Are they looking into his decision-making regarding gun issues? He belongs to a pro-gun group. Will he advocate for getting the other side during the next school shooting?

The Point Show on Wood
Can someone tell me what is point of the To The Point show on TV-8? I just watched a bit of it. It was a half hr of people talking about the state budget and not even the final budget just what may happen. I mean it was like cable access.

Re: Old school TV 8 promotional videos from 1984
There's a bit of confusion in some parts of this thread. You have to keep in mind that NBC was in the toilet in the ratings in the late 70s and early 80s so all NBC stations were suffering. This was also a time of innovation, so more live trucks and new ways of presenting news were going to happen, ...

Meijer Goes to Afghanistan as Media Go Missing
What if I told you one of the heirs to the richest fortunes in the area, who also is elected to public office, took a surprise trip to Afghanistan during the chaotic evacuation?

Re: Fox 17 Poaches Wood TV News Director
Bill wasn't in management and didn't have access to strategic marketing research and coverage plans; he was a credentialed professional when he joined ZZM. I guess my view is old-fashioned; personal connections and loyalties matter to me more than a few extra dollars to be earned at the station acro...
