  1. Why would they suddenly oppose something that they don't oppose now? Why would they care in 2020? It's only a 1bil deal....not an 80bil deal like Time Warner / ATT. It's chump change. But i'm sure we all agree that anything can happen. Anything.
  2. Besides the obvious constitutional issues with the govt taking over a media company...by force... I guess the short answer to you question could be "Yes...anything is possible by 2020."... Realistically... The dems don't care about the deal...or they would have tried to stop it. Once the deal is done it's on to the next big deal. By 2020 this should be real old news. But as we have learned in the past year... Never say "No-way"....cuz we will all be wrong.
  3. If you have to "fly colors" during the July book...it's like saying ... "Ha, Ha...you had to go to summer school !!"... Totally embarrassing! All the other stations get to skate thru the summer with the May numbers...and YOU gotta work !!
  4. My favorite Nexstar News story of the week... http://www.bigcountryhomepage.com/news/main-news/creepy-shed-making-abilene-realtors-uncomfortable/769427954 So this is my shed... Graphic ripped off from ftvlive.com
  5. I promise to think of your sexyness when I count my profits from the sale. I could make at least 4 or 5 dollars when you factor my cut off the 300 thousand shares. Sin-Star will merge in 2019...just before the election.
  6. He's trying to get his "mast up"....(rimshot) That's a live truck joke kids...
  7. Another shocker is Scripps giving away cash in Tulsa, San Diego,PHX and God knows what other markets... During July. That indicates the May book was awful...the pits....dreadful.....in all those markets(DMA)
  8. So it's "The Was" on WEWS......whew.
  9. The test chart was worth the click... Yes Sinclair is low budget...yes they are typical weaselly goofs. I don't want them in my hood. But if I'm stuck with them, then I will watch and laugh at them just like I do with Scripps and whoever my flavor of the week is . At KBEX we keep all the office supplies under lock and key . People steal stuff, and it's a problem that has become 10 times worse over the last 10 years. We lock it up...just like we lock up the liquor. So much for trust. Are you as excited as I am about the first O.J. Simpson "Tweet" and Facebook post???
  10. In Mexico we call that "stringer video". Ole you bogan mate.
  11. For starters you have those 2 weeks of the Sundance that generates a bunch of cash for the area. if you are looking to do something hyper-local , it just might be worth it. Steady tourism...skiing, mountain biking....money. Heck you might be able to run Popeye cartoons, Law and Order reruns 50 weeks a year. Then you run 2 weeks of boutique Sundance programming for the rich fools. You would be programming for a transient population. Dream station....sign me up!
  12. My Grandma would have called that "re-gifting"... I say it's more like spreading Cooties.
  13. Holy Lee Iacocca... 9.8 % financing for a car???
  14. Lets get something real clear... I'm not a dem or a repub....I'm team USA. I'm not rightwing or leftwing. My politics don't matter to anyone...nobody cares. I think we both had our say...and it was directly related to TV. Myron has spunk... and I'm just bonkers. Politics and TV are directly related in many ways. It's a fine line keeping it civil and on topic. I try not to let it drag out into and endless thread. I hear what you are saying and I'm sure some others feel the same way. I will do my part in keeping it down as much as possible. One or two civil responses are acceptable as long as it does not spiral out of control. BTW... If I WAS "right" ... I would want Myron to be my "left".
  15. Fascism? Serious? Don't become too much of a victim now. Just take the cash...you know exactly that's the end game. Be a victim...collect cash.
  16. I'm talking about right now... What do you want? A cash payout for a little picture gaff? I didn't know who that guy was in the picture. Assuming I did is a racist conclusion on your part. next... You have assumed the "producer" was white....racist. How do you know it's not a black or Asian producer??? More assumptions of race??? BTW... I'm mixed race ...so I think I handle the truth.
  17. So how do you fix this 'wrong".. They already said sorry. Now what do you want ??? Cash?
  18. It can't just be a bad picture choice by a rookie producer? How does anyone know the pic was not automatically generated based on a few standard keywords? So since it's a Sinclair owned station then the mistake it racial in nature? What a crock of poo poo. I see a guy in handcuffs..who is not related to the story presented. It's a poor choice for a picture...nothing more.
  19. Great! Now the automation is racist ! Twice in the same show!!! Oh Pray tell! Heavens to mergatroid.. It's Trumps fault...JUST say it! No people...This is what happens when you have children working in a "profession" that requires "adult" supervision. This could have easily happened anywhere. But you guys can blame the boogie man and Trump and those pet hamsters of Barons that were in that meeting with the sexy russian layyyer...boris and pals...hitler...ftvlive.
  20. He used a computer made of wood.
  21. Those guys had fun doing it. It wasn't hokey...it was "flash"... Most of all...it was a good honest newscast.
  22. What a hoot! In the open we see Spencer "Adjusting" his mic...shuffles papers...and looks to the anchor to acknowledge that he is ready... 3,2,1 Launch!!! One little thing.. Ya see Spencer had been sitting down for the last 5 minutes or more...primping...getting pretty...so there was no rush. His scripts were already in the prompter... And that mic??? Well an "honest to God NABET union audio dude" had that mic affixed to Spencer minutes ago...the mic check was done, and there is no need to "adjust" that mic. In fact Spencer isn't really even supposed to touch that mic unless unless it burst into flames and eats him. Those are the union rules. Those late 60's early 1970's EWN opens were great..totally scripted opens. For a while the anchors used to make it look like they were just so hurried that they could barely make it to the set in time for the open, but that became risky as the talent was already hardwired to the set with dual lav mics and some primitive IFB's So they could only "run" so far.
  23. [quote name='rkolsen']So does WPVI occasionally do the whole weather balloon thing? Or was it more a promotional gimmick for "there goes that action news van" advertisement to say they went to space? [IMG]http://cdn.abclocal.go.com/content/wpvi/images/cms/1520278_800x450.jpg[/IMG] I'm sure @Eat News will report that KBEX has one where if Dan Dan the Relapse Man is wet it's raining or pissed himself; if he's sweating profusely he's going through withdrawal or there's a heat wave; if he's swaying there's a strong gust of wind, he's still withdrawaling or on meth; if he's shivering it's cold or still going through withdrawal (it's a bitch); and if he's blue he overdosed.[/QUOTE] Dan Dan... Is MOVing closer to your world...RKO. "Move".... Get it? He can't find his lampshade...but he had his shot of Jagger. [SIZE=2](Yes...it's a vintage original 1970's PVI mic flag)[/SIZE] [attachment=2710:name]
  24. It's opinion pieces on both sides. Both side are preaching doom and gloom. and..... Both are in the business to entertain and/or scare you....all for a profit. So enjoy!
  25. I love the stage manager "credit" she gave.
