Wnem5 and Abc12 is nothing more than fill in one-sided news

This is a bad thing?

She is/was an absolutely horrible anchor. If she ever gets another TV broadcast job, it should be as a reporter only as she can at edit out all of her verbal miscues.

Per her IG, she's running for state rep.


What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

OMG - she’s running as a Democrat. I’m a strong Democrat and I wouldn’t even vote for her in the primary….

Interesting to see Byron Allen has a station nobody wants to work at.

One of their former employees posted somewhere that their benefits got cut. Not sure to what extent, but it would explain the revolving door. Not a smart move on top of their well known bad management.

Byron Allen owns the weather Channel, social media says paid 70 million for ABC12, and cuts benefits. What a joke. Stations news looks like public access.

Byron Allen is a cheapskate I see Allen Media isn't a great place to work.

This is why he cut benefits, and refuses to match 401K contributions. https://www.dirt.com/gallery/moguls/pow ... 203466021/

Seriously? The entitlement is coming from YOU.

Put yourself in their shoes and if your employer did this to you. Your co pay for all your Health benefits doubles or triples. The measly 4% that they give you to for your 401(k) is gone. Do you truly think that potential new employees would go there or younger employees would stay there long before looking for another job?

If the pay and benefits you offer aren’t worth a 💩💩💩, then you’re not going to attract competent job applicants. Unfortunately too many businesses don’t get that.
