Segment from the KDFW newsmagazine "Insights" about KLMG-TV (Now KFXK-TV.), Ch. 51 in Longview, TV from 1985 (Segment starts at 1:49.)

Before she was at KNXV in Phoenix, she was at KCTV in Kansas City.

Nexstar did sell 6 other TV stations in 2016 to Heartland Media including: KQTV, Ch. 2, St. Joseph, MO WAAY, Ch. 31, Huntsville, AL WFFT, Ch. 55, Ft. Wayne, IN WLFI, Ch. 18, West Lafayette, IN WTHI, Ch. 10, Terre Haute, IN KIMT, Ch. 3, Mason City, IA

One problem with this schedule is that CBS affiliates in the Central & Mountain time zones may balk at the idea of having a network show at 9AM.

They instead had to fill time by airing Judge Judy reruns with a message saying what had happened. Their noon newscast didn't start until 12:50pm.

I've wondered what would have happened if Hearst acquired the former Fisher TV stations instead of Sinclair in 2013. If that would have happened, then KLEW-TV in Lewiston, ID would have become a Hearst station.

Part of a November 1994 interview, on WDAF-TV, Ch. 4 in Kansas City, MO, with Fox chairman & CEO Rupert Murdoch about WDAF-TV's affiliation switch from NBC to Fox which happened almost 2 months earlier.

I originally posted the following on the Ion board: I wonder if, based on the programming & branding changes that have occured at KUPX, KMCC & KASW, Scripps owned independent TV station KMCI-TV, Ch. 38 in Kansas City, MO, will eventually drop it's longtime "38 the Spot" branding & start using some branding like Kansas City 38 or even KC 38?

A little bit off topic, but I wonder if, based on the programming & branding changes that have occured at KUPX, KMCC & KASW, Scripps owned independent TV station KMCI-TV, Ch. 38 in Kansas City, MO, will eventually drop it's longtime "38 the Spot" branding & start using some branding like Kansas City 38 or even KC 38?

I'n not sure if VHSgoodiesWA has seen this, but here is a video that YouTube recommended to me recently showing how KIMA made their commercial break tapes in 1991.

According to some old archived webpages, WB affiliate KWGN-TV, Ch. 2 in Denver, CO, was carrying Live with Regis & Kelly around 2001-02, however there's a chance that even they would have not carried this episode either as they usually aired the show between 9-10AM MT. The first attack happened at 6:46AM MT & was before KWGN-TV's morning newscast which, at the time, started at 7AM. I think that there is a 50/50 chance that they would have been carrying a live feed from CNN, or NYC sister station WPIX, that morning.

Video reuploaded, by the original uploader, to fix some glitches. A pre-launch test broadcast from KSCH, Ch. 58, Sacramento, CA, from April 1986. What kinds of test patterns were shown here?

The ATSC 3.0 signals of the CBS & MyNetTV (Both Gray owned.) & ABC & CW (Both Hearst owned.) in Kansas City, MO are now encrypted. The ATSC 3.0 signals of the Fox (Nexstar owned.), independent & NBC (Both Scripps owned.) & PBS (Locally owned.) are still in the clear.
