And WCNC in Charlotte STILL doesn't have HD.

 

WOW! Now that is unbelieveable.

 

It's happening again...! WTHR is expanding their morning news to 4am. http://www.mediabistro.com/tvspy/wthr-expands-morning-newscast_b114401

 

I remember when KSHB attempted this. It failed miserably. I can't imagine that WTHR's morning crew will be too happy about this.

 

Maybe not, but they already have the resources so why not be Indy's 24-hour news channel (at least in the off-hours)? Radio isn't there anymore and mid-market newspapers are a shell of their former selves, so why not play to your strengths? Better to have 'round the clock news than Jerry Springer and Rikki Lake as filler, IMO.

In fact, I wonder why more stations don't use one of their subchannels and just run news 24/7. All you have to do is run it on a loop, with live weather maybe.

 

Of course, it's WSYX. Just a week after they came up with

.

 

Hey don't be knockin' Channel 6. Kendrick was a little stiff at first, but now he's eased into his role. You can tell he's loose and enjoys being there. Kendrick was a great hire. IMO. I didn't think so at first, but he grows on you. Kelly and Adam what's his name are also great hires. They actually have real meteorologists and a real weather staff there now.

By the way, I was at the Chipotle in Grandview one evening. Kendrick was sitting at one of the window seats eating dinner with his laptop. I didn't want to bother him, but I was tempted to say something nice about the work he does.
