You'd think they'd carry even just the network feed.

Yeah, I agree with you.

Yes, they did.  One of the two hotels I stay at when in Providence still carries whatever useless stuff is on 28.  No CW.  Begs the question, does DirecTV or Dish carry the CW for the Providence market?

Nope. MyNetworkTV isn't available either.

Will the Inyo stations be obligated to take the Katz subnets, or will they be free to add new subnets on their spectrum?

Probably the Katz subnets.

On another note, we don't know the date for when Ion Plus or Qubo are shutting down yet.

We have a date! Ion Plus, Qubo and Ion Shop will be going away on February 28.

Anything going to change with the new owners of the divested/INYO stations? 

 

It's probably still going to be ION Television.

Will Qubo & Ion Plus be closed or converted into digital services?

We don't know yet. All we know is that Qubo and Ion Plus are going away.

Here's the Fox 45 News at 5:30 and Fox 45 News at 10:00 from March 22, 2010.

One final note: The Fox 45 Early Edition and Morning News from that day are missing. Why? Because somebody must have accidentally switched the cable box over to Disney Channel until it got switched back to WBFF some time later. I actually don't what show it got switched over to, since I don't know WBFF's schedule for that day. And oh yeah, good luck finding it, since it's not available for viewing and you can't even find it on a Google search. So yeah, that was a long story. (I didn't post those 3 videos because they have full episodes and I don't want to break the rules.)

EDIT: I found a clip of Fox 45 Morning News on the same day after some searching. Here it is.

Here's the WBFF Fox 45 Late Edition from Thanksgiving Day 2010:

I don't think I'm going to be posting the 10:00 PM news since most of it is The Simpsons Movie (the movie got delayed because of Football).

Where are you able to search for these on Internet Archive? I can't find the collection.

https://archive.org/search.php?query=title%3A(WPVI) AND date%3A[2017-12-25 TO 2017-12-25]

Here's the link.

EDIT: I forgot to mention this but you have to go to the Advance Search, type in WPVI and choose a Month, Date and Year.

In the last few Christmases I remember, they wouldn't even do a Christmas morning broadcast. So I'm surprised they did one today.

I am surprised about that too. They usually don't show news on Christmas Morning. For example, in 2017, they aired The Spirit of Christmas at 5AM and Small Town Big Deal Christmas Across America at 6AM. I am not sure what they aired at 4:30 AM and 11:00 PM because I didn't see them on Internet Archive.

Here's a WBFF Newscast from July 9, 2011.

Here's a KMXC sign off from October 2008. Not sure if they still sign off though.

That's actually a few days later, which is even weirder... They were still running the signoff on a completely different set of sticks.

Yeah, it is. I thought this was from the last day as a FOX affiliate, but nope, FOX Programming stopped airing on November 2. My bad, i need to look at the correct dates in the future.

Here is the sign off of KTTW from a couple days ago, also the last day as a FOX affiliate.

Glad he apologize. Joking about People's deaths is not funny at all.

I know Mitch Mcconnell is still alive, but I need to point this out.
