Clio NOT Cleo
ABC 12 News made a mistake. The reporter said "Cleo" NOT Clio, MI in the Rest Area on I-75. https://www.abc12.com/news/top-stories/ ... a482d.html
Re: Clio NOT Cleo
That’s a far too common problem at all the stations. You see it with new anchors, reporters, sports, even weather. It’s because you have a news director who isn’t from the area and doesn’t spend the time coaching his new hires. You’d think someone like a highly paid anchor like Angie might actually step up and help out the new reporters…

Re: Clio NOT Cleo
Maybe those anchors could just make a list...I'm guessing they did but it was ignored! Sinklair probably could been part of the solution, but he probably thinks that's not his job. Angie and the "new hire" seem like they were recorded at different times:
Au Gres aw-GRAY
Au Sable aw-SAHB-L
Caro Care-oh
Clio KLY-oh
Capac KAY-pack
Chesaning CHESS-a-ning
Grand Blanc Grand Blank
Deford DEE-ford

Imlay City Em-lay City
Iosco eye-AH-skoh

Audio: great list.
But it isn’t my job since I’m no longer in the ‘biz.
But good for you for being part of the solution! This industry needs more people like you in it.

I thought you were still in the biz, my apologies.

Re: Clio NOT Cleo
In the days where there were regional movie distributions of "B" Grade material such as "Toklat," a 1971 nature flick (Man and Grizzly), the small town theatre circuit would buy TV time and Yes, you were quite certain of hearing CLEE-oh, or Oh-SKA-dah for Oscoda.
