Only Mynet TV Scripps own is WSYM .3 now.

They can make money with local news or NewsNation Morning since Nexstar owns it I see they do air NewsNation Morning News on select TV stations that Nexstar owns. Better use than paid programming.

I'm surprised that Nexstar doesn't add News Nation morning show on CW's & MyNet TV stations they own 3-hour block I looked at WXSP it is pretty much paid programming from 6AM to 9AM other Andy's Gospel Truth at 7:30AM. I have always been surprised that Nexstar has never wanted to complete with Fox17 morning news from 7AM to 9AM.

Does Scripps still air Newsfeed or did Scripps get rid of it I know Fox17 moved it to 4:30AM a few months ago brought back the 4:30AM News from 4:30AM to 9AM. I didn't ever watch it only for a minute or 2 of Newsfeed.

Kris Alred who went as Posman when she was weekend met at WWMT from 04-07 before leaving for WSAV in the fall of 07. When I was in Hilton Head SC on vacation in 08 I saw Kris do the weather on WSAV. I also like that WOTV rebranded to 4 West Michigan than women I wonder if they did that for sister station in Lansing?

I think Byron Allen would've been better merger than Apollo/Standard General in my opinion.

Funny how disputes end when it is close to the Olympics & Super Bowl that Dish agrees with TEGNA I'm guessing Dish will drop it's complaint with the FCC.

TEGNA is going to be sold sometime soon which I think will be Byron Allen as TEGNA doesn't want Soo Kim with Apollo/Standard General, since the board doesn't like Soo Kim and his takeover and not getting his choices on the board of TEGNA I wonder if Soo would sell his stake in TEGNA if Byron Allen if he is the winning bidder of TEGNA?

It would be smart of News Nation to put Live PD on the weekends in the same timeslot where it was on A&E which they were wrong to cancel it.

Dish is the worse when it comes to channels going dark always seem to be in a dispute with someone. A few days ago Sinclair extended with Dish for one more week I think it is on Thur that it could end.

Laura Velasquez leaves WXMI Fox17 after just 8 months she joined the station in Feb of 2021 she is a native to West Michigan as she worked for Wood TV for 7 years before leaving for Denver to work at KDVR and then ACCUWeather Network before she was laid off in March 2020 and is suing them. I thought that Laura would've stayed for at least a year & half to 2 years I didn't think she would be gone after just 8 months. Ever since Scripps took over Fox17 2 years ago a lot of talent have left the station either to other TV stations or getting out of the business as Fox17 lost 2 of the morning anchors a couple of months ago one moved to Cal to be closer to family another is still at the station doing different stuff.

Sportgrid will replace Laff on Wood TV's .3, Charge will be on WOTV's .3 Sep 1 was on WXMI Fox17 .4 until Feb of this year when the deal ended which Fox17 added GetTV which was WOTV's .2 until Feb which Dabal took over the .2 also on WLLA .6 as well. I don't know if WXSP .3 will be blank or they will have another network on .3 once Court TV Mystery is gone on Sep 1.

I'm surprised that WOIO is taking Rewind TV I thought that WJW would've taken it I see they have Comet & Charge TV as .3 & .4 why not bump both down to .4 or .5. I knew that Rewind TV was going on either Wood TV or WOTV when Kratz network deal ended will be Wood TV .2 which is Bounce TV ION didn't take Bounce on any of the subchannels so Wood TV was the only station to air Bounce. Yeah. kinda surprised that they didn't change anything up on the weekends kinda surprised that Antenna TV will air some 80's shows on the weekend once Rewind TV goes live on Sep 1, Sliver Spoons, Give Me A Break etc fits for Rewind TV. Maybe they will do some specials on the weekend from time to time on Rewind TV.

Better than In Heat Of The Night not sure on Blue Bloods thou.

The day parts of Fox News is just news other than Fox & Friends, Outnumbered I do miss at least one liberal on the panel & The Five, I like Outnumbered & The Five I watch those Outnumbered daily M-F, The Five every other day 2 or 3 days a week depending on the week this week will be 2. I don't watch prime time opinion shows I will watch Fox News At Night from time to time with Shannon Bream. I don't watch Fox News all day I have other shows I like to watch in the day time. I watch other news channels News Nation a couple of times a week and BBC World News from time to time. I know the difference from the local Fox & Fox News 2 very different from each other I don't see the local Fox stations across the country changing from Fox seems like insert local Fox whatever number channel in a TV market. Only a few don't use the Fox brand WSVN never has used the Fox brand I knew Boston did that a few years back those are the only 2 I know of that don't use the Fox brand, I'm sure there are a few more that don't use the Fox brand for the local Fox TV station.

