NEOMatrix 1299 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 I’m just baffled that Fox wants to get a station and have another WJZY on its hands. Except this time, they’re moving from a top station in English to what may only beat WFOR in the news race.

CalItalian2 163 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 You'd think that WHDH would've dropped newscasts on WLVI since WHDH isn't affiliated with anybody, apparently the Ansin's haven't gotten that memo yet KTLA Los Angeles simulcasts their 10-11:30 pm news on their digital subchannel Antenna TV (5.2) weekdays. Just another place among 100's of cable channels to get eyes watching. No reason not to simulcast on WLVI since there are probably plenty of people use to it. Plus you get exposure on two cable/satellite channels.

Once 56-1 flips to Buzzr and WLVI's program inventory merges onto WHDH, this will mercifully be a moot point.

That's the only reason why. And, should KTBC remain in their hands, Fox will have four O&Os in California, four O&Os in Texas and four O&Os in Florida.

channel2 979 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Four in Texas? I thought they were just gonna have three. Though I do wonder now why Fox wanted KSTU back...politics? Growth potential?

Sounds like Myron once again spewing out out stuff and being wrong. I can point out many times, this has happened, most recently in this thread when he claimed KTBC was trade bait for KCPQ. I hope he’s not in the business because he does an awful job of fact checking.

Um, there are currently three Fox O&Os across Texas; if Austin's KTBC Fox 7 ends up being sold to Sinclair, then there would be two Fox O&Os.

cg41386 132 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 There are three Fox affiliates (KDFW/KRIV/for now KTBC) owned and operated by the network in Texas. There are two other non-Fox stations (KDFI/KTXH) also owned by the network.

Plus you get exposure on two cable/satellite channels. I remember flipping through channels watching winter storm coverage one night a few years ago. WHDH had pre-empted NBC programming, but WLVI hadn't pre-empted CW programming, so I figured 'HDH would switch over to NBC at 10:00. Nope! WLVI simply simulcasted the coverage...with separate ads during at least one break. (This may have been the same storm for which WFXT ran continuous coverage from 10:00pm one night to 8:00pm the next night.)

Well I thought so since WSVN is one of the strongest (if not THE strongest) FOX affiliates out there and there would be NO WAY FOX would wanna leave WSVN. But boy I was wrong but its okay because I see WSVN still surviving and will be more thriving if its loses FOX.
