General Tire paid a ton of bribes to foreign officials, and RKO General committed all kinds of fraud...so yeah, General Tire was shady as fuck. So is Sinclair, but from what we know, they can't really hide it as well (of course, it helped General Tire that this all happened before the Web became commonplace)...

Back in the 90s WFSB, WAGA & WITI whomever was the designer had the same idea/concept. The anchor desk and some of the paneling backdrop.

I can't believe Dennis has the plexi glass at his house. Now that's interesting. WOW

The plexi skyline backdrop from this set still exists and it's actually installed in current anchor Dennis House's attic.

I always wanted to know who did this set back in the 80s for WJXT, WDIV, WSB & WTVF. The style was very modern for the 80s era and the last picture of WTVF they did change the anchor desk in the 90s.

Tried again this morning on the Samsung browser on my phone, and still.... Maybe they're on to me....for everyone who hates the new logo they get the old one and anyone who likes it gets the new one

The contrast is much nicer.

Add WFSB (It appears the only Post-Newsweek station not to use this set was WPLG)...

WTVF 1993

A boatload of WTVJ early 90s clips.

Exactly but keep in mind there were several media companies that were already unhealthy to begin with including Sinclair, which saw their stocks plunge even before COVID. I'd say give it until the end of the year and we'll know more about COVID's impact of the RSNs as well as Sinclair but I have to imagine they're cheering for the NHL/NBA to finish their seasons and for MLB to start their season to avoid the ultimate collapse of the RSNs and thus, Sinclair.

Honestly I say it's a combination of two given the situation were in right now.

It could be a matter of Apollo wanting their own person in the top spot, or Guthrie not wanting to preside over what are likely to be draconian cuts once the full extent of the recession/depression hits the media sector, or some combination of the two.

That one actually doubled as the CBS Morning News set for a time...

Gray's last ditch attempt for the KCPM license. http://www.northpine.com/blog/2020/05/04/gray-tv-pledges-pandemic-programming-if-fcc-grants-rare-exception-to-restore-sell-grand-forks-license/

Here's hoping "WKYC Studios" meets it's maker and that someone good gets WOIO-WUAB.... ...that is, if the deal happens.....

Amen to that! I'm actually rooting for this to happen so that TEGNA-itis can die a horrible death!

All I have to say is holy conflict in many places and that Gray kills the TEGNA-itis with fire!!!