I think CW7 will air just a half hour of the prime time National Desk after the news at 10:30PM. Move the repeat of Jeopardy to 11PM as that comes on at 10:30PM. That will not be known until about 2 weeks when online schedule comes out on TVPassport Titan TV etc. TVpassport is better than Titan TV when it comes to schedule. Which will be 2 weeks before in Mid-Sep.

I wouldn't be surprised if Scripps does this for Michigan since they own 3 TV stations in Michigan and have MI News 24/7 as I see Scripps expanding it across the country where they have a few TV stations in many states.

I think that CW7 will just air 30 minutes of The National Desk after 10PM news just my opinion. Maryland AG is butt hurt and sour grapes that WBFF reports on them all the time I doubt The FCC will do anything about it just my opinion.

I had a feeling that Antenna TV was going to a sister TV network Rewind TV I think Tribune was thinking of doing it as well. I hope that Rewind TV will add Charles In Charge and some other '80s & '90s TV shows, will be on WoodTV or WOTV .2 or .3 on either station.

I was glad that Nexstar kept WoodTV and didn't try with lame name to the station I'd guess it would've said something with West Michigan in the domain if they didn't keep the WoodTV domain. WZZM went to 13onmyside domain a few years ago I think in the spring of 2018 it was the call letters for the domain. WXMI when it was Tribune changed the domain 11 years ago from the call letters to Fox17Online domain should've kept the call letters for the domain just my opinion short is the way to go.

I'm not a fan of The Now/Newsfeed from Scripps I think they should ditch the format very cheap I hope that WXMI Fox17 ditches it but they aren't going to do that. If they did Modern Family would go back being a full hour as the second run is aired at 1AM.

I see News Nation is down the middle I don't see any bias in there news coverage. Rome wasn't built in a day and I'm sure Nexstar knew that there was going to be growing pains along the way, I watch News Nation a couple night a week largely the last half hour.

I wonder if WXMI Fox17 was hub in Indy when Tribune owned them and once they became a Scripps TV station moved to WRTV. I think it be smart for WZPX to try and get the subs of Doozy & Defy on Charter Spectrum & Comcast even if it's .5 & .6 unless they move them to .2 & .3 move the double Katz networks down. I know Fox17 is adding Doozy & Defy as well you could put one them on the .2 and move Antenna TV kinda surprised their is no double that network since Nexstar owns Antenna TV.

Got 3 Court TV Mystery as well WXSP. 3, WXMI Fox17 .4, WZPX .4. All the Katz networks are on Charter Spectrum as they carry Nexstar subchannels from Wood TV .2, .3, WOTV .2, .3 Grit is .3, WXSP .2, .3. For a day had 2 Court TV Mystery on Feb 1 sometime on Feb 2 Court TV came back on.

Prime time was when WNDU became Wood TV on Adelphia cable now Comcast from 8PM to 11PM in the 90's but there was no syndex it wasn't blacked out. Had WNDU & WSBT out of South Bend, WSYM Fox47 from Lansing, WWOR in NYC was taken off on New Year's Eve in 1994, WGN everyone in the midwest had WGN Superstation. I was surprised that Adelphia cable didn't have WKBD out of Detroit which was Michigan's superstation in the 80's & 90's Cablevision had it on channel 10 I think in 93 or 94 they may have gotten rid of it. I think I remember Time Warner Cable was in a dispute with Hearst for a couple of weeks in the summer of 2012 and took some out of market TV stations which whoever owned the TV station went to court to try and make TWC not to air the channels the courts never ruled when a deal was reached with TWC & Hearst. TWC took the out of market TV stations off and the owners dropped the lawsuit. I believe that Pay TV should get out of market TV when a dispute happens with the local ABC where I live isn't a problem as there is 2 ABC's so if one goes dark you can watch either WOTV or WZZM, NBC, CBS or Fox should get one from South Bend or Lansing since those are the 2 closes markets for Charter Spectrum & Comcast.
