  1. So they’re keeping Bravo, which they see as important programming aspect of peacock, but will dump everything else. I see this being extremely complicated from an operations perspective. MSNBC, CNBC, and NBC News are all tightly interconnected when it comes to programming and news gathering. USA Network is tightly connected with NBC Sports for sports programming. Then there’s the olympics, where NBC uses its cable channels (USA, E!, CNBC, and golf channel) to air coverage. If you separate NBC Sports from USA and NBC News from CNBC and MSNBC you’re severely impacting both the “strong” NBC operation and the “weak” cable operation
  2. Chris Wallace will leave cnn https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/chris-wallace-exit-cnn-1236207062/
  3. Bally Sports could still sign new deals with MLB teams, the teams will just have to accept less money (and they’ll have to be comfortable being in business with Bally Sports going forward)
  4. And with that the Raycom package is no more.
  5. Sinclair considering selling 30% of its station portfolio plus the Tennis channel https://www.cnbc.com/2024/05/09/sinclair-explores-selling-30percent-of-broadcast-stations.html
  6. Launching a new RSN in 2024 - this can only go poorly
  7. Only took a year and a half to be resolved.
  8. New cnn boss looking to cut anchor salaries as part of savings https://www.thewrap.com/cnn-looks-to-slash-budgets-star-salaries-as-mark-thompson-digs-in/
  9. I do see your point. However I would argue that CNN has failed in the mornings for 20 years and so maybe the lighter flair of Robin would have led to something more successful than what CNN has been doing. I’m sure robin could be serious if the situation called for it.
  10. They could have saved so much headache if they just moved Robin Meade to CNN instead of letting her go.
  11. a reminder that Cox has been in dispute with dish since October 2022. Don’t expect a quick settlement
  12. Dish has dropped KASW. I can only assume this is because Scripps wanted higher retrans fees for the station now that they carry Coyotes games and Dish told them to take a hike.
  13. yeah - the talent opens aren't that good. The transitions don't match the music and it's too busy / crowded. Why WABC insists on holding onto them I'll never know. They did the same thing with their 2012 package, butcher a good open by cramming talent shots into the open.
