So it looks like its buying a station with very not much news and a station that is the only CBS in the state that doesn't air news. My god. Weren't Frontier, the same folks who owned WGXA 24 in Macon until sold to Sinclair in 2014?

The story in this video doesn't matter but the open does. I keep looking for this open because I like the music cut in this particular open and also because the NMSA doesn't have it yet. Behold... News 12 Long Island (which btw, you can watch for free now, along with the other News 12 channels):

I already mentioned this before, but it's official... I've made it! Check out the H/T at the end. I never thought that such a kind of blog like mines would end up in a site quite like this one: http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/wxxv-adds-3rd-newscast-in-6-months/162850

And she's now at WITI 6 in Milwaukee.

WSAZ has the best open from this list. I don't care if that was 2002, WSAZ is still amazing and that music was on point.

Whoops. My bad! But I think that was wrong for Disney/ABC to do. Millionaire is no good anymore and it wasn't as good as it once was when Regis and Meredith were hosting. Ratings continue to fall and now you got a host exodus on that show because before, it was just Regis and Meredith and ever since she left, its Cedric the Entertainer, Terry Crews and Chris Harrison. Now I'm confident that WWTBAM will be canceled after next season.

I don't think Millionaire is coming back for another season after this one. The show is being downgraded to overnights, just like Meredith. In reality, wherever its being shown in daytime, possibly around the noon, 4 or 7pm timeslots, they can replace it with local news.

I liked that package too... "24-Hour News," when it was used on KRON and I believe longer on WKRC.

According to Wikipedia, viewers liked the quirky name while they were trying to find a permanent name. Therefore its been "LIVE at 5:00 at 4:00" every since.

They have used that name "LIVE at 5:00 at 4:00" since the program was moved to the 4:00pm timeslot in 2008.

I used to watch Brian and Mandy together all the time on Street Signs, now Power Lunch. I'll miss Mandy!

WSVN/Sunbeam and AT&T U-verse are at an impasse. If no agreement is made by Saturday at 12:00 Midnight, WSVN goes off the air on AT&T U-verse. DirecTV, DISH, Comcast and Atlantic Broadband, as well as FREE OTA, will continue to carry and receive WSVN.

Maybe they should change it to WNWU for Nobody Watches Us.

Wait, really? Wow. How late because the newscast debuted on Monday and yet waited till Thursday for that? Jeez. No wonder why WZVN is lacking in ratings. I agree. If I lived in New Orleans, I would watch WWL/WUPL and then watch WDSU and WVUE if WWL/WUPL ain't on. For WGNO, never. Again, they're a joke. WDSU is great, since I like Hearst but I also like Raycom so WVUE and is all right, even though Tom Benson is playing out all of his holdings in court. With WGNO, I don't know what they're doing anymore. "News with a Twist" sounds more like an awful Broadway production than a non-traditional newscast. For WWL, it's the house that Bill (Elder), Garland (Robinette), Dennis (Woltering) and Angela (Hill) built. You can't ignore WWL and even with ownership changes, they're just too good and I agree.

Sorry to double post... [MEDIA=twitter]686675595896438784[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]686681886769442817[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]686686807761752064[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]686691699280752645[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]687431010447929344[/MEDIA]

Here's how I would read that ad: No thank you. I don't wanna see the sometimes stupid, idiotic and "wasting my time" stuff and the failure that is News with a Twist. Instead, I rather see the seriousness and the great journalism that is Channel 4's Eyewitness News. Seriously, WGNO is a joke.

Reported a long time ago on my blog. WZVN is bringing back ABC 7 News at 5:30 but is keeping Extra at 5:00pm. The 5:30 news was canceled last year, only to have brought back this week.

Get ready for WGNO to shut down its news department. Everything that's going on there is failing for them.

Goodbye, Mega TV.

All right! This will make me watch WPIX 11 at 10pm.

TVSpy, TV News Check and FTVLive reported on this story today, but I was FIRST to report on this last month. It's set to debut Monday: [MEDIA=twitter]675474732582596608[/MEDIA]

More expansions in January, which will soon continue into February: [MEDIA=twitter]684426041813762048[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]684873563606749185[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]685259636459569152[/MEDIA]

But its somewhat relatable because eventually, Pete and those two will show up on NBC Boston as well.

I ask because I haven't seen a station in CST go for an hour-long, 7 nights a week at 10:00pm even though there are CST stations that do on both Saturdays and Sundays (KENS 5, KTBS 3, KMOV 4, etc.) plus in San Antonio, there's hour-long news at 10:00pm, 7 nights a week with KSAT 12 doing so on weeknights and KENS 5 doing so on weekends.
