Guest wfaa8fan Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I think they are trying to change their news operation. Especially, with new director and the anchor changes... New graphics would be nice too. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/1212-ktvts-first-5-minutes/#findComment-10254 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasTVNews 1377 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I bet ya they were doing it for ratings. Remember 11 Minutes of Non-Stop News + Forecast FIRST (Eleven on 11)?

Ntropolis 596 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 WTKR had 11@11 for a while (from the time they switched to Eyewitness News in 1992 until the switch to NewsChannel 3 in 1995). I'm not sure if they had it during the Millennium 3 era, I know they had it during the Ignitor era until 2002, I remember WTKR ran promos for it around 2000. I never understood it at first, I thought they started the late news 11 minutes before 11pm Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/1212-ktvts-first-5-minutes/#findComment-10271 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdcnow 14 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I actually like the "First 5 Minutes" deal. However I do agree that KTVT needs a graphics makeover. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/1212-ktvts-first-5-minutes/#findComment-10284 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFW11anchorman 0 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 The "First 5 Minutes" is ridiculous. There entire newscast has become a joke. It's sad to see such a solid newscsast become this new crap that Regent Ducas brought to KTVT.

DFW11anchorman 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Speaking of KTVT, I just noticed their website is now combined with TXA21. They've both got one together now, seems very unnecessary.

YoungstownTV 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Don't forget WPXI, they use "11 at 11" too. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/1212-ktvts-first-5-minutes/#findComment-10308 Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Channel 11 became the new CBS affiliate (Then Owner: Gaylord Broadcasting) they added a 6 pm newscast and a 5:30 Sunday newscast, but when they started 11 on 11 or (ELEVEN on 11) Cameron Harper (WPTY) and Midge Hill were the Sunday-Thursday 10pm Anchors and Beth McKay and Jerry Jenkins were the Friday-Saturday 10pm Anchors. Like I said, it's ELEVEN on 11, not 11 @ 11. And it lasted I think from 1995-1998. If you referring to 11@11, KSTW Seattle (THEN: CBS) used to have a title called ELEVEN @ 11 and WYSR (THEN: WIXT) still using the title 11@11.

Not just because of the number, but because it would fit their fast-paced, crime story galore newscast...Sadly what KTVT is becoming.
