KBOI isn't the only station who did it.

And I see here that this one is identical to the one KBOI posted. Coincedence? I think not.

Nope. Not doctored.

These people just have issues then.

And it happened TWICE during THE SAME HOUR.

Twice is not an accident.
Tell me this was doctored. Please.

Yes, Sinclair went there.

They "apologized." Uh-huh. Riiiiiiight.

This tells you all you need to know about them.
If I may paraphrase Rihanna, "don't tell us you're sorry when you're not. Baby, when you know you're only sorry you got caught."

"3 Wide Life" is an E/I show (but not necessarily shown in E/I permitted time slots) produced by Sinclair executive Steve Pruett, and is aired by their stations gratis.
He had that on at Comcorp too. I remember when that would come on KMSS-KSHV.

Nah I think they'll want FOX or The CW so that they can move the WTLH news there and possibly expand it along the way.
Wouldn't be surprised if that was the ultimate end game.

New M&A for Gray.
Gray is buying Budd Broadcasting's WFXU and WUFX-LP for $600K.
No telling what they're going to use it for.
Maybe they're positioning themselves to snatch up a network affiliation for Gainesville or Tallahassee.

It's definitely looking better than the Litton E/I crap:
The shows are a mix of old and new. Some of them are making their U.S. broadcast debuts. It's a little surprising. This looks like an actual effort at reviving Saturday (and weekday) morning cartoons by Sinclair.
It pains me to admit this but that's actually pretty impressive.

Add New York Magazine to the list of misinformed sources...
It's shoddy reporting like this that ENCOURAGES Sinclair that they are being unfairly targeted. In this case, they are.
Any ammunition they can state as fact only makes their spreading of other falsehoods that much worse.
We all hate these people as much as anybody and, as seen in recent days, everyone has had their time (and some WAY longer than necessary) on the soapbox to rant about what the FCC will and will not allow them to do and how horrible they are etc. I'll admit I had my moments. But at the same time, they shouldn't be targeted like this (and no doubt due to their stances on some things.). It just helps them look like the ones being bullied. I hate to play devil's advocate here but it's the truth.

The other question: why would Ion want to sell WBPX to anyone? They operate it at the bare bones (even more so if corrupt Altji Paid Off does away with the main studio rule) and have to be profitable.
Maybe it would fetch them some money that they could be in need of but to ABC? Nah. You probably already know this but there were many rumors that NBC was trying to get it in 2006 to replace WHDH which was right around the time Ansin created the 7/56 duo. The most I could see between ABC and Ion is a hyothetical alliance (I know, really out there). But thats not happening.

Maybe NewsBlues got their A's mixed up and mean an N.
Maybe now, they'll learn to proofread. but seriously, I would not be surprised. Maybe next time, they'll think this stuff through.

What about KCPQ?
Fourth.

Let me guess, they're gonna load up on the DHX/Cookie Jar library crap?
That'd actually be better than this Litton Entertainment/Steve Rotfield crap they have on now. At the very least, put some entertainment into the shows. The only Saturday morning show I like on any of the broadcast networks is CBS' The Inspectors. At least they're somewhat trying to be entertaining.
I understand this is a different era but still.

I'm not sure the correlation between this news and their merger bid. Sinclair has partnered with (the rotted remains of) MGM for quite a few things now.
My bad. I was thinking Tribune was behind the programming for This. MGM aint gonna be around much longer anyway.
-
I didn't know whether to post this here or in the Sinclair/Tribune thread but better safe than sorry. If this means what I think it means, then Nexstar and Fox need to step it up with their bids.
-
Nexstar is sucking up to the administration just like Sinclair is. They will both get exactly what they want as long as they keep that up.
185 Nexstar stations? I thought it was less than that? Or did we miss something?

No matter who the producers were, how do you know that they weren't required to do this by company management? At least two of their stations that we know of have done this with that particular picture. And if they are truly sorry, then they and the parent company need to take action against whoever did it. Of course, that's wishful thinking.
