Sinclair Broadcast Group - General Discussion

Going to start calling duopolies "Soup Olives" now. That's an amazing autocorrect. WRDC is the ATSC3.0 lighthouse for Raleigh. Sinclair only has one ATSC1.0 station, WLFL. -
I’ve been watching WBAL today (I don’t have any reason otherwise to watch Baltimore news). WBAL is a really good news operation. Polished reporters and some veterans who I can tell still know the art.

Regarding WBOC being dropped: Breezeline says it’s about not wanting to pay two affiliates. https://policyband.com/blog/spokesman--breezeline-dropped-cbs-affiliate-wboc-to-manage-costs Significantly Viewed does still exist but this is the reason most providers are dropping duplicate affiliates.

They were in the parking lot of the sheriff’s office and it took the officers an hour and a half to get there? Either that’s an incredibly poorly written story or there’s an even bigger story to be done about Clayton County SO.

The Ever-Evolving Gray Graphics Situation...Thread

I just noticed that WITN has updated their bug and website to remove the peacock. Still using the same old turquoise/blue/whatever graphics package. -
Job hopping for more money. Just like anyone else. Historically they get 2 year contracts and keep moving up in market rank for career growth.

That open reminds me a lot of the old Raycom package.
-
FCC has no jurisdiction over what airs on cable channels.
-
The branding reminds me of WNCN's ill fated "CBS North Carolina" phase.
-
I like the logo. It's unique and perfect for an app icon. And I assume that's what they were going for.

The Disney channels are back on Dish. That was a very short lived dispute by Dish standards.
-
Only the eight O&O markets are affected as far as ABC.

I've been a Dish subscriber for many years but I think I'm about done. IMO Dish is playing with fire here and getting a lot of customers that otherwise may have just stayed customers out of momentum to explore streaming services.
