Re: WOOD-TV8 staff push back on internal memo to tone down Pride Month coverage

If “the other side" means countering the drivel that "we're not treated special enough" by the LGBTQ community, then it's also a pretty valid memo. It may be nothing to do with hate and discrimination, although that's always the first horse that some people jump on and run with. Jesus. Fucking. Chr...

Re: WOOD-TV8 staff push back on internal memo to tone down Pride Month coverage

I thought Michele DeSelms summed it up very well on Twitter. She wrote that the mandate within the memo was “essentially requiring us to give equal time to hate and discrimination”.

Re: September Ratings

If I’ve learned anything from Greg it’s that WBCT plays “modern country hits”. Great insight.

Re: Emily Schuitema Leaving WOOD TV Weather Team

The number of younger TV talent that have chosen to exit lately is very eye-opening. There’s no more “carrot at the end of the stick” and they all seem to be coming to that conclusion. It’s no longer appealing to work odd hours for years and years just so you’re able to…work odd hours once you’ve re...

Somehow you always seem to turn the stale “dying industry” talk into a conversation about YOU. Well done. In all seriousness, I greatly re...
