  1. Yes! I know. It's absolutely the lowest bar and yet many can't meet it. Just demonstrates the fine people stations are hiring to direct their creative teams.
  2. *Aerial
  3. Yay! Low standards.
  4. This is just unitalicized version of Kent State's TV2
  5. https://tvnewscheck.com/business/article/fox-should-dump-broadcast-net-says-wall-street-analyst/
  6. Since Fox may be looking to unload their entire O&O division, Standards seems like the more likely candidate.
  7. And go indie? That would be a lot more expensive. Also, this will allow CBS to unload 8 stations, allowing Nexstar to enter 5 key new markets and develop 2 new duopolies: KMAX would become a duopoly with KTXL. KBCW would be a duop with KRON. Plus they could flip their MyNetworkTV holdings as well, to become CW O&Os. It would certainly allow Nexstar and NewsNation to access a larger percentage of households, demanding larger control of the linear news market, and most importantly, shaping the news conversation. Remember, they who have the widest distribution have the most say. I guarantee this is Sean Compton's thinking. He cares little for true news. NewsNation is GOP state television.
  8. Or, ya'know, buy a network for sale *cough* the CW *cough* and ramrod NewsNation down all affiliates whether they god-well-damn like it or not, because everyone loves a mandate.
  9. Queen City News is. Nexstar forces the stations to push NewsNation programming competing with their own broadcast affiliates. They demand additional packages but pay the staff no more for it. Nexstar throws tons of money at NewsNation but continues to let their stations suffer.
  10. For the absolutely nothing it's worth, KDVR.com has the new website look:
  11. It's all speculation. Let's just wait for the chits to fall where they may.
  12. Given the quickly dwindling subscription rate, only 72.7 million by 2023 from 100m in 2017, it's making less sense to brand your channel by cable position.
  13. If WFXT is what they consider a great investment of local news, then all stations under Standard are going to collapse. CMG is taking all assets from and dissolving the entire StandardMedia brand. Who knows what this means for WFXT, but WFXT is definitely not news leader. Maybe Standard can turn that around. WFAA hasn't been sold away from the Belo group before. I guess this is the final death knell.
  14. Some indication that he loves Denver for whatever reason.
  15. I realize it's a globally recognized brand, but it's the tail wagging the dog.
  16. And CBS is rebranded to Paramount Television Network.
  17. Being directed by someone who has never created a talent ID before.
  18. ** In-house talent bumps and opens (except for the '24' asset) ** Hothaus WKRC L3s (stripped down, no precomps, and lens flare sprites removed) ** Hothaus WKRC Full Screens, U3s, Weather and Franchises (not even rerendered with the new ABC logo) Nexstar ABC for the bug and ticker Result = NOT the presentation of an organized local station.
  19. Who has Denver's Duop?
  20. This looks like a set exhibit at NAB.
  21. I mean, Sam is the former Chief Met for the top-rated station in the country and he's working early AM. I'd be thankful for him if I were ABC. Who get's someone of this caliber to do mornings? Hell, who get's someone of Lee Goldberg's and Sam Champion's caliber on the same airwaves. Nuts.
  22. Longtime Colorado Sports Anchor Les Shapiro has entered hospice after an unsuccessful battle with cancer. Les had been Sports Director at at WEEK-TV, CBS 4 Denver, et. al. Having spent most of his career in beautiful Colorado, Les was a kind, humble man who loved his job, spending many more years on the radio than anything. Please keep his family in your thoughts during this challenging time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Shapiro
  23. Not gonna happen. They gummed up that set. That anchor desk has seen so many sets over the years:
  24. CBS News Colorado is live (nice rebrand, btw, but the graphics don't match network).
