Ntropolis 596 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I listen to WKXB/Jammin’ 99.9 and they expressed plans to be on the air with updates. If anything all the Sunrise stations may simulcast together, but I doubt they’ll just broadcast TV audio unless it becomes necessary. That's good... I like the Jammin' crew and I know they'll do a great job keeping it local. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/316/#findComment-212876 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ns8401 940 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Sinclair must have gotten some inspiration from that sign to mess up their own spelling. How ironic.

Georgie56 3292 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 From Twitter: KSNV misspelled Cincinnati (lower third) in a story about a misspelled Cincinnati road sign.

I remember watching him here on WISN. I called the WISN Newsroom a moment ago, and one of the assignment editors told me that they'll be doing a tribute to David on the 11AM newscast later today, as well as a full tribute on the early-evening newscasts.

hmaxhanson 650 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Longtime NBC News and WTVJ Miami reporter Ike Seamans has passed away after a long battle with prostate cancer. He was 80. This man was GOOD. Really GOOD. I know because I watched him for years at WTVJ and was lucky enough to watch his craft with his amazing news voice. A stellar news reporter, excellent at best and legendary at the most. He will be missed. https://www.adweek.com/tvspy/legendary-miami-reporter-ike-seamans-dies/207918 And as we all know, Ike was at the transmitter building when WTVJ moved from 4 to 6 on September 10, 1995: Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/316/#findComment-213010 Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrabbleship 429 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 WTEN's Elisa Streeter is retiring after 30 years, effective the end of 2018. Her line about the "next chapter" makes me seriously think that she'll surface doing something or another at WNYT, probably special reports or what not similar to how John McLoughlin met his end. Perhaps after ~25 years we'll see the return of "Streeter's Lane"... 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/316/#findComment-213097 Share on other sites More sharing options...

[MEDIA=twitter]1040737930430607361[/MEDIA] So strange how they and the Dallas Morning News treat him. It's almost as if the DMN thought he'd just dry up and blow away when they showed him the door years ago. The other DFW stations don't seem to mind Uncle Barky that much. And stupid, since he can get the information elsewhere that they think they are blocking from him. It reminds me of hearing how Tracy Rowlett was excluded from the framed pictures of past/present on-air talent in the lobby of WFAA. Very parched-earth, very very sour grapes.

east-tx-tv 120 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Meanwhile, down the dial..... 58 years ago today, Dallas' PBS station, KERA, signed on. It wasn't until 1974 that they would be able to broadcast in color. But a first came along the following year, as KERA was the first US station to air an episode of the Brit-com Monty Python's Flying Circus. All the members of MP made an appearance during a 1975 pledge drive. KERA has been airing Brit-coms and dramas ever since. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/316/#findComment-213145 Share on other sites More sharing options...
