So maybe a deal could be made to share some of the resources. Bay News 9 reporters seem to have been there forever, too. Maybe CBS/WWJ can offer a digital all-news channel, and use their reporters too, rather than do a cookie cutter news broadcast like the other channels. Local news used to be so much better, and I don't mean Bill Bonds' toupee either.
As a sub channel, e.g Ch. 62.2? Or maybe one of the cable companies could have their own news channel the way Bright House does.
