  1. I saw a promo on WEWS in Cleveland saying that "Pickler and Ben" moving to 10am starting on Monday, March 5th. "Steve" (Steve Harvey's latest talk show) is moving to the 3pm slot that "Pickler" had been occupying since September of last year.

  2. There's a station in the Cleveland-Akron market that is for sale, according to TVNewsCheck:

     

    CLEVELAND, OHIO CLASS A TV FOR SALE

    Excellent market coverage of over 2.5 million people in the Cleveland DMA, including the urban and suburban areas of Cleveland and Akron. Pre-repack Ch. 16. Post-repack Ch. 27. 15KW at 1000ft in the Cleveland Antenna Farm. New transmission equipment. Contact Bill Klaus at 330-671-3351 or [email protected]

  3. Dani Carlson, investigative reporter at WOIO, is taking a job in Cleveland outside of local news at Community Solutions as the director of communications and digital strategy.

  4. WSB had Action News since the 1970s nope nope nope.

     

    I should have clarifyed that when I wrote Action News, I should have asked if WGCL's news would become similar to WOIO when Doerr was running its news department.

  5. Doerr at least had some success at WOIO (alongside Bill Applegate) but that might not be the best comparison to make.

     

    Speaking of Doerr, could CBS46 become 46 Action News?

  6. Which GM at WGCL has had the longest tenure there since the switch to CBS? Just curious.

     

    Andy Alford served four years at WGCL as GM. There could be a longer-served GM before him.

  7. God so we have Kenneth The Page as the next man up at WBNS...Oh good god no!

     

    Guess what, WCMH... It looks likes there might be a NEW worst station and NEW icon for me coming soon!

     

    Could WBNS go across town to replace Ravish?

  8. I believe that has been the case in most of her past postions. I was shocked she got the job in Atlanta, considering how terrible she was in St. Louis.

     

    The current ND at WGCL worked with Sharon over at WOIO/WUAB. (Ironically, two of the anchors at WGCL - Mike Dunston and Alicia Roberts - both worked together at WEWS in Cleveland on "Good Morning Cleveland.") I have a feeling they'll continue what they were trying to achieve at 19/43.

  9. MyNetworkTV is pointless nowadays. The programs on its lineup can easily air in syndication over-the-air and on cable. Originally, it was a response to the WB-UPN merger, and hooking up with stations that weren't carrying the then-new CW. Then, the shows that originally when the network started bombed. (Remember the bad English versions of the Spanish soap operas?) Now it's just nothing but reruns. The whole primetime lineup keeps getting pushed to later and later timeslots in several markets, including Cleveland (where it went from 8-10pm, to 11pm-1am, then 12-2am, now 12:30am-2:30am). I think in 2020, it should be put out of the TV industry's misery, or maybe merge with ION.
