Sinclair Media ain't s**t! They always screw up. Things need to change in the media world.

I see a two scenarios. 1. KMPX as an independent maybe a CW affiliate. IMO, WFAA could start expanding and producing news on KMPX.* (*) When WFAA was owned by Belo, they operate KFWD and rebrand it as "Classic TV". We might see a revival of Classic TV if KMPX goes English language independent, and move Estrella TV to 29.2. 2. Keep KMPX on Estrella TV and movie it to 8.5.

No way! Absolutely Not! They'll be a lot angry viewers calling, Facebook messages, and letters will disapprove if that happens.

First Tom Randles, now Alan Frio is being let go from WSMV as well.

I don't like it now one bit... on WFAA I mean.

No word on what KVEO will do about Robert Bettes who is currently the stations Chief Meteorologist. And Pittsburgh's CBS 2 (KDKA) is adding more news to its lineup.
