If Faux 2 is making up news stories on slow news weekends, then roop is the perfect fit for them. He was notorious for that when he was at 25 in Saginaw. As some familiar with...

This meant the focus shifted in the direction of WGPR-TV which also had some signal issues. It was actually Channel 20 and Channel 38 that CBS was negotiating...

Actually, they might have switched to 19 to reflect the parent station's original analog channel, which was on Channel 19 in Toronto. But that's just a guess on my part.

CBS closed on the purchase of 62 months later, as correctly pointed out by CircleWXYZ, because Joel Ferguson challenged the sale to keep an important local voice and minority program going and hoped he'd be able to buy it or at least become a partner. But even as the challenge process was playing o...

You're correct that WGPR stood for "Where's God's Presence Radiates". But that slogan evolved, or so I've read, from 107.5's original location in Grosse Pointe. WGPR-FM originally stood for "Grosse Pointe Radio".

Another private equity firm wants to get into an industry that they know NOTHING about. I cannot blame Meredith for grabbing a $2-billion carrot. But there's only one outcome, especially if the heads of private equity firms are children of or devotees of Gordon Gekko's philosophies. They'll trim as ...

Graham Wellingham asked: "What's up with this place?" I can sum it up in three words: NEXSTAR MEDIA GROUP. Perry Sook and company follow a pattern that, unfortunately, has become all too common in the industry. They have stars in their eyes about becoming media moguls. They buy up or merge with com...

RingtailedFox is correct about CBS pursuing WADL for an affiliation agreement. I believe compensation was only one issue that drove CBS away from 38. I believe (I don't know for certain) I did hear CBS also wanted a commitment to creating a news department from the get-go. That was something Adell j...

As terrible as Palin is, I would have much rather had John McCain these last eight years than the disaster that is Barack Obama. http://www.greenchilisage.com/content/uploads/2015/09/Facebook-shot.jpg Sorry you're having such a struggle with simple things as facts. Those include Dumbya's going to w...
