newsbot 271 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 (edited) Effective Monday WFXT is shifting its six-hour morning news block forward one hour to 5A-11A. With fewer commuters and more home-based workers, this gamble just might pay off.

I've seen nothing in the station's messaging to suggest that this is temporary. In any event, this will not be through any time soon; as with previous pandemics, there is significant risk of a second wave absent an effective vaccine.

WRC did it I think had ratings success during last years government shutdown. The government shutdown was by definition temporary; without a vaccine work schedules face extreme disruption for an indefinite period of time in the COVID-19 era. Furthermore, a significant amount of work will be home-based going forward. Even a number of TV reporters I've spoken to acknowledge that things will never be the same again.

It wouldn't surprise me if Sinclair is next...they took a horrible gamble on the RSN purchases from FOX, lost a lot of carriage before the crisis, and then came the COVID-19 crisis and all of it's fallout. Now the RSN's are worthless without fresh content and less ways to watch them. Meanwhile, the stations are chugging along producing content and many are working from home.

NYPhillynews 103 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 She hadn’t even been at KPRC one year. I wonder if ratings were a factor. Seems like she was given a raw deal. Maybe her co-anchor needed to be changed. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/413/#findComment-244288 Share on other sites More sharing options...
