Re: Mixed Feelings About WJR since their Lineup Change

Zero chance Cumulus dumps news/talk from 760 anytime soon. Would they sell the station for the right price? Sure. Ratings wise, WJR has been a non-factor for a long time. The station has solid relationships with a number of local advertisers nonetheless. Those business owners like the station, so t...

WWJ more than doubles them in the ratings, and they are considered a non factor now. They really need a whole rebrand or format change.
I don't always agree with you, but I certainly agree with this!

Nope, that's a totally different guy than who I'm thinking. Two Richard D's that worked at Honey? Weird.
To borrow a quote from MASH... "Another one of Colonel Flagg's red herrings"

Fixed. Maybe somebody remembers this guy.

Thanks Mega Hertz 👍

Re: Mixed Feelings About WJR since their Lineup Change

Baligian is the only show I listen to on any regular basis. Albom is still horrible, so is Guy Gordon. Paul W. has the same show, just at noontime. Still elitist sounding. Paul W is broadcasting today from a coffee shop in (you're not going to believe it) Center Line. The place is called Gathering ...

Re: "Richard D" from the old WHND, Honeyradio R.I.P

Richard Haase was in the IT department when I was at Greater Media. One of the nicest guys you could ever care to meet. I'm sorry to hear this. You know what? I don't think this is the right guy. This guy's name is Richard D. Burton, according to the obit. But this guy worked at WHND...can someone ...

Somehow I missed this over the summer. A former colleague of mine was just at the estate sale:

Tony Blinken is another weak leader. Someone needs to remind him that he's no Henry Kissinger.

Re: Worn becomes Warren again after electing first female mayor!

I agree with MCRF insofar as a close political allegiance with Fouts given Fouts' antics would disqualify said individual from receiving my vote. The downtown concept that has been pitched going back at least two decades is a pipe dream. Warren should try to follow in the footsteps of Southfield an...

If the choice comes down to Manchin, Biden and Trump, I will vote Manchin without hesitation.
Yep. If Romney is on the ticket with Manchin, whoever is running Goldman Sachs will be president... just like when Bush 43 was in office.

Amen. 💯 I loved it when she called Vivek "scum." So true. If her campaign is active and viable when our primary rolls around, I will almost certainly be casting a vote for her. I've not yet decided if I'll caucus. I have some concerns that she could turn out to be yet another Bush or Romney. Her de...

If Trump does regain the White House next year.... You'll see Liberals from around Detroit being the first ones to jump off the Gordie Howe Bridge.... Most people on the left don't want him!
