So, today, I have had the TV on all day, really, and Cox Cable has done, to my count, four EAS required weekly tests. Not sure I've seen heard an RWT more than once in a day, except when KFMB (CBS Ch. 8, San Diego) had to redo one because the tones didn't go off. Sounds like a valid reason for a retest, but I didn't notice any irregularities today. Anybody monitor San Diego and know what all happened?

Geez that shirt on Marcus Esparza! Also, he sounds like a high school senior.

I'm watching CW right now. Son of a Critch, since nothing else is on. First I've seen the new logo on my TV. Looks pretty good! But I stand by this being somewhat of a lateral mood. I've seen a few local news sets that have been largely in the CW green before. Pretty edgy, and usually looks pretty nice. Not sure so much orange would translate that well though (though my affiliate hasn't immersed its news set in lime green and likely won't in slime orange).

I have always liked the edgy green color that has been the CW, but I don't hate the revamp; I just never personally wanted a revamp. Losing the "the" is actually a great decision for the sake of the logo. No more clutter (unless an affiliate clutters it up with calls and channel number poorly placed, but that would be on them). Truth be told, I have barely watched any CW over the years. I'd need to google what current big shows they have. I hope, for their sake, the actual programming gets beefed up (though that'll mean different things for different people). Maybe time for My Network to follow suit?

Backing up previous comment on privating the video. I know SA has a large Hispanic population, but "Puro San Antonio" seems more appropriate for a Telemundo affiliate or whatever else they have in SA.

Good for Dagmar. Hoping she can stay in town and do whatever's next, but I've heard various ideas for relocation. She was, until recently, a neighbor of my parents in Del Mar. They seemed to like her.

I like that site. Never really perused it before. It seemslike they don't have a search engine; you just need to click the "next" link over and over. I wonder what the full story is with Mullur.

Watched NBC 7 (KNSD) news today and saw a farewell to Mari Payton, at times reporter/investigator/anchor, and she is leaving today. Not sure what is next for her. She was there 18 years.

Devine, 69, joined NBC 7 as a reporter in 1984, when the station’s call letters were KCST. Her last day is Friday, Dec. 30. Ojeda, 61, has been with station since 1996. His last day is Friday, Dec. 23. Both of them told Times of San Diego they are retiring after accepting voluntary buyouts offered by NBCUniversal, which owns KNSD-TV. The conglomerate has been offering early retirement packages to employees ages 57 and older with 10 years of service as part of a companywide effort to reduce spending.

https://news.yahoo.com/political-analyst-loses-tv-job-151832492.html Political analyst loses TV job after mocking Trump’s appearance, Georgia station says A political commentator is out of a job after poking fun at former President Donald Trump’s appearance during a live telecast, according to a Georgia news outlet. WSB-TV Atlanta cut ties with longtime analyst Bill Crane on Monday, Aug. 22, following his remarks about Trump’s “looming orange face” and influence in the upcoming midterm elections. Crane’s comments, said during a live segment on Sunday, Aug. 21, “are not aligned with our commitment to fair and unbiased reporting and analysis,” Ray Carter, vice president and general manager for WSB-TV, said in a statement. “As a result, we’re ending our relationship with Mr. Crane, effective immediately,” Carter said. After news of his firing, Crane said he stood by his analysis but acknowledged his wording “could have been a bit more PC.”

I've liked their programming in the past, but NBC has so many cable stations that they may be reinventing the wheel with certain things. Too bad. Certain olympic sports need better exposure for better understanding and following.

I really hate KOIN's "6". But yeah, the "11" isn't great either.

Yeah, that's an oddly specific description of their area. Also, I feel like the strokeweight of the Circle 5 logo is different at 0:10 and 0:36. Maybe my eyes fail me, though.

Indeed. eems a bit of a hassle, and expense. for such a small tweak. Better go all out (I admit, I wouldn't mis the left-pointing arrows, but the rest of it is spot on, imho). I saw the promo mentioned above, and I actually like the animation of it, and the inverse black and white. Time will tell. I am more into NBC and CBS (news, mainly).
