BMW: Feel free to post other topics. Seems the only thing you like to contribute lately is criticism of me.

Sinclair announced it is expanding its little watched Tennis Channel internationally. https://tvnewscheck.com/more-news/programming/article/sinclair-launches-tennis-channel-in-uk-as-streaming-service/?utm_source=Listrak&utm_medium=Email&utm_term=Sinclair+Launches+Tennis+Channel+In+UK+As+Streaming+Se...

It’s amazing to me that soooo many posters here are so concerned with one poster and our disagreements with a billion dollar broadcaster. But you don’t have the same concern about how that same broadcaster treats its employees or how it airs one-sided must-run stories or its lack of minority represe...

KM: It’s not about me. This post is about Tigers’ suspended broadcaster Jack Morris. If you want to support his comments, feel free to do so. I say they were clearly out of bounds and he deserves a harsher punishment than the slap on the wrist that Sinclair/Bally Sports Detroit gave him. If you feel...

The first and ultimate defense for libel is that it is the truth or fair comment (also satire). Plus they’d have to be able to prove who I am. Then my lawyers would have Sinclair and 25-66 have to open their books in open court to discuss their policies on low pay, lack of minority representation, h...

No I have not made a derogatory joke, racial impersonation, or off colored joke. I don’t find making fun of minorities or women funny. If you do, that’s your issue, not mine. It’s also why I’ve not been fired from my job or sent to sensitivity training like Jack. It’s also why I live a very happy li...

Do better journalism = higher ratings = higher revenue = higher profits = higher salaries = happier employees. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Matt: you seem to have lots of questions and very few ideas. Time to get off the pot and do something more than criticize. Otherwise find another poster to troll.

BMW: Examples were in the link MasterB: I don’t know… how about Jack not doing “cartoonish voices” which he’s clearly not skilled at… and do the job he was hired to do… provide color commentary of baseball. If you have to explain the joke, it probably wasn’t funny… and in Jack’s case was probably ra...

If all you’re ever fed is sugar water, you can’t appreciate a good whiskey. Give viewers a better alternative than what local news provides and we’ll find an audience. Just look at what Flint Beat is doing to local newspapers. They frequently have outmaneuvered M-Live in its coverage of local govern...

BMW: Last time I checked, Bally Sports Detroit is broadcast on local cable stations. Bit not on all streaming services thanks to a pissing match. His comments and subsequent suspension were also covered by all three stations. Seems to me to be fair comment on a forum about Michigan TV and radio stat...

No one believes Morris will take “sensitivity training” seriously. The move by Sinclair/Bally Sports Detroit is just a PR move to see if a few days off the whole episode will die down. If Sinclair actually believed in promoting a diverse and professional workplace, they would have fired Morris when ...

One of the worst color guys in Major League Baseball —Jack Morris — is sidelined by Sinclair’s Bally Sports Detroit after an apparently racist comment aired during last night’s Tigers telecast. https://www.freep.com/story/sports/mlb/2021/08/18/jack-morris-shohei-ohtani-comment-suspended/8184804002/ ...

Matt, sounds like we agree on a lot of things… just not the big one. You think local journalism is dead. I believe it’s worth fighting for. Local TV station managers may chase after the almighty dollar. I believe putting on a better news product is the only way to get back the ratings we’ve pissed a...

TC: Matt and the 25-66 managers have the same personality disorder… they think they are the smartest people in the room and don’t have to consider other perspectives. They talk down to us, instead of understanding their perspective is only one way to look at the current situation. If Matt snd the 25...

First, pointing out facts and advocating for change isn’t whining. You’d have to ask 25-66 managers if my posts make a difference. I’m not invited to the behind the door gatherings that discuss our posts on the Buzzboard. From my perspective, the posts haven’t resulted in the mass firings of the new...
