FOX is serious about keeping cost down for programming on the local level. Look, They got those 2, and the crew already on the clock...and you get hundreds of emails from people pitching ideas, cooking, fashion and mommy stuff segments. This shit is cheap to produce AND some crack smoking sales weasels have learned that you can SELL entire segments to plastic surgeons and yoga yogi's. Stations are finding that 9-11a time slot is becoming more profitable....and with reduced labor cost...it's cheaper to produce in-house again. Just like the early days of TV... In house production.

It's like Pop News and Heat Index had children.... And they're already being exploited! OTHO, I can enjoy more Michael (and less Lara) on the show. He's naturally bubbly and spontaneous and it works towards its favor. Why can't they make him official already?

they should change their slogan from most powerful name in local news it should be fox 5 the most fluffiest name in local news

Keep an "eye" out. Very very soon.

Remember the conversation in the WMAQ thread proposing the outside chance of Ron popping up there? His subtle dig at NBC 5 last night probably puts that to rest (around the 7:20 mark)... (Still uploading) Here's the playlist of promos and such. I'll be adding to it later... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=AX5c3-FeRlE;list=PLRUzFrK0TcW2TgvO579jf7vNf4_-4zza8 Here's the final broadcast highlights... After seeing the week of tributes, Paul Meincke's work needs be put in for Emmy consideration. The amount of research, the number of interviews, the accuracy of the material, plus his witty and thoughtful writing made for a very impressive series of segments.

So basically say goodbye to Antenna TV and hello to six shopping channels, Sonlife and LATV all packed in nicely pixelated 408i in a blatant pre-auction cashgrab. Still galls me that they threw off WeatherNation for a channel that has three slots on Charter (Sonlife).
