruction is crony capitalism in action
As I recall, the original-original plan (late 1950s) was to have the 375 expressway connect to the US10 expressway (the Lodge) on Jefferson, as an expressway. That's a pretty stupid plan. It would have destroyed downtown. Actually... he might be right. What he's describing is the way the business s...

Re: More stupidity from Dana Nessel
It’s a finite resource. We WILL RUN OUT in the next 100 years or so. Obsolescence will happen whether you approve or not. If we all believed that "peak oil" BS in the 70's we'd have been out of oil and gas a couple decades ago! Rate This doesn't have the Petroleum Tin Foil Hat. Oil consumption is o...

Re: More stupidity from Dana Nessel
The suits state attorneys general filed against 3M, et al. for PFAS made sense. Harm in precise physical locations could be directly attributed to the substance.
