  1. I know lists are frowned here, but I'm curious what stations have NOT flipped yet.
  2. Way too much going on in here that I can't keep up with. That said, I know these are mostly stations losing money now and rated very low in markets.
  3. One option in the late nights is to simulcast local coverage, although that requires getting rights to such.
  4. I know this is not Speculatron though...and we don't know a lot of the details. This may all just fall through as well.
  5. He'd have to sell pretty much every station in markets below the top 60 to fit WPIX.
  6. Transcript from Gray's Q1 2024 call. At this time, any significant M&A looks out of the picture, as they are focusing on paying down the debt and building their core. (Although they have plenty of space with the UHF discount).
  7. Congress would have to change the rules to let Nexstar into more markets. That seems to be a low priority right now.
  8. I wonder if Fox Weather is also looking at possibly acquiring Mike Seidel and others laid off at TWC? They might be seeing that option open up.
  9. Once I have access (I had to make a new account as I lost the previous in the move), I'll make some Speculatron thoughts.
  10. Now that was unexpected news. I think they realize they are boxed out based on their previous behavior. I think the standalone weaker stations (with no news operation) might be possible duopoly bait for someone else in those markets.
  11. I find it very interesting that these broadcast companies have jumped onto the sports bandwagon. I think they see the collapse of regional sports, and the fact that they are pseudo-networks in themselves.
  12. Sometimes I wonder what some hypothetical color combinations would be like for GrayOne. For example, if Gray owned a station in Pittsburgh (would require either CBS to walk away from its non-top 10 O&O's, or a Cox and Hearst deal), the yellow and black would look really good I think. I also think some purple is needed for WVUE when it goes to the package.
  13. 12% of their entire workforce is being cut, according to various sources.
  14. I'm curious if there are any stations that require most significant upgrades to get GrayOne. For example, there are no ex-Hoak stations currently on GrayOne. (BTW this is GoldenShine9 but it was linked to an old email I no longer have so had to restart with the move).
