Yes, because people typically go from Detroit to fucking Flint...

Stink, you really need to get out of your Flint box.

Brad posted a team picture without JR in it. I think that speaks volumes. I never liked him much on air but he sounds like a real piece of work from what I hear. Clearly he can't come in to help during severe weather, either. Wnem is being handed the market on a silver platter. Firing JR and Denise would be a great rip the band aid off situation and just start rebuilding.

To me JR reeks arrogance. Andrew would have been perfect for Chief Meteorologist at CBS 62. I doubt he would want to go to ABC 12 and slum it with Matt and Angie.

I read somewhere CBS62 isn’t going to have a chief.

I worked with a lot of fine people at 12. JR is not one of them. He's a pompous pissant.

Now, there's an example of a Detroit market alum who actually deserves to be working in a much smaller market. She is someone whose voice I will never miss hearing.
I saw this the other day and meant to post something similar. I think Flint might be a little too big for her "talent."

To the WREX TV , Rockford, ILL meteorologists who do the local weather lol, for ABC 12, because the world would end if JR had to work a weekend, it's pronounced My OH, not. Mee o, spelled Mio. Finally, it's Caseville , not Cassville.

OH. MY. GOD.

While I’d heard of the name Ronnie Dahl, I’d never seen her or her work. Just watched a live report from her on ABC12. Voice drives me nuts, along with her speaking style. She sounds like a goofball on the air. She interviewed some nut job woman about the election who ended up making Ronnie sound decent (as hard as that sounds).

What a horrible hire. ABC12’s reporters and recent hire sports team are bringing their newscasts way down.
