I watched the 10pm news last night for the first time in months….I wasn’t impressed. The first 20 minutes were stories from the neighborhoods that few people even those living in the neighborhood would care about. The second half-hour were news features from various news services. The weather, while...

Sister station WILX in Lansing is also broadcasting the tournament.

Early history article….I remember visiting WKAR in the old studios with sets for Land of Play and others.

OK, so where is he going?

Alabama

Chris Easlick was promoted to chief meterologist at WNEM.

I watched a newscast on 47 today for the first time since their awful launch at the beginning of 2021. Back then it was an embarrassingly bad newscast. What I saw was a great improvement. Gone is the anchorless news which was a horrible decision which fortunately they corrected. While weather is sti...

Seth Wells is moving back to WILX from WOOD as a morning weekday anchor beginning December 6th.

The translator on 105.1 will be moving to 102.3 at noon on Wednesday. This will be the second move. Looks like more changes in store in the future.

Mallory Anderson’s last day was today. After 4 years at WILX she is moving to KRDO in Colorado Springs. David Andrews will move to mornings until a replacement is hired.

With Emily gone to Chicago, WILX has promoted Darrin Rockcole and hired a 4th meteorologist. While there has been no announcement, Blake Hansen is my guess. He left 7 & 4 today saying he wouldn’t be moving very far away. His twitter posts are being liked by Justin Bradford.

The day before Emily was supposed to start -- she got an offer somewhere else out of state and told Wilx she was leaving. Whole plan blew up on them. A year getting paid to do nothing at WILX completely worthless. So, back to Darrin whose retirement happened before Emily was even in the picture. Lo...

Beginning on Monday… Are you sure? Obviously, things have recently changed. Darrin said a couple weeks ago he would be splitting weekends and the 11am news. He announced he would be taking over mornings next week this am. They also had an ad campaign for Emily joining on the air beginning today air...

I enjoy viewing Mallory Anderson in the mornings but I do miss Claire Cameron. I thought that Emily Wahls would become a weathercaster. Where is she?

Beginning on Monday…

Just noticed WSYM has added news anchors…to no one’s surprise the anchorless experiment was a disaster.
