Chief-O 31 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 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.......

Ntropolis 596 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Didn't LIN's WUPW (FOX Toledo) get the O&O look not long ago? Could it be spreading to the other LIN FOXes?

newsie 11 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 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?

Ntropolis 596 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 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."

newsie 11 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 It definetly appears something is going on with LIN and Fox. I just wrote WVBT to see if I could find anything out.

jestbiteme 13 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 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?

tyrannical bastard 3951 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 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.
