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...

Re: Burning Bridges
Yeah not the best way to get a job, but if he's got nothing to lose I admire him for calling them out. Best of luck to him.

Re: FOX 47 revolving door
FOX47 can't keep anyone long enough to form a union. They have multiple lawsuits pending for how they've treated employees including discriminating on race, sexual orientation, and gender. How Gary survived the firings is beyond the realm of comprehension. They have another manager Joe with 15 compl...

FOX 47 weather
They had their new guy "covering" the tornado warning for Lansing. That was some of the worst coverage I've seen in recent memory. They should have had FOX17 step in if Brad Sugden wasn't there. For him to not be there on a severe weather day is absurd. FOX 47 continues to prove they can't compete i...

Re: WNEM News Director and Masters
WNEM News Director Jayne Hodak was at the Masters this past week. The word at the station is she used media credentials to go but didn't provide one iota of coverage for the station. :roll: She would be the first to nail anyone at the station if they were to do it. Not shocking that she is that hyp...

Re: FOX 47 revolving door
Then how do you explain the 30k on TikTok.. you know the one he made in lansing.. Bots. There are also ways to purchase followers on Tik Tok. He got them from eclipse videos from his coverage in 2017. He's posted he got over 40 million views. I highly doubt he paid for that. He isn't Dave Bondy.

Re: Demotions at Fox47
Gary is liked because he never says no to corporate. They want to lose anchors, Gary’s the first one to offer to slash positions. He has no new ideas, just excuses why his decisions are right and when it doesn’t result in bigger ratings or more ad dollars, then he blames others. It’s a old routine ...

Re: FOX 47 revolving door
No one cares about Brad — especially those “Flint fans” who haven’t figured out how to unfollow Brad, now living in Grand Rapids and forecasting for small market Lansing. I think he does a good job. He's not perfect I'll admit. But, there's constant comments from his fans about wanting him back in ...

Re: Demotions at Fox47
Neille has quit once, she’ll do it again. She doesn’t need to put up with the crap she’s getting from the demoted GM Gary. Apparently he's been taking his frustrations and lack of success out on his staff lately. Morale is even lower there now than it has been. Two racist, misogynistic, and homopho...

Re: FOX 47 revolving door
I have no issues with you, TheWayItIs. So I guess that blows your thesis out of the water. The fact is I don’t like whining baby men or incompetent managers. It’s a pretty simple formula for success. Now he's a whining baby man? Stink... have you seen your posts on almost anything? Including arguin...

Re: FOX 47 revolving door
I've never heard any one have issues with Brad before. No one says he's got an ego like that either. Where are you getting this information on him? Did you work together? He had publicly posted he talks to and visits with almost the staff there. He made it no secret he had issues with management, an...
