  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. I haven't seen Kelly without glasses before.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. Does Sinclair use ARC branding in any other markets other than Seattle & West Michigan?
  14. Glad to see that Lara Velazquez is still in the business even if it is just in freelance for WLWT.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. I'm not surprised Nexstar is suing the FCC as they should since the 3 on The FCC abuse their power way too much thinking that it is still the 1960s which it isn't with the outdated rules that need to be fixed. Broadcasters are facing Big Tech since the days of 3 to 4 channels are over and the FCC acts like there isn't any competition when there clearly is with Big Tech. The 3 on The FCC don't get it and don't like business at all which isn't right.
  18. I also liked Kelly as well all the best wherever she is going next.
  19. I don't get why Scripps even does news for Fox47 out in Lansing that should be Fox17 doing the newscast for WSYM for Fox47 never should've gotten rid of Gray doing the news for Fox47 a few years ago. Fox47 met Brad does the weather for Fox47 at Fox17 studios.
  20. I hope that person was fired WTF how does someone approve that photo I wouldn't have shameful what KGW-TV did do better.
  21. I knew that Judge Judy repeats were going to be renewed although quite surprised that TEGNA wasn't named in the article about this renewal they weren't mentioned either for Judy Justice either. Who The Bleep Is That isn't going to get a second season that was only in a handful of TV markets largely in the big markets a few smaller/midsize markets like in West Michigan at the start of the new year. Crime Stories is being pitched for syndication for the 2024-05 season hosted by former Access Hollywood & ET anchor Nancy O'Dell always liked Nancy.
  22. Geraldo going to do specials on UFO's although seems that NewsNation has stopped the UFO specials. Or maybe he'll go and try to find Al Capone's vault once again like he did when he had a trashy talk show LOL. Geraldo shouldn't have been fired over at Fox News.
  23. Scripps cut the weekend morning Met's job Isbella Hulsizer a few weeks ago at Fox17.
  24. Has any TV station group taken Investigate TV or is this only Gray TV stations in the markets they are in. I know Gray said that they would be selling it to TV stations that wanted to air Investigate TV, I guess no takers for that cheap show.
  25. Laura Velazques moved to Denver after working many years in West Michigan Wood TV for KDVR she only lasted a year in Denver. And Laura moved to become a met at ACCUWeather she is suing them because they laid her off during COVID then she returned to West Michigan to work for Fox17 for about 6 or 7 months and left in Oct of 2021. Rumors are that she in the ND didn't get along they were co-workers at Wood TV why Lara didn't last long at Fox17. I saw former WWMT weekend met Brian James doing the weather from time to time for Wood TV when Ellen was off since she just had a baby. Brian James didn't last all that long with WWMT I think his wife didn't like the weather or had issues because they moved back to Texas. Brian is from Michigan his parents got to see him do the weather. I wonder if that is what Brian will be doing for the smaller Nexstar TV stations around the country doing those tape weather segments.
