Eat News 4738 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 i find it quite surprising that fox is allowing their affiliates to skip a presidential inaguration broadcast FOX had to toss a bone to some of the liberal affils to make up for that whole Ailes fiasco. They decided to let some of them cut-away because even FOX knows this is pretty boring TV by todays standards. I saw it on the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColDayNews 437 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 WBNS and WHIO (two larger CBS stations) went local after the oath, due in part to the school shooting in Champaign County. They returned to CBS coverage at 2pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnya2k6 171 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 If the side-by-side photos are any indication, it appears nobody cared less. Only 250,000 people saw it all in person, compared to the 1.8 million who packed the National Mall for Obama's 2009 inauguration. In the end, low attendance may translate to lower TV ratings for this "inauguration". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriangleTriadMediaNews 267 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 All of the DC stations ditched the network around 1:30-2pm to cover the protests & riots locally. WRC was the only terrestrial station who stayed local through the swearing in and speech from Pres. Trump, via their Cozi subchannel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
