  1. The branding wouldn't get any better though.
  2. Ew. Alright. I'll have to check that. My issues tends to be that KMGH has terrible interference on 7.1 and although it has a stronger signal on 30.3 (KZCO-LD), not all of my systems will see that signal. Though strangely, I get KKTV and I live in Douglas.
  3. There is something I'm generally confused about. Why was the Fox deal only approved with the sale of the Fox RSNs? Fox owns FS1-3, and though it wasn't included in the deal, the RSNs could have been a great side-car for ESPN. Since FS1-3 and ESPN are cable nets, I can't see why the FEC wouldn't have approved the RSNs sold to Disney as ESPN RSNs.
  4. I think I'll skip that, thanks.
  5. They informally rotate. There is another partner which would be Newsradio KOA, who's licensed to my hometown ironically. https://denver.cbslocal.com/2016/06/20/john-morrissey-colon-cancer-screening-koa/ https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2020/1/14/grounded-in-atlanta
  6. It's a 2003 Eurocopter AS-350 AStar (single-turboshaft). Tail Number N6UX. It has an internal name at the local stations. If I read you into it, I'd have to kill you. I don't make up the rules. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/N6UX Interestingly, the Bell 407, tail #N2QU, that's currently grounded for WSB-TV, used to fly in Denver under the tail #N90TV for KUSA.
  7. 2 different WOI-5 logos in 5 years. Wow. And only providing food to staff out of a vending machine. Stay classy, Tegna.
  8. Really? What gave you that idea?
  9. Oh thank god! She can go the f*ck away!
  10. WLBZ is a semi-satellite of WCSH. I think they still maintain separate IDs.
  11. TEGNA mandate requires the use of the PSIP in all branding. So it's most certainly either ABC 5 or WOI 5. So either they pickup WOI5.com or they keep ABC5Iowa.com as the root. The latter is cheaper.
  12. They definitely will. It doesn't comport with their branding policies. ABC24.com redirects to LocalMemphis.com currently. So ABC24.com will become the root domain. WeAreIowa.com may remain the same, but it could redirect to ABC5Iowa.com as well, to align closer to Tegna's branding standards.
  13. People, what we have here is a mix of the CBS O&O package and the CBSN package. That's what we will see going forward.
  14. These are super clean and easy to use. They aren't as bulky as Nexstar's website or as clunky as Sinclair's. A step ahead of Scripps too.
  15. Hmm. You may want to send a note about that to the NMSA.
  16. Better than KRDO who's the last station using CounterPoint.
  17. If they aren't real, which I sort of expect at this point, they are really easy to copy!
  18. This opinion is making me very uncomfortable. The Rock or NBC News from Groove Worx (cr. 2007), is definitely not in-line with the local branding and feel of the market. Even though the Tegna graphics hub is located here, they have persistently chosen the most bland package to work across multiple markets.
  19. I'm not sure if his contract at KYTX was not renewed or he decided to move back to Colorado. If you recall, his children and grandchildren live in Colorado and his ailing mother live(ed?) in Tyler. He left KMGH (during a tumultuous time at that station, to be sure) to be closer to his mother, but had frequently returned to Denver where he owned a second home to visit local family. I haven't asked him directly, because it's none of my business, but he could have simply decided not to renew his contract at KYTX because he had no more local ties. He seems to persistently reside in Colorado these days, even after his KDVR/KWGN contract was not renewed.
  20. And then given the same boot along with Ernie Bjorkman at KWGN. This was really disappointing. Innovation is great, but long-term guiding experience is critical too (especially when it comes to anchors). Unfortunately, I can't say the same thing for GMs.
  21. I really have to wonder how KCNC manages to still ranks number 2 especially with all of the issues that I see and know about.
