  1. Here is more from this. This is completely redone with the Steelers Communications team taken over and KDKA-TV isn't shown at all in this package.
  2. Here is ALL of the Graphics Packages from Tonight.
  3. This is why Hearst is my favorite owner of all the TV News Companies. I'm also glad to have a local Hearst station in my area as well (WTAE).
  4. WDRB in 2022 from Louisville Kentucky. One of the last small owners in the Television industry. Their other biggest property is the Pittsburgh Post Gazette newspaper.
  5. The message NBC is sending with this move is that MSNBC is now a Political Network (Like FOX News Channel) and not a news network anymore. That is the only reason I can see for NBC doing this (show actual news on the NBC Broadcast network/NBC News Now and show Political coverage on MSNBC only). That actually makes sense if NBC were to do that. It can coexist if it is done this way. Also, to be fair, the FOX broadcast network special reports (along with LiveNow) are much more down the middle then the Fox News Channel and they coexist. Maybe NBC is seeing that too and is doing the same thing.
  6. Watch Tim's Final Newscasts HERE: 5 PM : https://www.newson.us/clips/195/31025208 5:30 PM : https://www.newson.us/clips/195/31025209 6PM : https://www.newson.us/clips/195/31025210 https://wjactv.com/news/local/signing-off-longtime-wjac-news-anchor-tim-rigby-broadcasts-final-newscast
  7. I fixed it. Thanks for the correction.
  8. Well said. I'm guessing that Comcast wants to make MSNBC a full political channel (similar to Fox but in the other direction) and use this as a "Real News" alternative. If they were that concerned about Chris Jansing, she would be part of this "NBC News Daily". I also believe that many affiliates could also lose Kelly Clarkson to other stations as well (WPXI lost Kelly to WTAE for example). I wish they would have just given this spot back to the affiliates.
  9. I'm surprised they got rid of Days for more news, I guess there has been too many break ins with Special Reports (and to compete with GMA3) that NBC just said ok, we will do this. I also wonder if this means we will see more local newscasts on some affiliates as well at 3 PM ET.
  10. This is the 11 PM Newscast from July 31st, 2022. I miss John Young.
  11. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2022/7/31/gone-in-altoona Matt Alvarez is gone from WTAJ Altoona and former WUSA Meteorologist Howard Bernstein will be the new main anchor on August 22nd. Big market drop for Bernstein.
  12. WJAC's Tim Rigby is retiring on August 4th. https://wjactv.com/news/local/wjac-tv-anchor-tim-rigby-announces-retirement
  13. I have edited the list and removed WJZY from it. All of the other ones I'm sure are correct unless anyone else can prove otherwise.
  14. The CW logo need to be gold along with the rest of the package (that is my only complaint). KDKA-TV'S balck and gold look has grown on me and I still hope when the new CBS O&O package launches, that they keep it.
  15. For now. WPCW (KDKA-TV's sister station) still has the 2020 KDKA look. Thank goodness.
  16. Look who joined the rest of the country in airing the January 6th committee hearing today. Hi NewsNation.
  17. What it looked like across the News Networks of America. All ABC, NBC, CBS, and PBS Stations aired this. You can see Fox News Channel, Newsmax, and OAN didn't take the Committee meeting. These Fox Affilates DID NOT air the Jan 6 Committee Hearing Tonight (when I checked at 8 PM). @David Salter JR @C Block KTVI St Louis MO WDAF Kansas City MO KVVU Las Vegas NV (Airing Local News) KSWB San Diego CA (Airing Local News) WJW Cleveland OH KCIT Amarillo TX KFOX El Paso TX WXXV Gulfport MS KOKH Oklahoma City OK KFXA Cedar Rapids IA KBVU Eureka CA WUTV Buffalo NY KABB San Antonio TX WFLX West Palm Beach FL KDVR Denver CO KMSS Shreveport LA WUPW Toledo OH KTXL Sacramento CA WGGB Springfield MA KCYU Yakima WA WVBT Hampton Roads VA WBFF Baltimore MD WRGT Dayton OH WPGH Pittsburgh PA WFXG Augusta GA WXTX Columbus GA WXIN Indianapolis IN WTAT Charleston WV KMPH Fresno CA WLUK Green Bay WI WDKY Lexington KY KSAS Wichita KS These are the stations I can confirm. There may be more. ALL Of the FOX Owned and Operated Stations DID play the Special Report Tonight.
  18. Yes. In 2009, it was a massive failure.
  19. There is no way this would last on CW/My stations owned by CBS with CBS O&Os with actual news departments. Do they really want to go the same route that Sinclair did with News Central. I don't want to see another WPGH situation again.
  20. Nexstar could buy them as Mission Broadcasting stations. Scripps is also against the cap. My point was that if TEGNA became Standard, Cox merged with Standard, and then Hearst merged with Cox. Orlando (and many other places) will have new owners with an O&O or someone like Allen or someone else expanding their reach to fill in the gaps.
  21. I forgot about that. I fixed it with Nexstar. I had ONE misstep and you want to jump down my throat on it. Hearst's graphics hub can be moved to another station if needed. I'm sure WBAL-TV would want it.
  22. If Hearst and Cox merge, The biggest Conflicts would be Pittsburgh (WTAE over WPXI) , Boston (WCVB over WFXT [Fox could get this station back]), and Orlando (WFTV/WRDQ over WESH/WKCF) WPXI screams Nexstar. WFXT goes back to FOX WESH/WKCF also goes to Nexstar.
  23. Hearst could take all of the conflicts if they wanted too. Atlanta: Standard keeps WSB 2 (ABC), and Hearst takes WXIA 11 (NBC) WATL 36 (MNT) could go to either. Charlotte: Standard keeps WSOC 9 (ABC) & WAXN 64 (Ind.), Hearst takes WCNC 36 (NBC). Jacksonville: Hearst gets WTLV 12 (NBC) & WJXX 25 as an Independent (ABC goes to Graham's WJXT 4) Standard keeps WFOX 30 (Fox) & WJAX 47 (CBS). Seattle: Hearst takes KIRO 7 (CBS), Standard gets KING 5 (NBC) & KONG 16 (Ind.). Spokane won't be a problem due to COX selling KAYU -TV to Imagicomm Communications. Memphis: Standard keeps WHBQ 13 (Fox), Hearst gets WATN 24 (ABC) WLMT 30 (CW) could go to either. Hearst doesn't like FOX so that is why I avoided giving them any FOX stations.
