  9. It time to reboot Captain Kangaroo and just place it at 7am on CBS.
  10. Not to sound like an ageist, he's 69 almost 70. I'm thinking he will be there (2) more years. Which will give him 40 yrs at BNS. However, despite the station being dominate it newscast is stale it not hip or nor it demos go to a younger demo. I think being with CBS also hurts them. SYX definitely does well in younger demos.
  11. So True!

  13. I think management at any station see the entertainment value he brings to the table. He's like the current President. He's a train wreck to watch, but the ratings are solid. That my take.
  14. WAGA Special on Dec10, 1994 the following day WAGA becomes FOX https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agbCTHZl30c

  20. WVUE/N.O. Fox 8 5pm 1996 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=NdNo8cyVuP0;t=486
  21. I bet you Zucker, has no regrets about Trump being President, and how the daily coverage of the President. Yeah, it litterally like watching a reality show. Zucker, will be on at CNN through 2020. I never liked how he moved everything from Atlanta to NYC. CNN's HQ was started in Atlanta and I'm sure Ted Turner, is so pissed off about how his former Cable News Network has become. Zucker, an egomaniac just like any other executive. He wants the ratings, and looking at the ratings, CNN chasing MSNBC and have a some wins, but not the big dog it used to be.
  22. Well, we have a difference of opinion on the issue, but I look at detail, history, and how the brand is define, and messaging At the end of the day it all about packaging the product. Logos, sets, tv personalities, music, because it selling the station as a whole package to the consumer. Of course market research is science by all means, and of course ratings come into play. Again, there are many top stations in the country with the same moniker branding name/ logo for (4) decades i.e. WABC, KABC, WLS, WPVI. Then you have even third place stations still stuck with the same logo and moniker name i.e. KSTP, WXIA and somehow I guess the market research wasn't too scientific for those station. Of Course logos have been modified from the Hearst Station to all the Circle 7, nobody is doubting that. As for WEWS they could have 500 circle 5 logo, but the current one didn't execute their brand, their station legacy. Even though the station had another logo during 1998-2007 era wasn't bad as the current one. IMO I just think the current one sucks! Hey, you can be tired of talking about it until Brittany Spears comes out with a hit clothing line. We all have our likes, dislikes about the industry so what are you going to do about it? This is a forum for us to discuss about anything TV, right? We just have a difference of opinion which isn't new on here.
  23. WXYZ/Detroit
  24. WEHT/Evansville during CBS era
