  1. It will be a subchannel that is what they did with WOTV DT2 when they took The CW in West Michigan from Sinclair that is what will happen with Norfolk VA in my opinion. Not surprised after 8 years that The CW is coming home to WGN since they don't have the Cubs, White Sox, Bulls, or Blackhawks anymore that was the reason they went back to being independent.
  2. Amy's bio is still up at Fox Weather Website wouldn't they have scrubbed it if she is leaving Fox Weather or if the contract wasn't renewed. When they leave a place they don't really say other than thank you or leaving because of family the media companies are always hush, hush, hush, & mum about it got to love the commutations business NOT LOL.
  3. I wonder if Scripps finds a buyer for Bounce if Bounce will be leaving their subchannels for good or if they will keep it. WXMI Fox17 has Bounce on DT3 wish they kept Court TV on DT3 put Bounce on WZPX DT's in my opinion. Bounce was on Wood TV DT2 from 2013 to 2021 as LIN TV, Media General, & Nexstar aired the Scripps diginets before they bought Fox17 in the Nexstar & Tribune merger in 2019.
  4. I agree with Brandon Carr on this deal, I wasn't surprised that what The FCC put conditions on the deal which I thought that The FCC had to agree with the deal at hand and not make changes or just outright reject the deal or let it expire. Like Standard General & TEGNA merger last year at this time.
  5. I thought that CBSMV didn't want Judy Justice on the same TV stations that signed for with Judy Justice? Guess that was just a rumor only and not true.
  6. I remember that WZZM had a fast slide from Detroit they took it from WXYZ it was a couple of years ago when Scripps owns Fox17 in West Michigan. I'm guessing because WZZM is ABC and WXYZ is ABC they got the ok to air that story and maybe Fox17 wasn't going to air that story on their newscast. Wood TV has aired a story from time to time from WDIV.
  7. Sincalir WWMT DT3 was Comnet when it first launched in West Michigan in 2015 then in 2021 Comnet moved to WXSP DT3 after Scripps took all the Diginets in house on Sep 1 2021. WWMT DT3 became TBD they never put Charged on WWMT subchannel was on WXMI DT4 for a couple of years and was dropped for GetTV in Feb 2021, as Nexstar decided to take Dabl for WOTV DT2 now DT4 as GetTV was on WOTV before it was moved to WXMI Fox17 DT5. Just like the Stadium/Nest being WXSP DT2 last year over Cozi TV.
  8. Since they have until Sep 1 to get The CW on those other cities that Scripps dumped The CW for independent. I think they can get The CW in those markets even if it is a subchannel. Detroit I think if you don't make up with Kevin WDIV is the only option on a subchannel in my opinion.
  9. Glad you are back I thought it was just me getting the problems seem like everyone was having problems. Glad their fix now and back online.
  10. I haven't seen Kelly without glasses before.
  11. Not surprised that Sherri will be back I thought it be renewed. I think as along as Fox O&O keep Sherri in their lineups it will be on for years like Wendy Williams was in my opinion.
  12. I didn't know Spectrum has it I may have to see if it is in the lineup could be in the in 484 which use to be Circle I didn't have Circle though since the channel 485 to 488 is the Byron Allens low rated cable networks. Along with StartTV & Story as well.
  13. I don't know maybe the owners want to double dip and just take the money. The only one in West Michigan that has double network channels is Dibal it is on WLLA DT6 & WOTV DT4 which was DT2 before Nexstar took The CW for DT2.
  14. I thought that Kelly was from FL I didn't know she was from NE best of luck to her wherever she is forecasting with in NE state.
  15. The viewers lose no matter what it isn't going to bring back competition what you will is Apollo like that don't care for local news other than the $$$ is all. And Apollo has run Cox Media into the ground or Byron Allen buying TV stations I don't see it as good news it's lose lose no matter what. The FCC still thinks it's the 60s and not 2024 as broadcast has a lot of competition mainly big tech which the FCC doesn't seem to get. I'm guessing that you could see more brokerage deals with Nexstar or Sinclair if sidecars go away they will still have their grip on things as well. That is how I see it in my opinion.
  16. Yeah, surprised that Sinclair even has a website for ARC WM it is just news from WWMT should just show the schedule with the main channel only doesn't need a website in my opinion. Looks like what Nexstar does with WOTV & now the new CW under more on the wood TV website with the info and that video with what will be on The CW tonight and the other 7 nights of primetime.
  17. I don't see Nexstar/Mission fighting for Detroit Kevin Adell blew it just like blowing that CBS deal in 94.
  18. Marissa wants to ease back in or maybe wants to do mornings to be home with family during the nights. I knew Marissa was coming back in March.
  19. Does Sinclair use ARC branding in any other markets other than Seattle & West Michigan?
  20. Glad it came back I didn't pay to be a +member since I don't really need that extra stuff that I could find on some other website for free.
  21. Glad to see that Lara Velazquez is still in the business even if it is just in freelance for WLWT.
  22. Also seems that the staff at Scripps don't know what Kate will do thinking they will keep the Scrippscasts which were DOA from the start, if I was the CEO it be a fat NO on the Scrippscast.
  23. CW-WMI Sunday no ACC Women's Basketball or LIV Golf Heartland at 12PM to 1PM & First 48 will be in a 3 hour block as it was a 2-hour block before that.
  24. A lot of those switches were CW+ The CW West Michigan is just repeats from WOTV, Wood TV, & WXSP in syndication with a few syndication being their own.
  25. Yup, Kevin Adell screwed it why he needs Jesse Jackson to speak, although I'm surprised that Mission didn't drop the sale as of yet is Nexstar just running the clock out until May when the deal becomes dead?
