Re: Democrats take back control of the house

there should never be ties, either add a 111th member, or have the Lt. Governor break ties like they can in the state senate. Therein lies the issue with this legal gerrymandering law. It focuses more on being fair to the political parties at the expense of actually representing the citizens in the...

The comparison? The top people at NBC hired someone. The top people at NPR, according to Uri anyways, don't hire a specific group of people (allegedly, Republicans) Employees at NBC publicly criticized the top people at NBC for hiring a certain person.

Great win and a +2 for Democrats in the State House. https://i.ibb.co/6mVcfht/Screenshot-20240417-082146.png Good.

Tracey replaced Al Pinter, or was there someone in between?

It'll always be Action News to me, no matter what they call it.
Here’s the guy between Pinter and Tracey.. this is dated 1996:

Re: Channel 7 (WXYZ) rebranding next Monday?

Zap2It and other guides are all suggesting that after five decades, WXYZ is finally ditching the Action News name effective next Monday (4/22) in favor of a generic "7 News Detroit" branding: https://i.imgur.com/V81ZbTL.png I have yet to see any announcement from WXYZ on this branding yet.

Would you rather I start creating as many pro-Trump posts in here as Matt creates anti-Trump posts?

Honestly I probably won't have much to say until we get closer to the election, but you better believe that when he wins, I'll be rubbing all your noses in it.
He isn’t gonna win dude.
