  1. No support to compete against David and Jeff in a tightest race we've seen.

     

    What kind of support? A newsroom staff? Lots of reporters and correspondents to talk to every night? A big budget? A good chair? Moral support?

  2. No no no, I'm checking other websites for any buzz happening at low-rated NBC and Carson Daly has to leave Today Show because of prior flights going back-and-forth will be hectic for him.

     

    You've had some bad travel experiences, haven't you?

  3. That was NOT a good choice. NBC needs to end weekend editions of TODAY. Peter needs to stay in Washington to help his wife Alison Starling.

     

    Okay, I'll bite: Why is it not a good choice?

  4. I had a feeling it was coming. Really. Every duopoly that Hearst has, it produces news for its sister. Hearst takes advantage of its duopolies, just like Cox and unlike some other groups.

     

    And where they don't have a duopoly, they put the news on a subchannel, correct?

     

    At least, that's how it is for WCVB and WMUR (which are technically a duopoly but serve different parts of the Boston DMA).

  5. Here's the thing, there's the "old" WorldNow/Frankly platform that sites like WSMV are on and then there is the updated new platform that other sites like WGCL and AZFamily.com are on. KMOV is also on the updated platform.

     

    All three of those sites may be on the updated platform, but only AZFamily.com has an updated design -- and even then, it's not responsive.

  6. It's time for a refresh, those Belo graphics have been in use for over 4 years now and they haven't aged that well.

     

    The same could be said for the website.

     

    (Not that Meredith's other stations' sites are much better. Most of them still have the same design they had a decade ago.)

  7. If you think starting news at 4:00 p.m. is early, then try starting at 3:00 p.m. WBBH is the next station to do it. (I would use my Twitter but the account is locked out at the moment).

     

    Well, all those retirees have to have something to watch...
