WXYZ/WMYD in Detroit has hired Rob Parker a Radio/Newspaper columnist... Semi-occasional fill-in Sports anchor at WDIV and contributer to their "Sports Final Edition" show on Sunday nights to anchor sports primarily on "Action News At 10" on WMYD. No doubt he will pop up early and often on Channel 7 as well.... He has been widely lambasted for years for his not so clear delivery and poor TV performance... This on its face would seem to be a very bad hire.

Sources tell me 11Alive is close to getting/naming Demarco's replacement as evening anchor. Jeff Hullinger been the interim evening anchor but also is currently serving as Sports Director after Fred Kalil left for CBS46 last yr. Also note they are not going in house for the replacement, not much in house talent away for an Weeknight Anchor

Don't forget we was fired from ESPN for saying that Robert Griffin III wasn't black enough and calling him a " cornball brother"

The mystery that is KREM continues...yet another unknown theme from them has surfaced, this time from late 1990. If I had to hazard a guess at a timeline, I'd say this may have been picked up in '89 when Eric Johnson left, and was probably dropped for PNP in 1991 (it seems to go with a newsbreak theme I posted quite some time ago, and which was definitely used into '91).

That's hilarious.
