    Unfortunately, there were no changes to Good Day on KMAX. They just moved the bug to the left side of the screen.

    Nexstar is acquiring WSNN-LD in Sarasota.

    I think it may be due to the successful culture WSVN has built through the decades in Miami/Fort Lauderdale. Many of their English-language rivals in the market have taken key elements from them or in the case of WPLG, flat out copied them completely.

    KTVT, KPIX and KPRC all cut their 4:30am newscasts during the pandemic.

    WGEM is next for GrayOne.
  7. Georgie56
    They should continue that. It‘s regularly beating WTXF’s 10pm in the ratings.

    Looks like Licht is giving Kaitlan Collins 9pm.

    Translation: WPHL, WTTA, and KRON.

    Also, those new indies in CBS O&O markets may add additional newscasts beyond the hybrid NOW franchise. KPIX started a 7-9 expanded morning newscast for KBCW back in September, and WLNY and WPSG are simulcasting 7am streaming newscasts from WCBS and KYW, respectively.

    Here’s what Wendy McMahon had to say about programming these new (and possibly existing) independents in the Deadline piece: Sounds like there’s a new game plan in the works for the CBS independent stations that isn’t just tired court shows.

    The KMAX and WPSG situations are easy. KQCA and WPHL. Mind you, the latter is a MyNetwork affiliate owned by Nexstar.

    Dakota News Now reporter Austin Goss has been fired and charged for making a crank call in January to Gov. Kristi Noem’s office.

    NBCLX is shutting down.

    I guess Chicago is enough of a channel number market to warrant keeping the 2. Although I have no idea why they're using their 2 in the intro and the WCBS 2 in the bug.

    If no payment by Friday, the Reds will be the first to abandon Bally Sports.

    Dana Bash replacing John King on Inside Politics.

    Samantha Rivera’s replacement is Ruthie Polinsky from WTVJ. Turns out there was a Chicago-Miami sportscaster trade.

    WBBM is gearing up.

    They’re wasting no time trying to lure the recently fired Don Lemon and Tucker Carlson to NewsNation.

    If today’s news out of FNC wasn’t enough:

    They might be wanting to debut them with the rechristened streetside studio, whenever it debuts.
  23. Georgie56
    I’m thinking CBS News Chicago is in the future for WBBM, as “CBS 2 News” doesn’t have much history in Chicago. I also think they’ll dump channel number and do the call-letter box.
  24. Georgie56
    WFOR’s GM is retiring.
  25. Georgie56
    WLS IIRC, also does a live preview (usually with Tracy Butler and Michael Strahan) during the 5am hour of their morning newscast.
