Just spin it one of them off as a sidecar. Hell, Sinclair has NBC and Fox, so why not? Similar to Northern MI, where you have two companies running NBC/ABC, and CBS/FOX.

Seems to be 'the cool thing to do' these days...

I barely remember having to witness my great-grandma try to adjust her antenna rotor to get a snowy Fox 33 for Lions games (she lived near Onekama). After the upgrade around 2000, Fox 33 was much easier to get. The clips were from before its short-lived superstation run in the mid 1990s, when it ha...

I vaguely remember the cable signal (channel 2 on TCI Cheboygan) wasn't very stable during severe weather in the early-90s. There were a few times I remember getting a signal out of the Pickford translator, and it was better than Vanderbilt!

What does Black Diamond plan to do with it? Simulcast WGFM? I think BD will keep CFX as is. They left the Northern Star stations mostly alone (was it still Northern Star or had BD taken over when WGFM re-added the simulcast on 95.5?) I believe BD re-added the GFM simulcast on 95.5. However I could ...

Very interesting. I have generally found Lester to seem fairly neutral, but he's still the face of the national news scare tactics. One of the things that took me by surprise was that Tom Brokaw did a pretty good job, with the exception of one or two slips, being neutral for all those years, and th...

Is this station going to get their electronic program guide working?

Would be nice, but doubtful

Who knows anymore. Maybe WAQP, WNEM, and WJRT will take those sub channels.

I thought that was already a done deal.

I haven't listened to the Bear in a long time. Forgot he *was* there.

The news team should have immediately connected you with an engineer immediately to diagnose the problem. And our Master Control operators are supposed to be actively monitoring program audio to make sure audio channels aren’t switched. Supposed to, and actively doing are often two different things.

Used to call in to answer the morning quiz on the way to school. Those were fun times. Back when KHQ was a good station to listen to.

Master: the Sinclair boilerplate contracts are so incredibly one sided. They allow the company to let employees go for any reason, usually with 30-days notice. But I doubt most juries or judges would enforce a non-compete clause if their employment was terminated for no cause. Don't forget, Michiga...

This tells you everything you need to know about Sinclair Broadcasting... https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2021/3/16/sinclair-enforcing-non-competes-after-layoffs It’s bad enough that Sinclair lays off many good people for no other reason than greed... to increase its profit margins. Now it wants ...

Is Kevin still there?
