Ah, did not realize they had to pay licensing fees for that brand name.

If that is indeed the case, I agree completely that's the reason it was tossed aside.

I agree with you - we should all vote for Biden if it must be one of those three. Good post!

RFK will simply splinter the conspiracy voter, and we all know who owns the conspiracy vote.

100% right.

Is quality job one at Ford?

I love it! Thanks for the chuckle.

There was nothing wrong with "Action News."

"7 News" does sound cleaner than "7 News Detroit "

"7News Detroit" sounds sterile and generic to me.

One can bypass Chicago itself (though not northwest Indiana and the south suburbs which can also have bad traffic) by taking I-80 to I-39 and 39 up to 90, which then runs back into 94 in Wisconsin. Longer route but 39 is a much more relaxing drive than the Tri-State or the Dan Ryan/Kennedy/Edens co...

And it's positioned sideways to boot! Yeah, no thanks.

The setup 62 uses, after some tweaks that took time to implement, works well. (Initially, I was not a fan.)

These massive videos walls - when used to present the news or weather - do not look good at all and is a trend that needs to die.

Saw some weathercasts on 4 this morning. The graphics on that diagonally positioned monitor look truly AWFUL! There is a ton of light glare, and the color contrast and sharpness of the weather maps is totally piss poor. Do directors / producers / whomever not think this shit through before going to ...

Dayton, OH is stuck in the late 1980s, so that all makes sense.

You are indeed correct. The residency requirement only applies at time of election. There is no state residency requirement that applies during the actual term of office.

Well put.

Perhaps Perry Sook is delusional. Has he seen his network's ratings? I think his negotiating leverage is less than he realizes.

Looks a lot like the old one based on what I saw this morning. A ton of bright blue, bright silver and spansive video walls.

He is capable of doing some very good stuff, but I agree that the promos featuring his "happy" voice are creepy.
