NewsMaster 226 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 It has only been a month since Marquee Broadcasting acquired WNKY in Bowling Green, Kentucky, and it now appears that they may be looking to start a full news operation for the station. A job opening for a news director at the station has been posted. 5 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/241/#findComment-179158 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacobC 44 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 KRON 4 up in the Bay Area has announced that it will be expanding to 3 hours of primetime local news from 8-11pm. It has the morning news from 4-11am and 5-7pm, it will be curious to have more local news since it lost NBC back on NYE '01.

CircleSeven 1955 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Here we go. Yet another news expansion. TVNewsCheck stated that on August 21st, KRON 4 will be adding a new 9pm show, making their lineup a "primetime news block" from 8-11pm. The 15-minute 11pm show will be eliminated. MyNetworkTV programming will be aired from 11pm-1am. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/241/#findComment-179522 Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Block 1566 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 So KRON 4's gonna be the KCAL9 of the Bay Area... Let's not get ahead of ourselves. This is still the station that runs like a small market station in a large market. They still send MMJs everywhere when all the big boys have a reporter and photog in an ENG truck at the same event, and they still whore themselves out by producing paid programming features during newscast breaks. If Fisher Price ever got into news, their news channel would look a lot like KRON. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/241/#findComment-179544 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRob 937 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Stella Thurkill was one of my anchors when I worked at KTKA in Topeka. I had no idea she still worked in TV news. That's pretty good longevity for a female on-air talent. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/7/26/out-the-door-in-billings 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/241/#findComment-179554 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like being a news director at both WOIO/CBS 19 & WGCL/CBS46 should come with a warning sign. DANGER!
