All Activity

Doug Dunbar has solo-anchored newscasts at KTVT off/on in the past. I haven't heard whether KTVT has solo-anchor plans for any of their other newscasts outside of their morning news.

I'm guessing poor little lonely Glendive is still at #210. Big jump in 1 years' time for Tyler-Longview. And 134,000 more HH in DFW--understandable, with the amount of people that are moving there.

It's already active on WALA 10.5 in Mobile. The365 was moved to a new subchannel on WMBP-LD (31.5).

The Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network will launch toward the end of September.

Use a fill-in reporter to cover street cams.

I meant to say a different skin/color set, not new version. Thanks for the clarification. I do like this one better than the one they used previously. Even the simplicity of the GDC elements are a welcomed improvement.

Those are the standard Fox O&O graphics. I don't spot anything different there. There are I think five different skin types of the Fox graphics with a different set of colors. Each one has an internal name that's a fox. I think the one with the light blue accents is called Arctic Fox.

WFLD unveiled a different color set/skin of the FOX O&O graphics today. Most notable change is that Good Day Chicago has, as described by Mike Caplan, a ‘traditional’ open (delivered by the station’s voiceover announcer) along with new graphic elements. The L3s are a lot more richer/sharper than the previous ones.

Ever since Emily Barr left, the new leadership seems determined to torch these stations. KSAT was absolutely obliterated by the buyouts. Now the local media reporter is claiming KPRC parted ways with its morning traffic anchor … and doesn’t plan to replace her?!? How do you do news in Houston and not have a morning traffic anchor and be taken seriously? (Again, assuming the report is right …) And don’t get me started on that horrid set KPRC installed that was overseen by the ND who left just a few months after it debuted.

A WISN update (and something very interesting): starting tonight, Suits reruns join the lineup at 1:07am (replacing the ET rerun and Daily Blast Live)

ARC has expanded to Beaumont too. 8am and 10am on KBTV. Weird to be have an hour-long gap, but they pull in “Daytime” from sister station KABB in San Antonio live during the 9am hour.

Looks like they tacked on a 4-430am newscast, too. Or has that been around for a bit? Bringing the 3pm back only for elections is ridiculous. Make a decision … are you going syndie or are you going local? Also … WSB is airing Judy Justice at 1 in the morning?!? No one else in the market wanted to pick that up? What a waste.

Only the top 200 were released AFAIK. Unclear what that means for 200-210

This is legit and corroborates with some other information I had previously gathered. @MarkBRollins88_v2 is it possible to get DMAs 201–210? Wanted to also add some context. I've been maintaining a database of ADI and DMA rankers that goes back to 1968 (the concept of exclusive markets itself only began in 1966 with Arbitron and 1967 with Nielsen). This is the first time AFAIK that Philadelphia has not been market #4. Dallas–Fort Worth was ADI #12 in 1968.

Can anyone show me a difference in numbers like the year-to-year change I feel like Sacramento made a higher gain. Tampa being larger than Miami is nuts.

KCAL+ officially launched today, on channel 9.6; the channel's listings (via TitanTV) aren't yet listed on the CBS Los Angeles website. KCAL also has yet to straighten-out the listings of their subchannels, with the programs on KCAL+ listed on 9.2 instead of on 9.6, with the station's other subchannels (The Nest, Comet, HSN, QVC) also displayed incorrectly. What I can tell you is that they have a three-hour game show block from 2-5pm: Funny You Should Ask, the new Flip Side, and Family Feud, with a hour of Hot Bench following from 5-6pm. Edit: I came across program listings for KCAL+ via TVGuide.com (search for 9.6), and as PhillyWatch mentioned before, it's all extra runs of current syndicated programming from 2 and 9, and from 7pm to 4am, MeTV Toons occupies the rest of the broadcast day. Of course, MeTV Toons is already broadcast in the region over KSFV 27.1 and KAZA 54.3 full-time.

Been that way since the first version of the new graphics debuted. And to YourWorldToday's post, but those are the International newsrooms, I meant CNN domestic.

Looks like CNN is no longer using the white CNN logo in a red box to differentiate the international versus domestic channel. It would be cool if CNN I had its own distinct identity --especially since International had a far greater news reputation than domestic in recent years. I suppose brand uniformity is what they're going for.

Assuming this is reliable, my notes Florida: Orlando has jumped from 16 to 15, Tampa has jumped from 13 to 11. Miami is still at 18 (from when I last checked rankings). Idk why I had thought the household gap between NYC and LA was much wider.

For the record, WJYS 62.2 will be the full-time feed with WJYS 62.3 as the overflow feed. Both will be WJYS' ONLY HD feeds because even the main feed is still in 4:3 SD as of this post.

A reliable source.

May I ask how you got this?
