  • Thank you, remaining journalists . . .

    Each morning I log in and wonder if The 7 will still be there. I reinstated my subscription to support the journalists—now there are many fewer.

    There are still isolated great reports coming out of WaPo, but soon the balance will argue against subscription.

  • It was The Voice

    I began listening because of that voice. Host Jeffery Pierre provided concise news, very soothing and articulate. It was a thing of glory. It doesn’t have that anymore and it’s hard to get through because current host sounds unsure in her delivery. Jeffrey Pierre, what a concept.

  • A heartfelt thank you

    Thank you for being transparent through the transition. I’m sure many of your colleagues will be missed and we’ll all be keeping a look out for them on other shows and channels. It might be time to start new comprehensive grassroots networks and publications. I know I’d watch, read and listen to something that hasn’t been gutted by greed any day.
