Re: WWJ suffers one of its worst books of the PPM era
From R-I's ratings historian: WWJ ranked 18th in May in P25-54... so far this year, it's ranked 15th, 17th, 15th, 18th, 18th. Going back to the start of 2021, it has ranked no better than 14th, and no worse than 20th. Newsman123 either was misled or is putting an overly positive spin on the numbers ...

Re: WWJ suffers one of its worst books of the PPM era
People are far from “unhappy” with the lineup. The ratings have been better than they have been in years. I doubt the precipitous drop-off in 6+ is confined to listeners aged 55+. There's no way in hell money demo AQH share is better now than it's been "in years." Also, for as much as 950 plugs its...

Not one story about the Pride Festival on 13's web site, yet everyone is bagging on channel 8.

I'd be surprised if CW programming in Grand Rapids does not move to WXSP.

Re: Pat Sajak retiring
Mr. Gilbert still does a solid job, too, at 94 years of age!
Seacrest is enough to gag me.And the rumor is that Ryan Seacrest is being considered to replace Sajak.

Re: WWJ suffers one of its worst books of the PPM era
I think some (ex?) listeners are unhappy with the current on-air lineup.
Also, we all know how rotten the traffic reports were in afternoon drive for a period of time. The folks who have been covering traffic in afternoon drive for the past month or so have been doing a much better job.

Stellantis releases noxious fumes; Mayor Duggan gets free pass from local media
Mayor Duggan hasn't moved a muscle to advocate for citizens suffering from Chrysler's horrendous paint fume releases. Yet, the local media won't take him to task.
I sure would love to know if any Stellantis execs or the company itself have contributed to hizzoner's prior political campaigns.

Re: MI GOP primary plan favoring party loyalists
It is certainly possible state law precludes the GOP from holding a primary (distinct and separate from the Feb. 27 date) in early March. The state party doesn't want to suffer a massive delegate penalty if it were to award all delegates via a February contest. Really, what's unreasonable here is th...

Re: From FOX News Tonight.
Extremely well stated. I agree that it was worse to have the remark in a network-branded "breaking news alert" chyron as if to suggest it is indisputable fact.
If one of the hot air pundits at FNC had made the remark, I would not be calling for that person's termination.

Re: Lori Bennett out at Cumulus Media
Has Henson *ever* programmed a music-based FM until now?
Seems to me handing him the keys of a venerable station such as WLAV might be a bad idea.

Re: Was Joe Dumars a TERRIBLE GM that got lucky?
Rob Parker wrote some focacta book where Joe Dumars reportedly gave him $5,000 toward publishing costs. Dumars was handed a fine of $500,000 from the NBA front office in 2010 for leaking confidential info to Adrian Wojnarowski. https://www.freep.com/story/sports/nba/pistons/2014/12/17/joe-dumars-nba...
