Scripps has slowly ruined this station. Wouldn’t mind ABC taking back ownership and fixing this train wreck.
Agreed!!! Unfortunately, I think Scripps will not be unloading WXYZ anytime soon. Scripps generally wrecks the stations it purchases, although there are some noteworthy exceptions.

I will be curious to see how the locals handle the R convention next week. We need to see how they handle it before passing judgement.
I turned on the 6am hour to see how they found the poor fireman who died.

Kept the TV on while making breakfast. ABC is going wall to wall-- Trump is evil and a liar who lies to all of us and can't be trusted and is trying to kill his sisters. Then straight into how Biden and Harris are reasoned and perfect.

It was really bad. Like it must have been watching TV in the Soviet Union or Cuba, just garbage propaganda

I also see no mention on 7's website about a riot in downtown Detroit last night, strange!

Seems like I've noticed a lot recently where they will lead a Trump quote or statement with "unfounded"or "baseless"but don't do the same to similar statements by Pelosi or Schumer

Because they are at least half true. Meaning there is a basis and they weren’t simply invented in a room somewhere and repeated by naive people. Much of what Trump says doesn’t rely on any experts or academics or officials of any kind. It’s just him saying it.

“I’m smarter than the generals”.. says him... prove it.

“Mail in voting is full of fraud but absentee voting isn’t”.. says him... prove it.

“I don’t know.. (insert indicted person here)”... says him... despite pictures of him with the person.

We could do this all week with literally thousands of statements. He’s a fraud. Pelosi and Schumer do not engage in this level of deception. You can’t simply apply the same standard to people doing different things. He needs a disclaimer because literally everything he says needs to be checked first. They engage in traditional political rhetoric. Two different animals.

The latest LIE is Trump is trying to influence the election by picking up Mailboxes and not funding the USPS. How is that genius. ??
No it’s fact. He’s even said that’s why.

Any of a dozen times he’s talked about mail in voting hurting his chances and how bad it will be. Use the Google machine.

300 votes were recorded in one polling place in Detroit, with 50 voters. Over 3,000 too many votes for Hillary, and that was with checking voter IDs and real absentee, serial number, ballots. What will your side do with free and untraceable mail in ballots?

The mail in ballots are the same as the absentee ballots. All the state of Michigan did was mail every registered voter a form to request an absentee ballot. If they send it in they get an absentee ballot. If they are like the yahoos from somewhere around here and burn it? They can take their chances in person I suppose.

The rub is that mail in ballots and absentee ballots are the same thing. They aren’t “untraceable” but voting is always free.

Just now 72% of Detroit absentee ballot polls were off, not in the books, and counted anyway. That was in the primary.
