IT'S THE 2017 BEE-OTCH OF THE YEAR!
Since 1999, we here at Chuck69.com have been opening a can of whoop-ass to determine whose ass needs kicking. Almost every day, we pick the Bee-otch of the Day. Fridays, we choose the Bee-otch of the Week and at the end of the month, it's... you know, the Bee-otch of the Month.
This year, seven individuals and groups all got chosen to be the Bee-otch of the Year. We've determined who gets this (dis)honor by the stats given to us by our Blogspot site where we archive the Bee-otch of the Day and other articles related to Chuck69.com (why we still have a website and a Blogspot site hosted by a third party is anybody's guess). But, without further adieu....
7) THE FCC (December) In December, the Federal Communications Commission voted 3-2 to override the Net Neutrality laws passed by President Obama. FCC chair Ajit Pai was a former executive of Verizon and even made a cheesy video telling people that after NN laws would be defeated they could still do whatever they want on the web. Thankfully, Baauer is planning to sue Pai and the FCC for his misuse of "Harlem Shake" in the video. Thanks to the FCC's overruling on NN, the major internet companies such as Comcast, Charter and others are planning to jack up internet prices next year.
6) WALMART (November)
Controversy swirled around the mega-retailer when Gary Joe Ahrns released a video of dozens of shopping carts loaded with items getting ready to be thrown out. The items included milk, cheese, cakes and other items. After the video was released, the chain announced that the purging was due to the store losing power for several hours and dumping all of the refrigerated items was protocol. Of course, none of the employees could have the food. Some say that Walmart dumps food on purpose to jack up prices. Yet, there's starving people everywhere.
5) SINCLAIR BROADCAST GROUP (May)
In May, it was announced that Sinclair was buying Tribune Broadcasting, including WGN-TV and Radio in Chicago. The news sent shockwaves all throughout the media since SBG is notorious for forcing their political views down their viewers' throats. They force their stations to air garbage like the Terror Alert Desk and right-wing commentaries during their newscasts. Here in Michigan, their assets include northern Michigan NBC station WPBN/7&4 and ABC WGTU 29&8, Flint/Tri Cities' WEYI NBC 25, WSMH Fox 66 and WBSF CW 46 and here in west Michigan, CBS WWMT/3 and CW7, which is on channel 3.2.
4) WKLT (June BOTD 6.15 BOTD 6.21)
The northern Michigan rock station created a stir last Summer when Nate "Smitty" Smith from crosstown rival Rock 105/95-5 was fired. Allegedly, it was because he trashed KLT and their afternoon jock Tom Devitt for ripping his show off while KLT used that clip and mixed it in with an online only segment where he played a comedy song with the word "cunt" repeated over and over. KLT allegedly sent their clip to several of Rock 105/95-5's advertisers who threatened to dump their spots on the station if he wasn't let go. Well, Smitty was indeed let go and word came out that KLT was the one to blame. However, KLT's operator, Jerry Coyne claimed that the story was all wrong. His side of the story was that since his wife was a board member of the Michigan Lottery, she had to report on Smitty bashing KLT to advertisers. But, this story does have a happy ending: Smitty was re-hired by Rock 105/95-5 a few months later and is back to handling afternoons and is now the station's Brand Manager. He'll also be hosting the station's yearly Metallica-a-thon on January 6th; he told me that all the ad spots had been sold out for the 26-hour show.
3) JEFF SEITING (July)The mayor of the small town of Kalkaska, MI near Traverse City was the center of controversy and near-riots that have torn the town apart. He's used his family's downtown landmark, the Hotel Seiting to hang pro-Trump signs and other right-winged paraphernalia. He's even taken to social media, attacking the LGBT crowd, Muslims and pretty much everybody that's not white, straight or Christian. Because of this, many are now boycotting the town of 2,000 and want the mayor to resign.
2) THE REPUBLICAN PARTY (February and April)This year has proven that the Repukes are not all for the middle class. They supported pedophiles like Roy Moore and voted in everything from lowering taxes for the wealthy and almost everything Drumpf wanted. The good news is that thanks to Moore's defeat in Alabama, the Senate only has a majority by one person.
