Re: New Downtown TV5 Studio
Do you really expect WNEM to do anything with that studio in Flint? The broadcasts from there were atrocious and a nightmare for Master Control. The split anchors was an experiment that should never have been repeated. Not to mention that the closed captioning was on a delay when it actually worked.

Hopefully, she went somewhere to fine tune her reporting skills.

WNEM's We Love Mid-Michigan Promo
WNEM has a new promo out about how their anchors love Mid-Michigan. In that promo, you will see Meteorologist Chris Easlick mentioning about loving local teams. Shouldn't a sports anchor mention that line or did Gray finally realize Scot and Jason were no longer necessary?

Re: National Desk PM
I'm guessing this is in reference to WEYI &WSMH anchor, Dave Bondy. Yes, what was a once promising fresh breath of air, has become a Sinclair corporate shill. I am guessing he was asked to adapt the narrative as his spin recently has been full of the same Sinclair propaganda being pushed through. Ta...

Re: 25-66 impacted by Sinclair ransomware attack
It's never a good sign when syndicators are being told that there is no timetable on when programs will return to the airwaves. It gets even more embarrassing by the day.

Re: 25-66 impacted by Sinclair ransomware attack
Rumor has it that WNEM and WJRT have been approached by the Ellen syndicators of finishing out the season because they are getting fed up about the show not airing the past 2 weeks and during sweeps. They feel Sinclair is in breach of their contract.

Re: 25-66 impacted by Sinclair ransomware attack
Thanks to this catastrophe, WNEM is no longer the laughing stock of the market. Plus, it did take the heat off the dismissal of Frank Turner.

If Kelly and Ryan is airing on WJRT, someone needs to notify Master Control to record the show.

Re: Colette Pulling A Beyonce
That's Ms. Colette Stinger to you. And, now you are going to add to the ego by comparing her to Beyonce. Those segments were taped at various times. No one cares about that hour, so it's basically just throw everything together and rehash the same news cycle. The sheriff Zooms were taped all at once...

Re: Dave Bondy looking desperate
I don't think Dave Bondy ever complained about needing a newer laptop because it clashed with his style at the anchor desk either.

Re: Custer Hair Salon
It is quite interesting to see someone "behind the scenes" defend David Custer. Most would tell you that they would prefer to have Katie O' Mara back.

Re: Why viewers no longer trust the media
How about this gem that must have been forced on all of the Sinclair affiliates? Even Dave Bondy risked his credibility and posted it. https://nbc25news.com/newsletter-daily/ ... hinese-lab

Re: Gray TV buys Meredith TV group
WNEM employees should be the worried ones. They are way more expendable than WJRT's employees. Custer's conflicts of interest won't fly under the Gray management radar.

Re: WNEM up for sale?
Ian Rubin left WNEM because he thought the "Coverage You Could Count On" could never compete after WEYI revamped their news product. Boy, was he wrong!!
