In Reply To: JoeViewer, you gotta get cable, fella. You're missing some of best investigative stuff... * Daron Caldwell investigation led to release of innocent man being framed for murder as the Hart Plaza fireworks shooter... * Detroit Schools investigation showed no school books for students 7 months into the year while officials redecorated their offices and teachers threw lavish sleepover parties at a suburban hotel with money earmarked for students * Eastern MI University investigation documented lavish spending on as new $6 million palace/home for the college president while school classrooms and dorms were falling apart I won't go on...you can still dislike my reporting style, fair enough, but let's not try to tell people "this guy did absultely nothing in Detroit" until recent stories focused on Kwame. As I say--get cable, Dude.
Message: The viewers love ya. Forget about the managers and reporters who are insane with envy at your gonzo popularity. Screw them!!! Most of us can see what's really going on, even if we hate to admit it. I especially liked the list of other current "investigative" reporters. Anyone with a brain can see they spend their research time following orders about what to "look into" for sweeps. Remember the recent sex story that took place in jolly old England? Not one local angle to be found, yet it made it onto the airwaves "Where local news comes first." The other guys/gals you're up against Wilson are ratings driven robots. Channels 2 and 4 don't make an investigative move without managment first invisioning the numbers grabbing power of the promo.
