Re: BEASLEY MEDIA INITIATES 7% STAFF LAYOFFS
Unlikely, except for perhaps one or more of the translators. Beasley, if it needs to raise cash prior to entering chapter 11, is more likely to look to divest stations in New Jersey, its crappy standalone AM in Atlanta, or stations in the puny Augusta, GA and Fayetteville, NC markets. Do you think ...

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. I am unsure how one can prove what portion of climate change can be directly attributed to burning of fossil fuels. I am also unsure how e...

Re: MTG Smack down
Rashida Tlaib's seat is very safe. She won in a landslide in the 2022 general. The Arab and African American communities and many white progressives view her fondly. I live on the NE edge of her district. Her most recent quarterly mailing showed a detailed list of all the federal grant money she (p...

Re: Gannett screws over award winning Holland Sentinel editor
The Bridge is excellent; that is a terrific thought.
WOOD-TV has hired newspaper reporters in the past; maybe she'd be a good fit for them, too.

Gannett screws over award winning Holland Sentinel editor
This is an excellent and eye opening report on Gannett's toxic corporate culture from The Detroit News: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/michigan/2024/05/09/michigan-editor-who-covered-ottawa-county-upheaval-fired/73614238007/ I feel bad for the employees of Gannett's community newspaper...

WAKV during its Adult Standards / Big Band era was a cool little station! He had a great voice, too.

Re: BEASLEY MEDIA INITIATES 7% STAFF LAYOFFS
If you mean in terms of present day values, probably a range of $8 million to $10 million. Caroline Beasley is delusional based on her earnings announcement remarks: "In summary, Beasley's underlying fundamentals-mainly, our local audio and digital platforms and audience engagement-remain strong. We...

Re: BEASLEY MEDIA INITIATES 7% STAFF LAYOFFS
They overpaid for 105.9 and that group of translators.
Cumulus evidently didn't want to sell 93.1 to a commercial broadcaster. 93.1 sold for about $3 million less than 105.9.

Re: RFK, Jr trying to show he belongs on the debate stage
There are indeed a select few that have severe allergic reactions to vaccine ingredients (egg, as an example). Sorry to hear about those reactions; that is extremely scary stuff!!! In such situations, forgoing the vaccine is absolutely the correct choice. For children who have no history of incurrin...

Re: Weather reporting
The primary tornado that carved a path from Centreville to near Union City based on a preliminary assessment had peak winds of 130 MPH, making it an EF-2. This is the twister that spawned a tornado emergency declaration for northern Branch County for a time. A much weaker, brief secondary tornado wa...
