Re: Sinclair called out
As I said on another post in another forum: The writing is on the wall, and the smart ones are getting out now. "Kids" (whatever that is....under 35?) just ain't watching local news on local stations. They are barely watching the local stations. You can't run a news department running Medicare Advan...

Re: FM power in different areas
Are there advantages or disadvantages between height and lower power vs. lower height and higher power? Height trumps power virtually every time. By having more antenna height, you create a larger area of line of sight, and that is, for the most part, what determines coverage. Free space path atten...

Re: NBC 24 Ending News Operations
I've been told repeatedly by millennials and younger that 'cable' is not of interest to them, and I assume much less is OTA TV. I even got into a rather pointless discussion with a young friend who decried the need for cable since "we just stream over wifi". She was not able to understand that her "...

Re: Northville Skateboard Park
I don't have a problem with the park being 'launched in his memory' as the story states, but I do have a serious problem with him being forever and officially memorialized. He is not one of the people that stormed the cockpit of Flight 93 on 9/11 and saved a lot of lives on the ground. He's not a Co...

Re: Hampton Inn
Wow.
Two pages of discussion based upon the alleged remarks of a minimally paid front desk attendant who seems to have been elevated here to the role of CIO of Hilton/Hampton and assumed to be speaking for the chain.
Slow news week. Waste of time.

Re: Yet again, MW
Amazing how much 1 person can troll and disrupt an online community. Waaaalllll.............. Yes. It is amazing. But many non-identity-changing people go out of their way to be obtuse, mean-spirited, disrespectful, and offensive. In retrospect, I've made a few remarks I'm not particularly proud of...

Re: Banning Non-Competes
Although relative to this message board, non-competes certainly do not affect only broadcast employees. They are everywhere, especially wherever there is a long training process, and sensitive customer-based information is involved. I see the need from the perspective of an employer, but I'm not sur...

Re: Tipping question
$5 is plenty for an $18 tab especially for cash. I was wondering if anyone would make that point...thanks, Freak. Cash tipping improves the value of the tip substantially....the house may hold some back to allegedly share with the back staff, they may (and probably do) report W2 income on it (which...

Re: Just What Late Night TV Needs...
Carson understood the purpose of late night TV. He kept it light, gave his audience a good laugh and helped people unwind at the end of the day. Johnny was like that glass of wine to relax and take the edge off. Letterman and Leno learned from his example and followed the formula. Modern late night...

Re: Which mobile phone MVNOs (mobile virtual network operators) are best?
AT&T is a horrible, truly rotten company when it comes to customer service as well as some of their technology. I will never do business with them. I agree with the general idea, perhaps a little less vociferously, but in many places, the coverage is better. I live in the sticks most of the year, a...
