Who is she replacing?

 

It makes me wonder if a move from market 210 to 1 is possible...

It makes me wonder if a move from market 210 to 1 is possible...

 

It's getting harder and harder to tell the difference. I watched the weekend offerings in Palm Springs and L.A. and they were both just as good / bad depending on how you view.

Large markets need super cheap people just like the smaller ones.

It' s really starting to show.

Also, for weather at least, markets in the west are generally smaller than their number appears compared to eastern or central markets due to much less in the way of demanding situations. Many western stations have non-meteorologists on their weather staff, while that is increasingly rare even in small markets in eastern and central states.

 

I'm defining "western" as west of the Rocky Mountains.

I'm curious to know how much they're not paying her and who she beat out. I've never seen her stuff, so I'm not going to act like she isn't qualified or anything, but it's certainly a surprise given what market she's coming from.

Here is her website...and leg shot.

Erika Delgado.

 

So she's moving to WSCV Telemundo 51? Because I know she does weekend evening weather there and can speak Spanish fluently.

I have no clue just knew this new girl is replacing her since the PR stated she was hired as weekend morning meteorologist for WTVJ.

That's what I'm wondering because WTVJ has a strong team of meteorologists. No need to mess it up.

[Asomrjsurf 6]

KMBC has hired a Guy from OKC to Anchor but nothing on who yet. Had Matt Flener Anchoring this Weekend in the Evening,

[TriangleTriadMediaNews 267]

Can they move it to 2.2 later if they wish?

Do the rules allow or prohibit that kind of simulcast on a sub channel?

 

WUSA simulcasts their 7pm news on their Bounce subchannel and also will air regular CBS programming over there in the event of longform breaking news coverage or when a Nats baseball game is on the main channel.

[mardek1995 200]

Yeah I get the newscasts airing on KICU, but really? KTVU Plus? If you're going to do that, move it to 2.2! Would not put it past them to do the same thing with WMYT in Charlotte.

In fact, why donsn't Fox do the same thing with all their MyNetworkTV stations?

Doesn't Hearst do the same thing on their Me-TV subchannels?

I know WBAL has a 10pm show on their MeTV affiliate and while not Hearst owned, WBTV in Charlotte has an 8pm newscast on their Bounce as well.

I think KMSP already does it with MyTV/WFTC 29 on KMSP 9.2

[mardek1995 200]

I don't think that counts though.

[TheRolyPoly 2593]

Oh. Well I thought it did, but never mind.

[mardek1995 200]

Oh. Well I thought it did, but never mind.

But do any of Fox's MyNetworkTV stations have any hours of news on their own?

[TheRolyPoly 2593]

Nope. The last was WWOR and KCOP but gone since 2013 and WFTC but gone in over a decade.

[mardek1995 200]

Nope. The last was WWOR and KCOP but gone since 2013 and WFTC but gone in over a decade.

So in that case, the only duopoly partner that has any news is KICU as KTVU Plus. So why don't they start bringing news on their duopoly partners (and in the case for many mynet O&Os that were UPN affiliates, bringing news back)?

Except for maybe WWOR, which requires "news programming" of some sort due to licensing, the reasoning is that it would cannibalize the ratings for their Fox sister stations.

In Phoenix, KSAZ doesn't even use KUTP for news overflow.

Then at why doesn't any of the fox O&O stations at least use their mynet stations for overflow of news, or on the occasion that any program (more than likely a football game that starts at about 8 colonial time, 7 central time) that flows into the time period where their (mynet stations) senior partners would normally air their newscasts?

[TriangleTriadMediaNews 267]

This past winter during that crazy blizzard we had here in VA, WDCA took on airing regular FOX programming so WTTG could keep running non-stop news coverage.

Back to the future at WTKR? (Haven't seen anything elsewhere other than VARTV)
