http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/8/5/san-antonio-gm-looks-for-the-leak Have you read today story about management and Channel 4? How do you both feel about this story? He can be very snarky at times, and other times shock when he praises people too.

WRTV main anchor Todd Connor is out. (I wonder what going on at these Scripps shops?) http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/wrtv-anchor-todd-connor-out/175378

More comings at WAGA/ FOX5 http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/7/27/fox-aka-the-firm-shaking-up-atlanta-anchors

I think they thought she was going to take that buyout offer with her age & years of services, and this was the only way to keep her on board.

WAGA-TV Eyewitness News at Noon last few months as being CBS.

I know that WVEE had to cut some personalities paychecks over the last few years, so it profitable yes, but they've had many cuts over the last 7-8 years. http://www.tvnewsinsider.com/story/cbs-planning-to-spin-off-radio-stations-in-ipo/ Les, wants his hands in CBS and will fight the Redstones left/right.

I see Colleen leaving after the sale is completed. I see her leaving in 2017 giving 30 years to the station next year.

Why not have her do (2) newscast, which wouldn't be hard to do, and I don't think should would want to come in just to do (1) newscast. WSB being the leader likes to have a heavy bench of anchors.

WOIO 10 yr Anniversary from FOX to CBS

Radio, in Atlanta, Yes, I can see that, but V-103, NO! Staff too heavy, and CBS is getting out of radio I see more cuts @ V, I don't see that happening. I see her going to any of the (3) outlets in TV, or radio, PR. Idk, just speculating-

Newsblues Headline Today Atlanta anchor says she's joining NBC in Philly----Sounds like Erin Coleman going WCAU.

in 1994 FOX was moving from WOIO to WJW-TV8 More WJW promos switching to FOX

Maybe Lisa Rayam, going to WSB, but Stephany Fisher joining FOX 5 has been speculation, so at this moment until a press release, or somebody close to any camp has any info it just speculation. Erin Coleman going WCAU, it probably true, but if they're trying to save money why not have Jacqueline London anchor all the newscast on WCAU? 4,5,6,11? I guess that unheard in a top 10 market?

Or what about FOX in Philly? Hmm. you never know, right?

I would rather have Jedediah over Paula and the rest stay the same. Whoopi, Joy, Sunny, Sara and Jedediah so you can balance it out to have a conservative. Paula, just drives me crazy.

I think it would be a good move, but didn't know they had a 3pm news or 3pm local program " 2 NEWS The Refresh" followed by Jeopardy and move Wheel to 6:30. ET could move over to KJZZ...Sounds like what they should do, but who knows.

Dennis Swanson has left FOX http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/6/14/fox-oo-executive-leaves-the-firm

Again, I said if ABC really wants to sell, and it goes back to where Robert Iger said in print that they were entertaining the idea to sell their O&O. So, it a crap shoot, but nothing in present day broadcasting business is set in stone. There always the unknown to anything, and nothing ever last forever.

That always been the inside buzz that Scripps & ABC would merge. Scripps always a had a great relationship with ABC, and leverage it two legacy stations in order to do some network shuffles in the 90s. WXYZ would rejoin being an ABC O&O. Fast Forward now, Scripps has turned into a cookie cutter product just like so many other broadcast companies. ABC rakes in alot of money from their O&O stations, but really want to sell their stations, but why when they're raking in huge dollars. My hope would be to see Cox & Scripps could merge where Cox holds the broadcasting stations & Scripps do the cable/syndication part. I would also like to see Cox buy ABC out if they really want to get out of the business of owning local stations. I can see Cox being the winner on both sides of the story.

WXYZ/ ABC Detroit has a new ND Rhonda LaVelle comes from KPRC in Houston. http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/6/6/motown-station-names-new-nd @ns8401 What you think? Waiting to get your take?

It been said they're trying to get to the 20th season, and been said that this could be possibly their last season with this show. The View is apart of ABC NEWS division, and it wouldn't be surprise if they ax the show to move in Good Morning America 9am version or Good Afternoon America. Ben Sherwood wants that so bad because of Today being on for 4 hours. I don't see them giving that hour back to the affiliates. I see ABC keeping it to get another show that less expensive to produce. That's soo true, but it be nice to work her hours and get paid that amount of money though.

Why is it ridiculous? Matt Lauer allegedly get paid $28 million dollars. Has been reported that Robin Roberts get paid 14 million. Hey, you can't knock what somebody else is getting. That means they have good agents to get them that kind of deal.

I'm thinking if Meredith doesn't get it act together(Yeah right) they could just sell it to CBS and create a combo with 46/69 under the CBS umbrella. However, I think Meredith wants to merge with another media company. Idk maybe Hearst or Graham. Time will tell on how CBS 46 goes through so many managers throughout the years.

News Director Larry Perret & Senior EP out at WGCL/CBS Atlanta; Frank Volpicella steps in as new ND coming from KVUE in Austin. http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/5/31/blowout-in-atlanta http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/2016/05/31/yet-another-cbs46-news-director-departs-this-time-after-20-months/
