Diana Lewis, a fixture on WXYZ-Channel 7’s evening newscast, will retire in October after 44 years on television, she told Crain’s Tuesday afternoon.
The Detroit ABC affiliate will announce her...

I lived there from December 2008 to last month. Loved it. A few minor incidents, nothing different than living in any other city. Great price, location, etc. Management tolerated no nonsense. A lot...

The M1 group doesn't quite have all its capital funding in place, and that operating subsidy isn't entirely covered yet, either ... just 80 percent of it. There's still a bit of work to be done on...

I lived four years at the Pavilion apartment building in Lafayette Park, and loved it. I moved to a house just north of 8 Mile only recently for convenience reasons and the need for more space....

I just noticed -- and maybe the pic isn't big enough -- but it sure looks like the ship on that tombstone is the Olympic, not the Titanic.

Olympic was the older sister ship her gave her name to...

They're "screwed" only if ownership has a predetermined salary threshold. There is no cap, and the Ilitches have the ability to easily subsidize their sports spending for as long as they choose to do...

The Tigers can absolutely afford Price Fielder. In 2012, his salary simply replaces Ordonez [[$10 million) and Carlos Guillen [[$13 million). There's no real net gain in the bottom line with Fielder....

So then you agree with me. Excellent!

And before some genius tries to go this route: I'm not at all supportive of the police actions like the pepper spray incident at UC-Davis. That was obscene...

Do you dispute anything I wrote, or are you just offering up something that almost, but not quite, reaches the level of a balcony bon mot from Waldorf and Statler of The Muppets?

Ah, something has integrity only if you agree with it? If I'd written a piece of hagiography for HuffPo, you'd be all in favor of it, no?

Nuance? I was there.

I wrote exactly what I saw and...

You do realize that Guy Fawkes was a militant Catholic who was trying to return England to control of pope in Rome, and Fawkes' death [[and foiling of the treasonous Gunpowder Plot) is celebrated each...

The official Facebook page for the Occupy Detroit encampment currently includes a thread debating whether Colo. Gaddafi was a hero and victim of American imperialism, or whether he was a 24-carat...

Just like the U.S. Social Forum was going to change things, and they were doing to stick around Detroit and have a real impact. ;)

It's not entirely a concoction. The bridge is very likely to built by an infrastructure construction consortium from Spain, France, Australia or South Korea [[or their U.S. subsidiaries, using mostly...

I don't think ineptitude of the unions at this game is the issue. Buying access and influence is the problem. Just because labor got very little ROI doesn't make it OK to ignore the fact labor does...

While I am sympathetic to some of the concerns voiced by the Occupy Wall Street crowd, there's either massive hypocrisy at play or massive ignorance when they cry about corporate money in politics...

The Federal Transit Administration has said it doesn't believe DDOT should be handling this. They're providing the funding, and they've expressed skepticism publicly about DDOT's operational funding...

The only building that will be demolished in the rail plans developed by URS is the building next to the Rosa Parks bus center, the one adjacent to the People Mover stop there. I cannot recall the...

I've been covering this project, in its various forms, since at least 2006 or 07 [[my mind is jelly right now from a two-week cold and transit exhaustion).

It was not much of a secret that...

Does that apply only to candidates, or all political advertising -- including PACs, issues groups, etc.?

Another likely reason for the switch: We're about to enter the heavy political season. Likely to get more ears and different ears for a political talk station rather than just use it to simulcast...

URS tells that that MDOT has told them that the bridge at 8 Mile won't support a light rail line, so it has to curve around at street level. And while I don't profess to understand all the reasons or...

I'm doing a free online live chat at 2 p.m. today [[Thursday, July 21) to answers as best I can questions about the Woodward light rail situation.

Thanks.

MY GOD, who let all these apartment-renters into the city?!?! They're not paying property taxes like condo and home owners! They're unfairly being subsidized by the city at the expense of condo...

Again, I see plenty of evidence of the thinking on here that goes, "These guys aren't engineers, so they should just shut up and hand over money. Trust whatever DDOT says and don't deviate from the...
