So WDIV has two of the most unlikeable guys in media:
Bernie and Jason Carr
And several medium unlikeable people.

We've had some good people retire as of late, Davey Lew, Huel and Monica, Paul Gross, Jim Kiertzner, anyone else?
When is this guy in the subject line retiring? This guy is just sucking up that paycheck, with no value-add. Still stuck in the early 90's, the only thing I can figure is he's got compromising pictures of someone in management.

I don't think anyone has to leave if they don't want to. There's a couple on your list that probably should of bid farewell a few years earlier than they did. Seems all 3 stations let folks past their prime if they want.


Life is not a dress rehearsal. This is it. There's no going back, and we can only go forward before we run out of runway.

The only exception to that is the mass exodus that 7 had from 2009-2012. There were a number of cost-cutting disposals of legacy talent from the ABC days in there. The execution was so bad and the replacement talent was so subpar they spent a decade or so in the wilderness. What they put out now is the best it’s been in a long time.

Legacy.
Is that a kind word for someone that had been around too long?

Usually it’s a word for folks who had been around before a business changed owners.

Bernie was already phoning it in 15 years ago. I cannot believe he's still there all the time.
