I didn't think of that... Makes since though.

According to the KMGH website, Megan Jurgemeyer is no longer the news director, it's now Megan McRae, anyone know why the switch? And where did Mrs. Jurgemeyer go?

Caught this on KDVR in Denver, on Sunday, it appears that KDVR lost the FOX feed for a moment. I Don't know if this was on other FOX stations too but I captured it.

This move almost feels like the F.C.C. got it's way over ABC & Disney. Okay Mr. Kimmel may have said something in-sensitive, but at the same time it feels like ABC & Disney aren't going to stand up for there late night show, kinda lame. I 100% Agree with tyrannical bastard and what he posted up above the network doesn't have a license & now ABC is just following what Mr. Sook is doing, LAME!!!!

Long time KUSA / KTVD Photo Journalist Corky Scholl has passed away according to the station. https://www.9news.com/video/features/king-james-by-our-friend-corky-scholl/73-cb3f3dbd-8f5d-4495-8caa-927f5f901d5b?fbclid=IwY2xjawMtVQRleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHsL6juE3gMVi0Qpwc-zKVM-gOKWWcgApmW7MbmXmpQlXD0s7WuFCV818MhNX_aem_SSrvQIbAbMQbcf2UGU2L0g

The FOX4 news dept is definitely going away. That is a crazy combo to think of. So now there will be basically no competition in SWFL, that's great (Not)-- gee kinda sounds like the current ownership situation in Grand Junction, CO with 3 companies owning everything (Nexstar, Gray & Mission Broadcasting).

No IPTV.

Well it seems Chris Cuomo is not doing well ratings wise, are we surprised? I guess I'm not, for as big of a news junkie that I am, I haven't watched NN in months, it's certainly not top of mind for me when breaking news happens. https://www.tvinsider.com/1212232/chris-cuomo-newsnation-ratings-reportedly-down-90-percent-to-cnn-show/

Clara Faith has joined KMGH & KCDO from WACH in Columbia SC. She will be the weekend weather presenter.

Robert Van Winkle former Chief Meteorologist at WVIR & WBBH, has come out of retirement after 7 Years, and has joined KIRO-TV in Seattle, working with former WBBH & current KIRO Chief Meteorologist Morgan Palmer.

KUSA (NBC) & KTVD (My Network TV) Tegna's Denver duopoly are carrying select Rockies games this season.

KDVR & KFCT celebrated 25 years of "FOX 31 NEWS" last night. 25 Years & 4 different owners in that time. https://www.facebook.com/reel/768329848963791

Denver San Francisco Fort Myers/Naples San Diego Seattle Spokane From what I Can tell by looking at the shows website, these are the 6 markets that don't air the program.

So www.nonstoplocal.com appears to be a news version of what excite.com (yes it's still on-line) is, because KHQ, KNDU,KNDO & KTMF all have there own local websites in addition to SWX still maintaining it's own website. And good on Cowles for doing something a bit different.

Meteorologist Jaden Knowles is joining Tegna's KUSA & KTVD in Denver in early April, as part of their Weather Impact Team. He has spent the last 2 years at American Spirit Media's KAUZ-TV "News6" in Wichita Falls TX as morning meteorologist.

Per KOB's website KOB4 is off the air in Southeastern New Mexico, due to high winds that apparently knocked the dish out of alignment at the microwave site. So KOB is unavailable over the air in: Alamogordo Silver City Las Crusis Truth & Consequences Ruidoso & Deming The station is waiting on tower climbing crews to fix the issue.

I'm sure it had something to do with it wasn't and still isn't technically a legal duopoly. At one point not sure why it didn't happen but in the late 90s the F.C.C. ordered Waterman Broadcasting Corp to spin off WZVN to a 3rd party but it didn't happen.

Effective today: NBC2 NEWS (WBBH-DT) & ABC7 (WZVN-DT) are now operating under one brand & one website. NBC-2.COM & ABC-7.COM now redirect to: www.gulfcoastnewsnow.com, the 2 stations will still have separate newscasts & anchor teams but one brand. Below is the new logo for the 2 stations. Here is the article talking about the switch: https://www.gulfcoastnewsnow.com/article/gulf-coast-news-nbc2-abc7-fort-myers/63677491 IMAGE: WBBH / WZVN.

The Eaton fire is currently threatening Mt. Willson & the TV Transmitter sites for KNBC,KABC, KCBS, KKTV, KTLA, & KCAL. And probably transmitter sites for local radio stations. So quick question: where is the backup site for the L.A. TV stations? Thanks..

Spring Weather, I saw that FOX Weather was kind of on this strange loop yesterday. The Weather Channel & Weather Nation TV were both on top of the multiple alerts as they were going out. FOX Weather finally started to show alerts 20-30mins after TWC & WN, SAD situation for FOX Weather.

MidwestTV is right, they do it all the time outside. Usually when it's in studio it's for the A-Block hit on the newscast, TODAY Show Weather Updates & NBC News Daily weather Updates. What they don't use as much anymore is the camera shot from the main Weather Center that's out in the Information Center.

KMGH / KCDO Chief Meteorologist Mike Nelson retires today after a 48 year career, his final newscast is at 5PM. He came to KMGH in 2004 from KUSA where he was the chief meteorologist from 1991-2004.

Tegna's ticker does look a lot like what Hearst uses for it's stations, KUSA & KTVD have been using this style of election ticker since 2020.
