  1. Unless WGNO wants to expand the News With A Twist format to 5pm, yes
  2. Only if WGNO had the option not to air World News Tonight maybe they'd be able to replace that and the 5pm newscast with Maury
  3. Why would WSMV/WNEM ruin the O&O looks like that? I mean the graphics looks good but the fonts on BOTH stations looks terrible imo
  4. KFOR just announced a new partnership with Air Comfort Solutions (which has former KWTV Chief Meteorologist Gary England in the promos), it's now branded as "Air Comfort Solutions Chopper 4" http://kfor.com/2018/04/09/chopper-4-is-vital-to-covering-oklahoma-storms-new-partnership-between-kfor-air-comfort-solutions-announced/
  5. And that's too bad because people that have dropped cable deserves better than that. I think the only time WTTG/WBFF will pick up games involving either the Nationals, Orioles or the combination of the two is if one or both teams appear on Fox's Baseball Night in America other than that, that'll be the only time Antenna/Streaming-only viewers will be able to watch either the Nationals, Orioles, or both.
  6. WKYC (1997 after the Cleveland Indians lost in 7 Games to the Florida Marlins) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=0XT3ROA-3jg;t=259
  7. We'll see what happens with the 2nd reason but I think it may very well be the 1st one and that the KOMO News Director caved into Sinclair's demands
  8. Some more KFOR clips, this time from 1993, Linda Cavanaugh providing a News Update
  9. I got to see some clips of the Turko Files via YouTube of KUSI's newscasts and it was pretty entertaining... To say the least
  10. Which is good because neither one of those Nexstar website names makes any sense, so I think that's one of the changes that we've seen out of Nexstar post-MG merger but still got a long way to go but, it's baby steps that we're taking
  11. Sounds like Sinclair put someone at the former Fisher stations in charge and decided "we need to air the must runs during the evening newscasts instead of the overnights"
  12. I had a friend of mine on Facebook who happens to live not too far from Grand Rapids (not saying his name though) showed me the new WOOD TV website and it looks pretty nice for a Nexstar. Thankfully, WOOD didn't drop "woodtv.com" for "westmichigan.com" "westmichiganlocal.com" (however Nexstar names their websites)
  13. CBS North Carolina never really sounded right anyway because it was just too bland (this was the branding WNCN should've went to when they switched to CBS in 2015)
  14. Essentially WNCN just copied the WSPA logo
  15. Yikes! Hope the driver is alright
  16. So basically KTEN is hiring a Meteorologist who will ultimately suceed Mitchell as their Chief Meteorologist if I'm reading correctly
  17. I wonder if Alan Mitchell retired? That may be why KTEN has an opening for the Chief Meteorologist job
  18. It's a good question and I would venture out and say yes but let's wait and see what WKYC and WJW does (especially WJW) before I can give you a straight answer (besides that any discussion about the other Cleveland-area stations can be discussed elsewhere)
  19. That's true but Nexstar is improving and all it needed was the Media General purchase for it to transform the company
  20. I think it's a mix of both TEGNA having ties to KTTU/KMSB and the fact that Raycom operates it. It's an indicator that KMSB/KTTU is a Raycom station, for the most part while KOLD is a TEGNA station, for the most part
  21. It seems as if Media General bought Nexstar and not the other way around because if you notice not only did the former MG stations retain their websites but the executives of Media General (and LIN before Media General acquired LIN) has taken over Nexstar. I actually think that Nexstar has changed for the better post-Media General merger and I hope the existing Nexstar stations (including the legacy stations) do away with "localhomepage.net"
  22. Isn't KB is a Journal station turned into a Scripps station?
  23. And the same can be said about the iGen people, but I like to get local news on Television (at a convienient time) and get Sports News/Highlights on CBS Sports HQ instead of ESPN plus national news on CBSN instead of Fox News, CNN and MSNBC
  24. Which does makes sense because that's what Scripps is trying to do is get the younger viewers watching their shows and their content (Which I'm glad Scripps is at least trying even though it may be "cheap")
  25. KJRH, KSHB, KERO, WFTX, WMAR and WKBW all don't air The Now
