Re: Lazlo

Brady just gave a backhanded mention on the air to this web site. :) I have no beef with his on air work; I've complimented him in the past, in fact. It's other aspects of the station that suck. Localism in other dayparts is sorely lacking, and some of the music decisions remain questionable. You gu...

Re: FBI raiding treasonists home

One final thought for now -
I suspect someone from Trump's Secret Service team knew he took the documents, knew where they were stored, and informed the FBI and/or the AG's Office.

Does anyone know for sure if documents of the type in question were actually seized during the raid?

Re: FBI raiding treasonists home

Embezzling top secret nuclear documents is a very serious offense, if true, and makes anything Hunter Biden did (tax non-compliance, not registering as a foreign lobbyist, not disclosing drug addiction on a firearms purchase application)seem pale in comparison. Bryce, I would contend investigating p...

Re: Detroit Tigers 2022

Spot on. I do not trust Chris Ilitch. I liked how Ilitch shirked any responsibility for the Tigers' performance and personnel moves and pinned all the blame on Avila. I realize Ilitch was answering random questions from reporters and had to think on his feet during the hastily arranged press confere...

Re: People in Washtenaw County love WUOM

I liked how 96.3 sounded when Robby Bridges was PD. Ron Harrell by far had the station sounding its best, though. Gosh, that had to have been a decade ago. Station sounds too much like 95.5-lite these days. Morning show went downhill when they started doing Mojo-like bits and segments. I thought Mr....

Re: Stock Market White Knuckle Ride

I-Series treasury bonds are a good idea for those looking to invest $10,000 or less. A Detroit Free Press business columnist has written some informative articles regarding this product recently. I've been very cautious in my investing over the past six months. Too much macroeconomic and geo-politic...

Re: Detroit Tigers 2022

LOL.

Ironically, within the last 15 minutes, the Freep and Detroit News posted stories prominently on their home pages.

Re: Detroit Tigers 2022

I love how the Freep and The Detroit News have completely buried this story on their respective mobile friendly web sites. Puff pieces get top billing regularly. Hard news, though, gets buried.

Each paper's Sports Editor is a joke.

Re: Detroit Tigers 2022

I'm pleasantly surprised.

It was the right move for sure.

Mr. Avila seems like a very decent man; I have no personal animus toward him and wish him well.

The timing is interesting. Did Ilitch get an earful from Lou Whitaker number retirement ceremony attendees?

I've not downloaded any of the local stations' weather apps. Sounds like I've made a wise decision!

Re: People in Washtenaw County love WUOM

I largely agree. I think a Fake W4 would go over worse than Fake Wheels.

93.1's issue isn't its name, it's the programming. The new afternoon jock is not a good fit for a Detroit country station. They should move him to 96.3 and bring Dave Fuller back to 93.1.

Re: No more 4-Zone Weather on WDIV!

4-Zone started when Ben Bailey was there. Cannot recall if it was his idea or not.

No 4-Zone usage during the forecasts this morning. (Some of the weather graphics used today still had the old icon in the upper left hand corner, though. Someone probably forgot to change that.)

Re: WXYZ leads with fake weather news at 5PM

I hear you loudly and clearly, but I try to call strikes & balls. I called it "fake" because the alarmist reporting on your station's part was completely unnecessary and untruthful. It was the TV equivalent of misleading click bait.
