I’d bet money that CNN Centers days are numbered. They already sold the property to a developer. Over time they’ll probably move any remaining cnn productions to the techwood drive property. Besides CNN International’s version of CNN Newsroom what shows air anchored in Atlanta anymore? https://apnews.com/article/ga-state-wire-fl-state-wire-atlanta-florida-health-c7e1f0b9f85ecb1203f4fa727701c3ac

Cox is now in dispute with dish https://www.tvtechnology.com/news/cox-stations-dropped-from-dish
-
I agree. I’ve never liked stations that use their “news brand” as an overall station brand (looking at you WFTS) I'm also not really sold on the name “Atlanta news first” - to me it seems too much like their failed clear news branding from 20 years ago.

WGCL made announcement on their website https://www.cbs46.com/2022/08/31/atlanta-news-first-coming-north-georgia/ I like how they claim they are the only locally owned station in the market (throwing shade at wsb and Cox)

Spurs open is the exact same as the Heat open. Again giving more credence to my suspicion that this is going to be the generic open for all sports coverage regardless of team and sport
-
There's also nothing special about the graphics tied to either the team or the sport. There is nothing in the open showing the Heat logo and you see the words "baseball", "hockey", and "basketball" displayed; along with things like a baseball diamond, a basketball court, and a what appears to be hockey rink faceoff circles.......this leads me to suspect that this is the generic open and theme to be used for all teams and sports. Which, if correct, is a major downgrade from the NBA, MLB, and NHL themes FSN used and also much blander than the custom team opens that FSN used as well

Kinda weird to be leaving a powerhouse like WSB for spectrum news.

Whenever I watch cbs46 (which isn't that often) I have to ask myself: "who are these people"? The turnover at the station is ridiculous. Meredith never gives the station management or talent time to implement a new strategy and let it grow. It's a constant cycle of rebrands and talent/management turnover. After years of Gannett/Tegna mismanaging WXIA, WGCL should be in a place to compete. But instead Meredith's impatience has led to no real significant gains in the ratings.
