IIRC, it’ll be if the company has a group-wide deal. So if YouTubeTV has a deal to carry WOIO, then WUAB may be carried as well, unless the contract was made when WUAB was an “independent”*. *since MyNetworkTV is technically not a network, I consider any station that carries MNT and nothing else an “independent”. EDIT: As of 8/5, YTTV only carries Cleveland’s big-4 affiliations, so no WUAB despite it being CW. Also, they now carry the Youngstown locals, yes, even WFMJ.

And WKYC and WEWS as well. 12:30 has always been off and on with infomercials for WEWS, but moreso with WKYC as of late. Hell, at one point, WKYC ran E/I in that 12:30 timeslot back 2 or 3 years back.

I'm sorry but that "16 News now" logo looks off. How drunk was the focus group that they showed this in front of?!?
-
IIRC, some of the Dish Network pre-Hopper receivers can take in OTA signals and appear on the guide. Comes in handey, especially when Dish has its occasional spats. Edit: Just looked on Dish's website. Apparently, even the Hoppers and Wallys can do it with a USB dongle.

So the main channel can air 2 hours of E/I and shift the third hour onto a subchannel? Dear Gray Please give WOIO this Saturday schedule: 6-8am 19 News Saturday Morning 8-10am CTM Saturday 10am-Noon E/I

Million-dollar question, did the Nexstar shells (Mission, Vaughan, Marshall) get pulled off DirecTV and U-Verse as well? Or just the Nexstar-owned stations?

Two Words...TRIBUNE CHRONICLE! (even if they're technically a Trumbull County newspaper)

...which will replace KARE and WUCW on channels 11 and 12 on Spectrum, respectively.

Now what happens to Sunny Side Up?
-
I half expected Sinclair to bring this tradition back, but good for Gray. IIRC, before XETV went Spanish, they played the American and Mexican national anthems at 5AM, even after they went 24 hours. At some point, they went to solely playing the Mexican anthem (I assume it's law in Mexico!) even to this day.

My guess is that Wendy Williams is going to WUAB to fill the 9am hour vacated by Steve Harvey while Live on Lakeside is reduced to 60 minutes. AFAIK, Sister Circle may be taken off the schedule and replaced with DBL come January.
-
This is probably going to be WKYC's new afternoon schedule for the 2019-2020 season September: 2pm Kelly Clarkson 3pm Daily Blast Live x2 4pm Ellen 5pm Dr Phil January: 2pm Kelly Clarkson 3pm Dr Phil 4pm Ellen 5pm Channel 3 News at 5

Jay Crawford of ESPN is coming to WKYC in the fall and will anchor a "interactive" midday newscast and a (FINALLY!) 5pm newscast coming sometime in 2020. https://www.wkyc.com/mobile/article/entertainment/television/former-espn-anchor-jay-crawford-joins-wkyc-this-fall/95-338dbb05-fae6-4d9d-aa9e-cd4b6df59a63

It's 9 on cable and 51 on satellite and OTA. Probably because cable penetration was high in San Diego, stations like KNSD (NBC 7/39) and XHDTV (MyTV13) brand by cable numbers.

I see he's taking the Lester Holt approach until CBS finds a suitable replacemwnt.
-
With WOIO's direction changing, it's obvious that Tanaka's ass is grass. He definitely knows he doesn't fit in with 19 News, so what to do: not give a f*ck obviously.
-
Hate to say it, but it feels like Gray tried to put "Action News" lipstick on a "Snoozefest 19" pig, when Gray should've shot the pig and start over. I would say give it time, but as of now it looks like they're trying too hard to be "Action News" without being "Action News".
-
Side note: Sunny Side Up (WOIO's 9am talk show), is still using the Limerick graphics, albeit using a live bug from the new package.
-
They had personalities like David Wittman and Denise Dufala (the former elder statesman of WOIO), but Raycom went cheap and decided to rely on Tucker and Tanaka for its newscasts.
-
Give it a year. They'll be sitting at the desk in no time, just like during the Action News era. Now we just need is Tanchak to scare the weather to you in the evenings...
-
"CLEVELAND 19 NEWS" IS DEAD! Long live "19 News". Edit: They're now using CBS Local instead of TITP.
-
“We’re going back to the way it used to be,” said a source to FTVLive. “They are finally admitting that the Cleveland 19 News was a complete bust,” the source added. Then again, we all knew Snoozefest 19 would fail from the start.
-
4:30am and WOIO is still on the current graphics, although the "Live" bug has been changed.
-
As long as Nexstar lets WJW be WJW, then they'll always reign supreme in Cleveland. With Tegna meddling into WKYC's affairs and WEWS just now getting out of its slump, WOIO has an opportunity to finally relive the glory days of Action News without all the infamy.

WOIO's 19 First Alert App has been updated!
