I talked to Freddie (houstontvnews) on Facebook and he told me that his YT account was disabled. Too many videos flagged by NBCUniversal in a short amount of time. He'll be back soon.

In the memory of Texans owner Bob McNair. If it wasn't for McNair, NFL Football would have never return to Houston. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=Aq-GIkxGe6I;t=9

Folks, it was three months ago I predict Jason Wheeler would be John McCaa's successor when he retires in March of next year... but I was wrong, it's Chris Lawrence who'll be joining News 8 at 5, 6 & The Update at 10pm. Lawrence who's currently at WRC/NBC 4 will join WFAA in January 2019, the station announced today, and will move into the evening anchor role filled by McCaa, who has already announced that he'll retire March 1st. https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/local/chris-lawrence-joins-wfaa-to-co-anchor-evening-newscasts-in-march-2019/287-615957480

Well, someone need to let compubit (JRD) know that he's posting newscasts on YT without his permission.

In the memory and in tribute to the late, great Tom Hooper. Godspeed Tom.

He was Milwaukee's answer to Marvin Zindler. Sad news from WITI-TV, long time TV6 News Anchor and Contact 6 consumer watchdog Tom Hooper has passed away at the age of 85. Over the course of his 35-year career in local news, most of it as Contact 6 anchor, Hooper's name be synonymous with the journalism principles of comforting the affected and giving voice to the voiceless. Hooper died this evening in his home in Georgia at 85. Prayers and condolences goes to The Hooper Family and his extended family at TV6 News (FOX 6 News WITI). RIP Tom and Godspeed. Say hello to Vince Gibbens from all of us here, and tell him we still miss him. https://fox6now.com/2018/10/19/longtime-fox6-news-anchor-tom-hooper-passes-away-at-85/

Case in point. I had a vision that KDAF and KIAH would get back into the news business. For Example, what if KDAF and KIAH ask Tegna stations WFAA and KHOU to produce newscasts for their station. KDAF/WFAA - News 8 Daybreak on CW33 (7-9AM) Repeat of News 8 Midday (12-1PM) and News 8 at 9 on CW33 (9-10PM) KHOU/KIAH - KHOU 11 News This Morning on CW39 (7-9AM) KHOU 11 News at 3 on CW39 (3-3:30PM or 3-4PM) and KHOU 11 News at 9 on CW39 (9-10PM) Good Idea or Bad Idea?

Well, according to TitanTV schedule, KDAF has Two & a 1/2 Men and MOM from 5-6PM and DailyMailTV from 9-10PM M-F starting Monday. https://cw33.com/on-air/program-schedule/
