I think, but I am not 100% sure. I would have to reference Dick Osgood’s Wxyie Wonderland book.
It ran from 1933-1954 according to a piece that ran on Michigan Radio today.

Re: Turn DOWN your thermostat! Really?!
No, the lawyers aren’t drooling...it’s the accountants. DTE can charge significantly more per kWh providing power to the grid (that goes to “the market”) than directly to their customers in their primary service area. So, if we use less, that “saved power” is put on the grid and sold for more. It’s ...

Re: Crooked Detroit news media give preferential treatment to DMC?
Border: I get it. My point in the second half of my post was the Metro Detroit region. For example, if those reporters from The Detroit Free Press (M.L. Elrick & Jim Schaefer) were covering say the best Coney restaurants in town, instead of investigating Kwame Kilpatrick, what media outlet would hav...

Re: Crooked Detroit news media give preferential treatment to DMC?
I've not heard or seen squat from either 2, 4, 7 or WWJ. Did station management tie news department staffers' hands here? After all, DMC is or has been a major advertiser on all of the above stations over the years . The lack of local media coverage on this matter is stunning, and reminds me of how...

Re: Snowmageddon?
Was anyone NOT predicting today's ending of the world, or did all the forecasters fall in line to scare the crap out of every school and county office and wet the lips of every lawyer? I use the NWS/NOAA website. I like it. It’s straightforward. No ads. It’s usually pretty accurate. They forecasted...

Me TV Detroit bug
Channel flipping this afternoon and noticed along-side the MeTV bug in the lower right-hand corner of the screen, is the Local 4 bug. Wonder if this is new marketing or an oversight. The Local 4 logo does not disappear during commercials. Also, its intensity is not dimmed during a show. Happy Snow d...

Wings and coaching
Aside from the underdeveloped talent coming up from the Griffs to take the place of injured players, the Wings aren’t totally el sucko. The latest losses have been 1-goal games, not blowouts. What is irritating the hell out of me is the coaching. Jeff Blashill is a good guy. He really means well. He...

My wife thinks Dave LewAllen is hot-hot-hot. She met him in person and said he was a hunk. She said tv doesn’t do him justice. She is a good judge of hotness.

Re: Are most sound engineers half deaf?
Just for shits and grins, I threw one of my daughter’s pop music files on the ProTools just to see the waveform. Ugh. Looks like someone drew a line with a thick magic marker. I would interject that some sound engineers are “told” how to make something sound, like a recording or broadcast signal. Mo...

It’s going to affect WDTW and WMXD on the Cadillac Tower. To what degree and how, I cannot speculate.

Re: 98.7 The Breeze on air line-up
Art Van, if that's the case, and a particular office doesn't want to hear DJs OR ADS, they may as well subscribe (for less than $20/month) to Sirius/XM's "The Bridge!" Radio is meant to be interaction between the host and the listeners, not just weather and traffic. A station with NO personality is...
