Thread Name: Good News From Detroit -Folks Like Us back on air
Subject: RE: Good News From Detroit -Folks Like Us back on air
I just discovered this forum, and would like to share with everyone some very good news about WDET itself.   Like many of you, I had been completely offended by the recorded phone message and the automated e mail responses when I contacted WDET to protest about Matt and Larry's dismissal last year. And I let the station know in no uncertain terms that they could no longer look to me for any financial support.   I'm delighted to report that, beyond restoring Matt and Larry's programs, the new management has taken the time to post on the front page of the WDET website a frank and comprehensive letter about all of the new changes, with an invitation to send in feedback. I'd been so vocal about my past disapproval that, in fairness, I wrote an e mail of appreciation to the new management, and I was just answered with a thoughtful, welcoming and personal reply.   I'll be back to pledging support as soon as the next drive starts and will be sure to do so during "Folks Like Us".
