If anything, WOFL/WOGX's Sports segments could be taped and done by WTVT or at least their podcast "No Off Days" could be shown weekly. WTVT also co-produces Florida Tonight with WOFL.

It wasn’t a Pannoni channel but I cannot remember it for the life of me. All of a sudden I had a bunch of gray boxes on my YT favorites on my TV. I’ll find it and edit this.

And unfortunately the ban hammer got dropped on this channel. I need to start saving these videos! He had a bunch of older Super Bowl Pregames on his channel!

How many compilation videos of local news opens especially the major market stations from NYC, LA, and Chicago have any mention of every channel they took clips from? Nearly none. And I bet 90% didn’t ask permission either. I think Drew Techner is just sore about it and doesn’t get the nostalgia purpose behind it. He doesn’t make money from it and nor do I. Also my Publix Holiday Commercial Mega Montage made it to a couple of newspapers recognizing its nostalgia to Floridians. Publix’s marketing team never had a problem with it.

So I sporadically make videos on my YT channel (Jerseyfla). I have a lot of playlists on my YouTube channel that are public and private. I specifically made one for different TV station sign offs from areas that I have lived in my life and military career. Recently, I decided to make a nice piece of “nostalgic ASMR” if you will, something TV junkies can go to bed to, and create a montage of those TV station signoffs from the different regions I have lived with a title slide saying “It’s Bedtime In ________. Let’s Signoff”. I didn’t credit the YT channels I captured the material from by name, just saying “Credit to the YouTube Channels who posted these sign-offs. This video is intended for nostalgia and fair use. No copyright infringement is intended.” Last night Drew Techner who posts a bunch of TV and Radio airchecks from Philadelphia and NYC commented on my Long Island and Philadelphia Signoff videos with time stamps that I stole signoffs from his channel. I commented back stating that him accusing me of stealing his videos is the same as me stating that he stole them from the station he posted them from and that there are many montage videos with News Opens, Station IDs, and Signoffs on YouTube and I am not making any money off of any of my videos. An hour ago, I received a copyright strike on my channel for using some of his signoffs in two of my videos. What is everyone’s view on this? I see nothing wrong with it. It’s all copyrighted material owned by the station groups, not him. Heck, I even told channels who post chronological news open montages “Here, you are missing mine”. I mean if it’s a one for one entire video reposted and taking credit, yes that is over the line but when you use pieces of it that’s another thing. Should I fight it?

I found that he does! Although not all of it that was Youtube. Thanks!

TotallyKyle, A channel that had loads of Tampa area commercials including promos for Newscasts and Syndicated shows not seen anywhere else before in which the videos were titled "TBTapes", deleted their Youtube account. I wish I would have saved most of the videos but never thought of it. Hopefully he or his videos will resurface again or somewhere else.

You have to realize that Miami DMA is only 3 counties with one of them, Monroe County being the Keys and a mostly uninhabited swamp on the mainland. Plus, Miami-Ft. Lauderdale area is the highest COL in the state and many middle class have been priced out of there and moved to Orlando and Tampa areas. Tampa is a much bigger DMA overall in land size and had explosive population growth post-COVID from many Northerners and South Floridians.

This isn’t good. And it is truly saddening. I was stationed near Dayton, Ohio for 6 NFL seasons and if I was in my car during the 1pm games I would listen to Browns games with Jim Donovan on WHIO radio over the Bengals broadcasts on WTUE because I loved Jim’s enthusiasm even if the Browns were a loser most of the seasons between 2014-2019. Prayers for him and his family.

It mentions Seattle so it looks like he’s moving within Cox to KIRO. Not uncommon. Many WFTV alums moved to Cox flagship WSB in the past like Zach Klein and Jorge Estevez.

I was looking around Youtube for a link to clip of a WBRC 1984 Newsbreak during the Summer Olympics Closing Ceremonies that was shown simultaneously to one I saw on a former Jacksonville TV station employees Instagram for WTLV. I saw on the other videos next to the Newsbreak clip that longtime WBRC anchor Scott Richards passed away back in February. He was main anchor at the station from 1981-2014 and up until a short time before his death he did retrospectives on WIAT. Longtime WBRC anchor Scott Richards dies There was no link to it here on the In Memoriam forum.

Interesting how the other three West Palm Beach stations bought commercial time to advertise for their newscasts. The other stations primarily focused their news coverage on Palm Beach County and even Broward County stories, hence why WTVX lost their CBS affiliation to WPEC earlier that year in the big NBC/WTVJ triggered affiliate swap. WTVX was the only true station that covered the counties north of PBC.

I would love to see this and have it be a happy medium. I really wish NBA Finals rights were split with NBC on every year that ESPN has Stanley Cup Finals because ESPN is horrible in their coverage but like I said in an earlier comment ESPN prioritizes the NBA over all of their properties outside of MNF and College Football.

It will be interesting to see if WTVT will run it in the morning. It will probably be most likely for an hour at 11am replacing and shifting Sherri since WTVT has Live (an hour later) with Kelly and Mark at 10am. I would think maybe 1pm but they have a local cooking show Dinner DeAs and 25 Words or Less. I would hate for WTVT to dump good, local non-brokered programming.

This is shocking and sad. I admittedly hadn't watched the KTLA Morning News in probably 16 years since I dropped Dish Network who had a Superstations package but Sam Rubin was a reporter who didn't go too "tabloidy" with his entertainment reporting something ET and Access Hollywood has fallen into instead of reporting Entertainment news straight. RIP Sam.
