They look REALLY good! Also, I LOVE the open for WTVG ! Not trying to be negative (sorry in advance?) but I am just keeping my fingers crossed that WOIO 19 doesn't use the WWBT red when they switch.... From past experiences, I have a bad feeling that they will. So much red. But the other colors are great on the other stations. WBJR did a fantastic job!

Even more billable hours are coming... https://www.nexttv.com/news/owner-of-wadl-urges-mission-to-close-station-purchase

All the best Mike Seidel in the next chapter shame that he got the ax at TWC.

I thought that it be Stadium since Jerry owns Stadium that he bought the stake from Sinclair for White Sox, Bulls, & Blackhawks. I didn't think that Standard General would buy the rights for the White Sox, Bulls & Blackhawks guessing that is coming from Soo Kim.

And Wood TV got rid of The Grio on DT3 for Defy last Wed.

I knew that Beavers & WSU 10 games each on The CW was rumored a few months ago that The CW was getting their home games and Fox gets 3 games from both schools.

It's a great improvement for KBJR from the few minutes that I just watched online. They have not gone full GrayOne with the weather graphics yet, however. Looking forward to watching on TV at 5!

WTVG and KBJR have both gone GrayOne.

Mike Seidel is one of the casualties. https://weatherboy.com/mike-siedel-axed-others-pushed-out-at-weather-channel-as-downsizing-hits-network/ With cuts like these and Allen Media trying to infiltrate their own low-rent programming, it's best to let the major companies pass on Byron Allen's involvement. We don't need another Sinclair or Nexstar to run a cheap operation with a lot of reach. These employees are getting screwed with their severance and what quality they put out now could be further in question.

They only play each other once. The rest are for their remaining home games against other teams. They are not eligible for their championship game.

Kim Godwin is out as ABC News head.

In reality, this wisp of a conference has a scheduling alliance with the Mountain West and will be eligible for their championship game. (Just making sure everybody's on the same page as to the actual contents of this TV package.)

You would have thought they would've wound it down like Legacy did when Gray was able to end the charade with them and after the Tegcoxpollo deal died, but I guess someone needs to keep WLNE off life support until Sinclair finagles the ABC affiliation onto a WJAR sub; might as well be them. And they've had more deals die than actually go through. And again, Chicago has another pointless sports channel move like when Fox wound down FSN Chicago, and with no full guarantee of carriage like NBCSN offered via Comcast, two teams in terminal struggle with an owner headed the same way, and the Sox threatening to move down 65 to Music City (just don't talk to me about the actual team). It's no wonder Chicago remains a strong sports radio town with all these changes.

Well my station wftx got the scripps treatment fired alot of anchors and has a lawsuit on them etc. And hired and fired the subsequent successor news team and in this new style newcast all you see is the "community correspondent" reports don't even see the anchors anymore

Is Tony Guinyard leaving the station? I don't see her bio on the station website.

Standard? No pun intended, but that one came out of left field. You’d think Reinsdorf would just repurpose Stadium into the new RSN. I’m not sure how Standard is going to be able to run a regional sports net when it seems like they can barely run their local TV affiliates.

That's Michael's first of many terminations since March 2022 (pannoni10, which never came back). At this point, he may have to resort to Archive.

Michael has had so many accounts terminated for a long time now. Hopefully, he'll elaborate somewhere eventually.

Looks like Pannoni4 might be gone. I don't see it anymore on YouTube. That was Michael's oldest-running channel...like 8 or 9 years old.

I consider mike seidel to be staple of my childhood when I watched the weather channel for fun

Yeah, Jim is absolutely the only pre-1995 on-air talent who is protected from layoffs. Pretty much everyone else from that pre-1995 era has been laid off sometime during the NBC era or the Allen Media era from 2008-Present.

It stinks to see Mike go. He was so great all those years at TWC, and you'd think with how many years he was there, Byron would want to keep him. He was a very hard worker and had so many great moments on the air. I know he's 68, so I'm not sure what's next with him, but it's still awful. It'd only be worse if Jim Cantore was among the layoffs, but I don't see that ever happening.

The Pacific Northwest. Everywhere else, I don't know.

Launching a new RSN in 2024 - this can only go poorly
