Considering they have to go up against 10-ton gorillas in WDAM and WTOK, if they make a weak first impression they will get absolutely nowhere and get virtually no ratings.

Sinclair Broadcast Group - General Discussion

Until the FCC makes it clear regarding the UHF discount, they are maxed out now...so that is their only pathway... -
TEGNA Broadcasting and Digital General Discussion
GoldenShine9 replied to ABC 7 Denver's topic in Corporate Chat
I always hated the 2001 WFMY logo (the current one), but the new one makes it look like an O&O...is this a new trend from Tegna? Taking a page from Meredith? -
So what "independent" Big Three stations are still out there?
-
In my opinion, Brittani Dubose is a rising star. She reminds me of a young Janice Huff.
-
That is amazing they would do that...Tribune and Hearst must have worked out a deal there. I figured that KFOR would have been filled in by a sister station (most likely KFSM) first if the entire news team is away.

An "arcade claw" will never fly in Oklahoma. Most who do weather there have to have high-level meteorology training (and it can't be learned on the job either), or they would be laughed at.
-
On her Facebook page, many are blaming Disney/ABC for the move, not understanding that they don't own the station...
-
Scripps does have mostly low-ranked stations in their markets...most of them seem to be 3rd or 4th place stations, which may explain their financial performance.
-
If Scripps decided to turn around and sell, who would buy them? I don't think any company can absorb them whole...
-
Could KAIT put CBS on 8.3? If Tribune wants to protect the area, they might want to put up a satellite station in Jonesboro...although out-of-market satellites are quite rare, and the presence of the satellite would split ad dollars.
-
Being a "weather anchor" does not help your resume these days either though...although she does have seniority on her side.
-
Last place stations are most likely to do things like that. They are often seen as a quick opportunity to jump into a big market...
-
Can Media General run a cleaner slate than Scripps though? I agree though WTVF is in a terrible position - it is regionally isolated from most of Scripps' portfolio AND a CBS affiliate for a company that has never had good relations with that network. Nashville is weird with so many "black sheep" stations with their owners due to all these acquisitions.
-
Speaking of Hearst, has any work been done at WJCL yet? I'm guessing it gets a new logo as well.
-
Regarding West Palm Beach, hasn't WPBF been catching up to WPTV?
-
I thought WPBF was catching up to them?

The new WWL logo looks like a blast from the past - resembles heavily their 1988 logo. -
That sounds quite silly in my mind, since that is a HUGE market downgrade for the same job...

I think the full logo (bottom left) is most likely to proceed. It also matches the Gannett websites as well (easy to shape it to the smaller header when scrolling down) and the infamous words "A Gannett Company" can fit directly underneath as well. -
I guess those stations weren't valuable enough to get another buyer to scoop them up, since the outside date had passed.
-
One of the few markets to see a complete overhaul with no Sinclair in sight...
-
Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I noticed KALB (and its DT2) have new logos, and I believe new graphics as well. All traces of the Media General legacy are gone now.

I wonder what ex-London station(s) will be first to get the Gannett on-air and web graphics. I would think it will be sooner rather than later... -

I would think the ex-London stations should see changes starting in October if they get all the ex-Belo stations finished by then (which appears likely).
