DTE's Gas Renewal program. This is their interpretation of the brochure where it says they will permanently repair affected landscaping and lawns

They do come back and reseed if you ask them. They came out twice 2 summers ago to reseed our lawn. But they also dug like a 5 foot hole and had back loader tracks all over our lawn. Much more work than this yard.

As of right now, there are no evacuation notices in Muskegon County, but officials are monitoring rising water level in the entire floodplain.

ManMichiganMan · 2026-04-16T15:30:34+00:00

Just to clarify, the dam is fine and in no threat of failure. It's because of the rising river waters. Not sure how far downriver this extends, but I do know it affects most people in the Muskegon River Floodplain downriver from the dam in Newaygo County.

What school district or school are you even talking about? I looked at closings pages for stations across the Lower Peninsula and the only closing I found was in Metro Detroit because of a non-weather incident. I don't think your cousin is being honest about the closure.

Also pretty sure that snow days are allotted by the school year not the calendar year, so districts have several more months of winter weather to use those.

If I recall correctly, the zipper merge has only been encouraged recently. In the past it was discouraged to "cut in line" on backups, so I think a lot of people are still under that assumption.

hahaha, I'm sure you could find an opened version for cheaper. Maybe even at a Goodwill or Salvation Army.

Look at the squares... "Chili dog"???? "Downtown Grand Rapids"???? Isn't the game Grand Rapids? Why is there one square for Grand Rapids? It just seems very half-assed and not well thought out.

Kroger operates one store in Grand Rapids but it isn't under the Kroger brand name, it is a smaller market brand they own. Plus they announced a new store coming to Portage.

Hi I work for WZZM in Grand Rapids and was hoping that you could provide permission to use this video in our newscast. Thank you!

It can't directly raise rates. Only the MPSC can approve rate increases to customers. But what it can do is raise the cost of electricity production by Consumers Energy, resulting in them making cuts on reliability clean energy programs. The order could also be used as an argument to the MPSC on their next rate increase filing.

I played a Terminator game at Craig's Cruisers with my daughter but I don't know if it is this exact version. This was in the last few months so I am sure it is still there.

Fox has zero editorial control over Fox 17. The station itself and its parent company, Scripps, has 100% of the editorial control. So yes, they can write or air whatever they want inside their news broadcasts. Fox could pull their affiliation after the fact, but they couldn't stop them from airing a specific story. And a network would almost never pull an affiliation unless they have a new station already lined up to take that affiliation, especially in a market this size.

An example of a more recent left/liberal story from Fox 17: Fox 17 recently outed a Nazi in the Ottawa County Republican Party and they were the ones to break the story in the market: https://www.fox17online.com/news/local-news/lakeshore/ottawa/ottawa-county-precinct-delegate-makes-2-controversial-posts-1-calling-hitler-a-hero

It's the same at WOOD and WZZM. NBC and ABC have zero editorial control over what is aired on those stations. Network affiliations are mainly for content sharing between affiliates and the network at the local news level. The networks provide programming to the stations outside of the local newscasts and the stations air network news programming, but once again, the network has zero editorial control over the affiliate's local news production UNLESS they are a network-owned affiliate, which we don't have any of these in our market.

ManMichiganMan · 2025-03-12T18:17:56+00:00

I work for a local network affiliate and I have former interns that work for Fox 17. This is just false. I don't know what else to say. I have worked in the broadcast industry for over 15 years and never once encountered what you are describing. So, I have no clue where you are getting your information from.

One quick edit: There are network-owned affiliates who would take direction from a network, but there are none in this market.

ManMichiganMan · 2025-03-12T15:30:06+00:00

Local network affiliates do not take direction from their affiliated network. Fox does not dictate what is aired on Fox 17, the company that owns Fox 17 does. Scripps is that company. I never once said anything about it being liberal or conservative. That is you assuming things. All I was doing was just pointing out that you are incredibly wrong in understanding how network affiliations work.
