Re: WDIV's Bryan Schuerman is a moron

It is 63 right now in Romulus. The official TOH observation at DTW was 63 as well.

Temp dropped three degrees between Noon and 2PM at DTW and four degrees at PTK.

We've already reached our high temps for the day.

WDIV's Bryan Schuerman is a moron

The nasally voiced clown is forecasting a high of 75 degrees this afternoon. Is that forecast for Detroit or is it for Fantasy Land? Holy shit. Does he not realize we're on the cold side of a strong upper level low? There are air temps in SW Michigan in the upper 50s right now! That cool air is seep...

Re: Trump Booed at Libertarian National Convention

Some dude named Chase Oliver received the nomination.

I've found only very little information regarding his professional and educational background.

I do agree with some of his political positions and disagree with others.

107.3 uses voicetracking (an entire shift can be recorded in less than an hour) and syndicated programming for all dayparts.

Chicago's western suburbs get a Classic Alternative station

WERV - 95.9 The River in Aurora - has flipped to Classic Alternative. I've heard material from the mid 80s to mid 00s so far. A very good mix.

I didn't see this one coming!

Re: Trump Booed at Libertarian National Convention

I agree multiple life sentences with no possibility of parole is excessively harsh. That being said, he was the mastermind of a criminal enterprise used by drug traffickers, so it's hard for me to have much sympathy for his fate.

Re: Trump Booed at Libertarian National Convention

One of the most important issues for LP activists is for the next President to pardon some scumbag who created a website in order to facilitate trafficking of narcotics and criminal activities. I would say "unbelievable," but frankly, I am not surprised. https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/25/politics/liber...

Re: Trump Booed at Libertarian National Convention

The audio on the link you posted sucks. Crowd noise is muffled. The audio on the link MCRF posted is crystal clear, and it is obvious many in the crowd were very displeased with some of Trump's remarks. Nothing "hacky" at all about it. I will say hardcore LP activists likely have just as many screws...

Re: WADL Deal Pulled

Per RabbitEars.info, 6.1, 53.1 and 53.2 in Lansing all broadcast their audio in DD5.1 despite all three channels (CBS, ABC and CW, respectively) sharing a single physical RF channel (channel 14).

The situation you describe is the result of telecasters refusing to implement the proper technology.

Re: Nielsen audio AQH shares for April

94.5 is a half point ahead of 105.3. 94.5 plays a ton of music heard nowhere else on the FM dial in the Grand Rapids area. 105.3 shares a lot of music with 95.7 and 104.5. Those who enjoy current Top 40 hits and are under the age of 35 primarily obtain their music from sources other than FM radio. T...

Nielsen audio AQH shares for April

Monster book for WCSG; perhaps their biggest ever! Blunder 107.3 and Mix 95.7 reached new all-time lows. How does a monster signal near the middle of the dial with (supposedly) mass appeal pop music earn only a 2.3? It's time to either flip it to country or to restore the heritage W-Lite brand. It t...

Re: I'm with Nikki Haley

Craig's take on 2024 is succinct and well put. For the exact reason he stated, I intend to vote for Biden. I will not entirely rule out voting for a third party candidate (it will not be RFK, Jr.).

Trajan Langdon to be hired as Pistons new POBO

Langdon comes from the Pelicans. His hire reportedly will become official next week. I hope he throws Weaver out on his ass. By the way, it's nice to see Rod Beard writing about the Pistons for The Detroit News again. I don't know if this is a one-off article or if he's returning to the Pistons beat...
