This makes sense as WMTW & WPXT are currently roommates, yet aren't duopolies not allowed in Portland, ME. Should this go through, would Sinclair acquire WPFO?

KTEN says farewell to Chief Meteorologist Alan Mitchell http://www.kten.com/clip/14454708/kten-says-farewell-to-chief-meteorologist-alan-mitchell

I wonder how long Kevin & Kent last at KFOR after Sinclair takes over.

Leaving to escape Sinclair! Sound about right.

The question should be whether Air Comfort Solutions Chopper 4 survives the station's ownership change whether it be Sinclair or someone else.

What is with these Conservative commentators wanting to harm a survivor of mass murder?

In Oklahoma City, all the major media outlets, KFOR (Tribune), KOCO (Hearst), KWTV (Griffin), KOKH (Sinclair), The Oklahoman, and the radio stations are launching United Voice Oklahoma to promote a healthy dialogue on race relations in Oklahoma.

I would believe that the order in El Paso would be KVIA (NPG) followed by everyone else, Sinclair and Nexstar.

At least we forget the short lived career of KVIA Meteorologist, now gay gogo dancer, Stephen "Gay Gringo" Decatur.

As I said in the MLB Thread, the National need to somehow find a way to get off of MASN and onto NBC Sports Washington, where they would have a chance to get games OTA via WRC and in market streaming. The Nationals have been treated badly by the Orioles since they moved from Montreal in 2005. As for MASN, is it me, or are they the Nexstar of RSNs?

Meredith is apparently selling Time, Fortune, SI, and laying off 1,200 employees in the process. I am posting this as they've been rumored to be in the running to purchase station in the Sinclair-Tribune divestiture, should the transaction obtain final approval from Washington.

NewsCenter Maine appears to be a Maine Corporation as the name appears in suit that they've filed against the (Maine) Department of Health & Human Services for access to files in an ongoing child abuse case. http://www.newscentermaine.com/article/news/local/news-center-maine-files-lawsuit-against-dhhs-demands-access-to-child-case-files/97-529918377

Not yet, Mitchell is still on the air.

KTEN, DMA 160, has a posting for their Chief Meteorologist position. The reason I post this is because it appears that the successful candidate will be succeeding long time CM Alan Mitchell, who has been with the station since 1995.

As per Our Maine, the current WPME intellectual unit, except Ion, will move to WPXT's spectrum on March 22. As per RabbitEars, the lineup will look like this: WPXT - RF 43 -> 34 51.1 WPXT CW 51.2 Me TV 51.3 WPME - from 35.1 51.4 Escape - from 51.3 51.5 Laff from 35.2 New Call Sign RF 35 -> 24 35.1 Ion - from 35.2 35.2 Qubo 35.3 Ion Life 35.4 Ion Shop 35.5 QVC 35.6 HSN Source: Any Ion Station

It appears that Jackson, WY, which is in Idaho Falls-Poctallo DMA, is taking action against Charter Spectrum regarding their prolonged dispute with Northwest Broadcasting, who owns their NBC station KPVI. This dispute cost many in Jackson to miss the Super Bowl and Olympics. http://www.jhnewsandguide.com/news/town_county/town-launches-action-against-spectrum/article_545497e3-858e-5888-a553-b10dc75d06ee.html Similar action is being taken in Yuma, AZ regarding Charter Spectrum's blackout of KYMA & KSWT there. https://www.pressreader.com/usa/yuma-sun/20180208/281492161772084

In addition to ABC, ESPN would handle most of the coverage. Do you want to see Mike and Jamielle hosing Primetime coverage? #BECAREFULWHATYOUWISHFOR

It's America's performance, or lack thereof.

I have attached this map of Arkansas showing each county in relation to their DMA. There are 7 DMAs within The Natural State and are as follows: Purple: Memphis - DMA 50 Magenta: Little Rock - DMA 58 Brown: Springfield, MO - DMA 75 Green: Texarkana - DMA 83 Blue: Fort Smith - DMA 98 Pink: El Dorado - DMA 137 Red: Jonesboro - DMA 182 As for the Fort Smith DMA, in addition to the Arkansas Counties, it does spill over into Le Flore & Sequoyah Counties in Oklahoma. As a matter of fact, KHBS' stick is located near Poteau, Oklahoma.

There is one other station, KQCK RF 11 currently owned by the Christian Television Network. The drawback is that this station's stick is in Fort Collins and targets Denver. I wonder if anyone would have the guts to purchase this station and move it into Wyoming.

The only companies that would be capable of making this work are Gray and Sinclair as they appear to have the most invested in the region. Here's what I see this working: NBC: KNOP & KNEP would become satellites of KSNB with Western Nebraska centric commercials and newscasts. CBS: The KOTA simulcast is replaced by a satellite of KOLN on the Sidney sick. ABC: The KSTF sick is potentially acquired by Sinclair and used as a satellite for KHGI. FOX: As with the other KHGI stations, KFXL would join the Scottsbluff stick, taking the FOX affiliation from KIIT. I can see under this scenario, this can end Western Nebraska's dependence on Denver with Scotts Bluff & Cherry joining the newly enlarged DMA.

IDK, you need to take that one up with Nielsen. I used a Nielsen map I found on a Google search. Nebraska is not much better as seen here. The Red is Scotts Bluff County, the Denver Counties are in Orange, Cherry County is in the Sioux Falls, SD DMA while the Sioux City, IA Counties are in Purple.

Since we're talking about television on Wyoming, I made this color coded map showing which TV market each county is currently assigned. Key: Red = Cheyenne DMA 197 Green = Casper DMA 198 Orange = Denver DMA 17 Blue = Rapid City DMA 170 Purple = Billings DMA 167 Gold = Idaho Falls DMA 162 Pink = Salt Lake City DMA 30 The reason I made this is to see whether the Cheyenne and Casper should merge to create one Wyoming centric market. I just wonder if it's feasible for the Denver market counties to be annexed to create such a market. Don't get me started on Sheridan County being an exclave of the Rapid City DMA, or that the Cheyenne is an emclave of the Denver DMA.

As of the time of this reply, the image is still up on Williams' web site of the station he hoped to acquire.

Will Legacy Broadcasting continue to run these Wyoming stations as is? The reason why I'm asking is that if you review their profile, all their stations were picked up from a Gray garage sale and are now running that H&I, or some other, junk.
