KCTV5 and/or KYTV "KY3" is not getting GrayONE for at least until this summer.

Yea, it doesn't make sense for WBKP/WBUP to be two different stations now, it made sense in 2005 but not in 2024.

https://northpine.com/2024/04/12/nexstar-sells-up-station-to-be-operated-by-abc-affiliate/ Well, WJMN-TV in Escanaba—Marquette is leaving ownership of Nexstar and to ... Ralph. M. Oakley out of Quincy, Illinois (?) and operated by the ABC affiliate. Huh, interesting.

It gets even weirder, there's two affiliates in Los Angeles (An subchannel on KTBN and KVMD) which makes almost no sense why there would be two affiliates of this network.

Looks much cleaner honesty.... Old thing but... *Ahem* KWTV and KOTV In the 80s to 2010 included "The Spirit of Oklahoma" on their logos.

I'm more confused about this whole case than anything else because the FCC would care more about Nexstar operating WPIX but yet at the same time, allow Coastal Television to aquire KTWO, do an mass firing like outta the end of the Mary Tyler Moore show, cut local news, and then lease SOME news operations to Newsnet outta Cadillac, Michigan. It's like, how is that helping anything? "Splitting up LMA's are good for some groups" unless you realize how to could be a little too messed up whatsoever especially if one of the stations had TRASHEY financial problems (like KNVN). I'm not saying that Henry or the FCC are correct in their decisions but it's like do we have to focus on that when it comes to Nexstar? Oh yea, since everybody is forgetting this, if Nexstar and/or Mission Broadcasting doesn't want to sell WPIX, they can sell any other stations to meet the cap/quota on Television stations. Basically, yea, FCC do better and actually care and do more research on stations before you request ownership groups to do some things. Sorry of this is long but damn, this is the dumbest thing in the world.

I don't know, probably because of the cord-cutting that is going on.

Yea, true. In Kansas City, KSHB hasn't really gotten out of 4th place for reasons that are clear (News operation starting in the 90s, staff from elsewhere, some turnover and other stuff) but I mean, it least it's not St. Louis.

Given the fact WMAR has historically been in 3rd, I can't really say I'm surprised. I AM surprised that WBAL and 'JZ (WJZ) hasn't left the coverage of the Bridge collapse since 2 IN THE MORNING.

Oh, this is interesting. Sinclair is putting The Tennis Channel's T2 on NextGen channels in 43 Television markets. https://www.nexttv.com/news/sinclair-putting-tennis-channels-t2-on-nextgen-broadcast-channels

They could sell off smaller stations since those have less significance for Nexstar anyway, I think. (If Mission Broadcasting doesn't sell off WPIX, they can sell off some other stations yo keep the ownership cap at an FCC approved level.)

Just move KGBT-TV to the KVEO tower. It's easy to tell them that they are moving transmitters, I think. Or is it difficult, I have no idea. Also, it was only acquired by Nexstar because of the failed Tribune-Sinclair merger

KGW, Why did someone think this was okay? It wasn't.

It doesn't look bad in the 90's. I assume it was used after it turned into a CBS affiliate.

That doesn't sound right. That's not okay especially in a smaller market like where KNEP-TV serves.

It looked like Sinclair took a lot of time on that which makes sense in a big market like Washington D.C.

Interesting, KTVN just looks cool I also like that the call sign is in a box, just like some of the CBS O&O.

Hmm... I don't think so given the fact that Kansas City isn't that known for collage sports 'n stuff. KMCI is gonna be 38 the Spot for a while.
