tyrannical bastard 3474 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Since a sub-discussion has formed in the never-ending Sinclair thread...I've started this topic to discuss how Media General is going to mold WHTM in their image.... Whatever Media General has to offer is more than likely going to be world's better than the current Allbritton package. If they're as social media heavy as I'm reading here, then the WVTM/WKRG package may work. That all depends on once the LIN merger takes place, and a drastic change could be coming to ALL stations.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColumbusNewsFan 217 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I believe that WHTM will be better under MG..... BWHAHA HA HA! Sorry, I can't say that with a straight face after seeing what it done to WCMH! WHTM will continue down the road to sucking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I can't say that with a straight face after seeing what it done to WCMH! WHTM will continue down the road to sucking! Media General post-LIN merger will be quite a bit different at the top. I don't see a WCMH here just for that factor alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOMatrix 1295 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 With Sadusky taking the helm of the new Media General, expect WHTM to be more like a LIN station than any of MG's pre-LIN, pre-Young stations. Although, I hope MG dosen't decide to rebrand WHTM from ABC27 to "WHTM 27" and rip off WKBN's (now mutated) look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said the 2008 WKBN logo was based on something very, very specific, the Art Deco/Streamline Moderne lettering at the station's building.

Which package are you talking about, the "rotating TARDIS console" package they had until earlier this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennTV1983 748 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Which package are you talking about, the "rotating TARDIS console" package they had until earlier this year? No, that was the old GO package. The one he's talking about is the package currently used at WVTM and WKRG, which was designed by jcbD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
