Bizarre. Heartless. Sickening. Cruel.

Interesting thread I found yesterday on how the new Around The Horn works.

Dang.

The WHDH-to-WBTS situation happened because of Ed Ansin's long-running feud with NBC. Hard to see that happening with KSL or KCRA, especially since the latter is a strong NBC affiliate.

SportsCenter has gone back to its roots because they “miscalculated a little bit”. https://www.courant.com/sports/olympics/ct-spt-espn-sports-center-changes-20181205-story.html

Terrell’s getting another shot at the network. He’s doing a report on GMA this morning.

Here’s the old intro and outro to TBN’s Praise The Lord. Growing up, seeing my mom watch this, I had no idea these graphics go all the way back to 1992! They sure looked good for that year and aged well into the late 2000s.

Yeah, more like the last few weeks. Been seeing promos with the new name during Jeopardy. Also, they are now the second media outlet in Dallas with a highway sign logo. The other?

Somebody finally uploaded this. A WGN Illinois Lottery drawing from 2001, the beginning of the “Players Have More Fun” era, with Dean Richards at the helm. That “la-la-la” jingle brings back memories.

After WFAA dumped them in 2005 for “skewing too old”. Still upset at them for doing that. Wheel is beating Entertainment Tonight in Dallas amongst 18-49 year olds, as well.

I've seen no indication that WPLG is about to dump the Sony game shows. If it happens, WFOR would be likely to pick them up. WSVN is not cancelling Deco Drive for Wheel or J!.

CNN has fired contributor Marc Lamont Hill after he made anti-Israel comments at the United Nations.

Contract buyouts are coming. https://www.robertfeder.com/2018/11/26/robservations-tribune-media-offers-buyouts-wgn-staff/

Presenting... Maury's first-ever DNA show from 1998! Notice the lack of booing the denier when she comes out and the lack of bleeps every 5 seconds.

Guess management felt Wheeler was a better fit for afternoons.

So, a standard TEGNA morning newscast.

I bet POTUS has a different opinion on local journalists than national journalists.

Well, that’s one way of telling corporate the news vans need a new paint job.

I bet Dean Richards must be having the best night of his life right now in that tank.

I tuned in late at 7:15 (live stream). It feels so weird watching them at night.

The next Morning News primetime special is set for Nov. 14 at 7pm.

That would be the most logical decision, since The CW is on KHON-DT2 in Honolulu. Wider audience for the network in Hawaii by moving it to or having a shared affiliation with KFVE.

Wow. Who blacks out a premium network, especially the biggest one of them all? Charlie Ergen is just the worst.
