Softball Questions

25-66’s In Over Her Head News Director likes to think she is a hard-hitting journalist. That’s why she micromanages the news team and complains about them behind their backs.

The proof that this Master’s Degree, cartwheel turning “journalist” doesn’t know what she’s doing? Look at the hard hitting interview she did with Senator Gary Peters this summer:

The softest of softball questions. No challenging of his record during a pandemic and major election. In fact, all of her questions came from press releases sent out by Peters’ campaign/Senate PR office.

Well, when she is eventually fired for incompetence, maybe Neille can apply to Sen. Peters’ communications staff...

I thought ND's stay behind the camera not in front of the camera seems like local media just does softball questions for the politicians would rather make them local celebrities. I Hope that 25-66 was fair to John James if he did any interviews with the TV station this summer or fall.

Master: 25-66 did interview John James the few times he visited the Flint/Saginaw areas. But it was hardly equal coverage. In my observation, 5 and 12 made an effort to balance the coverage... whenever they interviewed one candidate, they sought out the other one for balance. 25-66’s In Over Her Head News Director just allowed us to be “used” by the campaigns whenever they had a story they wanted to get out. The lack of planning and organization during the months leading up to the election was pathetic... the worst in several election cycles... and it was all due to Neille-Ann’s incompetence.
