My FOX website on a non FOX O&O station?

Wow! This is so great. A MyFOX site in Green Bay - excellent!

 

Now all four Green Bay news stations have great websites!

http://www.nbc26.com

I knew WLUK's site was in need of a redo, but this is most interesting.

 

I've noticed the overall technical direction of the newscasts has gone south big time as well [since last night], which is making me wonder if new graphics and/or music are on the way.......

This is interesting. LIN must have had some sort of deal with Fox Interactive to make LIN's Fox sites like O&Os.

 

I may be going out on a limb here, but remember LIN up for "sale", could this mean LIN might be selling their Fox stations to Fox?

Notice at the bottom of the sites, it doesn't say copyright LIN, but copyright Fox.

 

It's still beta. It's probably not completely done yet.

 

Take a look at the "FIRST ON FOX" page ... it's got nothing on it. The address even says GoodDay... tells me some things need to be changed since there is no "Good Day Hampton Roads."

I haven't heard MyFOXHamptonRoads being plugged on-air yet...

 

Take a look at this: http://www.fox43tv.com

When I type in fox43tv.com, I get this...

FOX ©'ed myfoxpittsburgh.com but it hasn't been updated since Dec of last year.

They registered the domain but never did anything with it? I wonder if perhaps there was/is a service they were to offer affiliates?

If LIN waa going to sell to FOX, FOX would have to divest stations or run them under some shell corporation, because they're over the ownership limit already. Plus, these stations are in markets much smaller than FOX owns...so if it can be pulled off, expect a station or two to be sold to satisfy requirements.

 

I wonder if WVUE and KHON are a part of this....Emmis still owns WVUE and I heard Montecito was for sale as well.

Guys, it isnt just LIN Stations doing this. It looks like Sinclair's stations will be jumping on the myFox bandwagon as well.

Wow, they even have Fox O&O logos?! Amazing...

 

But still, nice to see that News Corp is finally starting to open up the MyFox platform - but will it take over the world? I don't think so, but still...

I'd rather have that than Eyewitness News New Gen on every ABC affiliate across the country.

Well it appears that WLUK has all kinds of exciting news! WLUK just signed a deal to provide forecasts for Midwest Communications radio stations in Green Bay and Appleton, replacing WGBA NBC 26.
