WFDF broadcasts at 910 kHz, not 930.

Re: Solar Eclipse April 8th

Amazingly good weather across the vast majority of the path of totality in the USA. Even northern Maine had mostly sunny skies and temps near 60. Portions of south Texas and upstate New York had the highest percentage of cloud cover. I wish I would've traveled to Northern Ohio to see totality. It di...

Re: Boeing Max jets are unsafe flying shit boxes...

A Denver originating Southwest Airlines flight, a Boeing 737-800, had one of its engine covers rip away mid-flight.

Re: Beyonce and Country Music Part 2

Why should radio airplay be given greater weighting than digital downloads, streaming, etc. ?

Seems to me Billboard is the most balanced method of determining a current single's popularity.

I do wish to thank Reese for revisiting this topic; his OP for this thread was an excellent one.

Re: Detroit Tigers 2024

The Tigers stink. The early winning streak was fool's gold.

This is a .500 ball club at best as currently structured.

Re: Marjorie Taylor Greene tells us to repent

Please have respect for the rest of them...
I absolutely would show respect to those who are decent people. MTG fails to qualify for such courtesy on my part.

I'd love to know if her parents hold similar viewpoints on current affairs & act in a similarly obnoxious manner.

WZZM definitely pandering to southern portion of DMA

On wzzm13.com this morning, of the first 7 or 8 stories I perused: - Story receiving the second highest billing is from Cass County (not even in the DMA! South Bend serves that county) - Headline from Battle Creek - Headline from Kalamazoo I wonder if 13 would ever consider leasing a subchannel on, ...

Re: WLAJ Playing Atlanta News?

That's really bizarre. WSB-TV isn't even owned by Mission or Nexstar, it's owned by Cox Media Group.

This reminds me of the Nexstar fiasco that occurred during the NFC title game on some of its stations, including WOOD-TV in GR.

Re: WBKB Partners with UpNorthLive

Marquette's likely next. ABC 10's newscasts are the weakest of the four TV news operations there. Some of the on-air talent is indescribably bad. The fact Marquette now has 4 separately run TV newsrooms is crazy to begin with. For years, TV 6 was the only choice (channel 3 would simulcast WFRV's new...

Re: WADL to be sold to Nexstar (through Mission Broadcasting)

So, essentially, the FCC's ruling means Nexstar and Mission's stations are now viewed on a combined basis in terms of ownership cap compliance, and on that basis, they are currently in breach. If WPIX does indeed get divested (to someone other than Nexstar), I wonder how much wiggle room that create...

Re: WBKB Partners with UpNorthLive

That's true. Of course, the Sinclair-owned dumpster fire in Clio barely has a news department of its own at this juncture, so an arrangement with WEYI would not have been feasible for WBKB.

Re: Detroit Tigers 2024

Another close one - and Tigers emerge victorious. :) Interesting use of pitching by Hinch, necessitated, of course, by yesterday's double header. Lange was brought in to get the very final out in the 9th. Go ahead run was scored in the bottom of the 8th. Shitty outing for Baez, who was 0-4. He flew ...
