effseesee 101 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Plus Fox gets to be on a full-power station (albeit on a subchannel) in Fairbanks. KFXF was simulcast on KTVF before this change. I'm guessing Coastal Television is paying a pretty price for Fairbanks, in order to protect their Fox interests in the rest of the state. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frog 393 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 KFXF's decision to drop Fox was a financial one. "Notwithstanding significant commitments of time and resources from Gray and its talented local team, we have been unable to turn the station’s finances around," said Gray. "In light of these pressures, renewing the station’s expiring six-year Fox affiliation agreement was not financially feasible." http://www.broadcastingcable.com/news/washington/grays-kfxf-dropping-fox-affiliation/169737 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memnews 36 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Per the Memphis Commercial Appeal, former WREG news anchor Richard Ransom has been hired as the new main anchor and managing editor at crosstown rival WATN. His first day on air is September 25th and replaces Brandon Artiles, who will continue to anchor the 9:00 news on sister station WLMT. An update here: looks like Brandon Artiles has left the station after all. Apparently there was a TV send-off, but otherwise this one slipped under the radar...

He might have co-anchored with either Sonni Abatta or Heather Barnett at the time? The name and face seem familiar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkolsen 1678 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 How put of whack is WKAQ/ Telemundo Puerto Rico’s Schedule? I know they are now an hour ahead of us and I was thinking that they may have a special feed set up for them or a few changes made. But most things look different. I thought they stopped preempting from the main network years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRolyPoly 1847 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 It looks like Newsy is finally on cable. As I mentioned in the chatboxes, it showed up on Cox Gainesville on Channel 276. It's the same channel seen online and on Cincinnati Bell. It's displayed as Newsy___SD, even though its shown in Widescreen. I feel like I just got Headline News all over again!
