Mrtraveler01 738 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Update to the situation at Spectrum News 1 Ohio: By that same source, those of us in Ohio who have Spectrum will see the channel hit the airwaves this Wednesday! More on that here: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DrRGdrwWkAEDXYi.jpg:large There are some pics of their rehearsals on the same feed.

nathannah 2428 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 My Spectrum bill came today; it says the VOD move off channel 1 in Wisconsin will occur on November 27.

skbl17 188 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I really, really like that Spectrum News 1 theme. Really wish we had a Spectrum News channel here in Atlanta, but Comcast's iron grip on the region precludes this.

rah6448 21 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I really, really like that Spectrum News 1 theme. Really wish we had a Spectrum News channel here in Atlanta, but Comcast's iron grip on the region precludes this. Yeah, that theme is really cool. It has a WBZ/WSBK 1994 feel to it when you listen to them side by side (link to the theme on NMSA: http://www.southernmedia-nmsa.com/#3,1,1060). Could this be a new theme rolling to the other Spectrum News stations?

NEOMatrix 1299 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 There are some pics of their rehearsals on the same feed. It depends. I don't know how soon Spectrum (or Tivo, who does the channel lineup) will be able to update for Spectrum News 1.

NEOMatrix 1299 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Also, I have a question: Will Spectrum make the Spectrum News 1 available to other cable providers in Ohio (ie Armstrong, Buckeye, Massillon Cable TV, etc)?

Definitely not. Spectrum News 1 is advertised as a Spectrum exclusive.

compubit 673 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I could see them offering it to other traditional cable providers - as long as it’s “not on satellite, not on phone company tv” - like NY1 is available to other cable providers in the NY area.

CalItalian2 163 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 News 1 in LA will likely launch next week on November 16th. See that they posted that on their FB page after someone asked when. Makes no sense to start on a Friday and less than one week before Thanksgiving. Dumb. And today they missed the biggest story in SoCal all year.

LoadStar 364 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Spectrum News Wisconsin updates: - Spectrum has a programming notice indicating that Spectrum Sports will go away "on or around December 31, 2018." I expect that's a conservative estimate, but I can't find anything definitive on a launch date. - Brooke Brighton (twitter) and Kristin Ketchell (twitter) appear to be on-air meteorologists for Spectrum News Wisconsin, and Diane Irving (twitter) appears to be news director.

Eat News 4745 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I can't wait to see what major station group tries to hop into bed with Spectrum News in cities where my local news presence may be weak. Sinclair and Spectrum News anyone? (But seriously folks...I'm just thinking out of my ass, but that would be so funny and all you tv purist would just poop giant garbanzo beans if that ever happend.)

Diane was the Assistant ND at WTMJ for years. Wouldn't be surprised if some of the other bigger profile WTMJ departures (i.e. George Mallett) from the past year follow her over.

TexasTVNews 1377 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I wish Spectrum can start expanding news all across Texas (DFW, Houston, Beaumont, Etc.) besides Austin and San Antonio.

mre29 1519 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I wish Spectrum can start expanding news all across Texas (DFW, Houston, Beaumont, Etc.) besides Austin and San Antonio. Amarillo, El Paso, Lubbock, Abilene, San Angelo, Brownsville, Laredo, Waco, Bryan, Wichita Falls, Tyler, Victoria... Basically, they need to try to get it on every cable system in the state -- and then actually cover those areas.
