At this point, I feel like that’s up to NBC; they seem to have all the leverage right now, and I imagine they’d want exclusivity if they’re able to get it. Granted, if I were David Zaslav and I knew the NBA was going to increase their rights fees, I would’ve reached out to NBC (or someone else) from the get go to partner on the second package. It’s exactly what CBS did w/ Turner when they were at risk of losing Men’s March Madness to ESPN. There’s no guarantee it would’ve worked, but I think it would’ve been a far better strategy than Zaslav’s horrid public negotiation (“we don’t need the NBA”).
-
Maybe there's a possibility that the two companies can split the cost and the rights of the remaining part of the deal. That way, the NBA will still get their increase in the rights fee and both wbd & NBC get a piece of the package.
-
This is already been discussed elsewhere.
-
NBC remains in the driver's seat for the third NBA package. The likelihood of NBA on TNT ending is increasing by the day.

KMBC-TV has the new graphics.
-
In January 2024 WISN TV launched new look. and recently it has rollout in other stations. When did WDSU update to HD?
-
Stephen Morgan and Marissa Torres make a great team on “Weather Command”…. Still no sign or word about Amy Freeze, but hope this team sticks together. If Amy returns it would be great to see her paired with Jason Fraser in the afternoons…

KMBC-TV's looks really cool. Actually, the News opens looked awesome.

Brad Byrd is departing WEHT (and WTVW) after 46 years; not calling it retirement. The guy is the real deal and I’m guessing he is just done with Nexstar or they want to cut costs. https://www.tristatehomepage.com/news/local-news/brad-byrd-to-leave-weht-wtvw/ https://www.facebook.com/100001492077485/posts/pfbid0muFUbrjj3z653qoeYk2Ypw5YvHfyovjP8eoZqwC1GSzkgrdfqzEBZAKrWFvVxeUjl/?

More stations have picked up these new opens.....

As @Georgie56 has pointed out, Funayama has covered previous Olympics, so it isn't unusual to be asked back despite working at a non-NBC station. It's a win-win situation.... WCVB has someone in Paris covering the Olympics on NBC's dime and NBC adds an experienced Olympics reporter to the roaster. A simple mistake...
-
She’s participated in past Summer and Winter Games for NBC.
-
I was just wondering, I thought it was a tell tell sign the news station is starting to move away from the news reporter.
-
It honestly depends. Some say the morning news is better for parents with young kids?
-
Why does the article say that wcvb is an NBC affiliate when it's an ABC affiliate?
- Yesterday

Small question. It's it a good or bad thing when a news reporter gets moved from evening news to morning news?

TEGNA Broadcasting and Digital General Discussion

I find it very interesting that these broadcast companies have jumped onto the sports bandwagon. I think they see the collapse of regional sports, and the fact that they are pseudo-networks in themselves. -
For 5 seconds, I actually thought it was Karen Kornacki from KMBC-TV, and I was like, "Did she just un-retire just for this?" Turns out, no.
-
It's interesting that they went with the sports reporter from WCVB instead of their NBC 10 Boston station. I'm just pointing this out here.
-
Steve Kornacki and Willie Geist will be a part of NBC’s coverage. As will Golf Channel’s Kira Dixon and WCVB’s Naoko Funayama.

With all the Caitlin Clark buzz, WTHR and stations in 11 other markets (including many non-Tegna stations) will carry 17 Indiana Fever games: https://www.tegna.com/tegna-and-indiana-fever-expand-broadcast-distribution-of-the-fevers-exciting-upcoming-season-in-11-additional-markets/- 3596 replies

If the system carries NewsNation, all Nexstar would have to do is ask them to carry either the CW feed or one of their adjacent CW O&Os. That may be a harder ordeal than trying to please the FCC

They could also launch their own cable-only station with the Plus feed and have someone handle advertising.

I’ve noticed lately that KTLA has been using a new font when they show current/future temperatures. It’s a possibility that they may be testing for a new graphics package in the near future but I don’t want to speculate too much.
-
It's complicated. The CW / Nexstar could ask cable companies in Detroit to put stations like WLAJ-DT2 in Lansing, Michigan, WBSF in Bay City (Michigan Thumb), or WTVG-DT2 in Toledo, Ohio. On-Air; Well, good luck with that.
