Tried to record it tonight and they now have an hour of NewsNet in its place? Maybe the contract ended and the super cheap folks at Cocola opted not to renew. That company is CHEAP. I think KFSN is still producing it? At last check on the schedules, KMSG still airs an hour of news at 8pm. Unless something has changed. Let me know.

KFSN just launched a 7pm streaming newscast, so unless it simulcasts on the other station (like KTRK's 9pm show), I'm guessing the off-network OTA newscast is gone.

Why is Denise anchoring this newscast? Doesn't she just do the 6pm? And 2. KDKA already does Pittsburgh Today Live at 9am (which is technically a lifestyle show), so I'm not sure why they'd start a 9am newscast when they already have a locally produced show that seems to be successful in that slot. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/471/#findComment-270939 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also in every other market, CBS can create a local news monopoly at this timeslot or create competition against independents/CW affiliates airing local news. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/471/#findComment-270946 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree that Drew Barrymore could move to that slot though (or she could start airing at 3 and Dr. Phil could move to 4). 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/471/#findComment-270954 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBTV could start a 9am newscast and move QC in the Morning to 10am if everyone moved LMAD to 3/2. Regardless, they need to start a 9am or 3pm newscast, there is no need for QC in the Morning AND QC at 3. Edited March 7, 2022 by Nelson R.
