Re: 9&10 is such a mess right now

Curious if Black Diamond or Midwestern is experiencing a large downturn in local advertising like local TV then? Ad revenue is up on Amazon, Walmart and Facebook cloud platforms. I couldn't imagine being a stand alone station with a H*** debt and trying to make it in today's climate.

Re: 9&10 is such a mess right now

Any idea what a reporter makes a year in Denver vs working as a head anchor at 9 and 10?

Re: La’Nita Brooks Instagram

Wow she would be great fit for the "Junk in the Trunk" segment on WDZZ 92.7 FM in Flint. That runs from 5pm to 6pm weekdays.

Re: Should I Apply for this?

I'm agreeing with Craig I bet it's Jerry. He's obviously past retirement age and probably wants to slow down

Re: 98.9 is being sold

It's kinda sad actually. The African American man that started it actually was a sales manager for WDZZ before building that station. From what I was told he was a sales machine and could sell advertising like crazy. After his passing the family worked out a LMA deal and now unloading it all togethe...

I think Mr wellington and Caliber should sell their houses and send the proceeds to smile FM. Think of message that could be sent to even more underprivileged community's nationwide.

I just noticed W278BX 103.5 FM in Saginaw is now part of the Smile FM network today. What happened to Radio U? You can now hear the Dollar General of radio on 4 different stations all beaming into Saginaw.

Re: 96.7 W244EN Flint/Lapeer. Junkalator

WCZE positive County sucks in my opinion. What is country music without the cheating, dog dying and loosing your unskilled labor job down at the factory? While Eds skills are superb in building transmitters and handmade antenna's he's not hitting a home run with this format. On a different note it w...

P.S obviously non profits don't pay taxes.. I kinda said that wrong. Maybe you can only sit on so much of that donation money and it has to be spent.

Re: 96.7 W244EN Flint/Lapeer. Junkalator

Maybe ED is using it as a tax deduction? I'm not sure how those non profit companies work but just a guess. Look at positive county 103.7 WCZE in the thumb. Owned by the smile network folks and the format makes no sense. Smiling ED has saturated Michigan with his translators and transmitters. He's t...

Re: 1380 WGLM

You folks forget Jeff owned WYBR Y102 in Big Rapids back in the late 90s as well. I think he sold that before letting WPLB go.

Maybe Ron Jolly can be the new producer/content creator. Oh and obviously read the News.
