tyrannical bastard 4083 Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) WSMV has a new news director...Mitch Jacob, who worked at WJLA and WSYX. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2019/2/26/news-director-change-in-nashville While his time in DC has been debateable (overshadowed by the fact of WJLA being taken over by Sinclair), WSYX was a solid #2 under his watch and has always been one of the most successful and profitable Sinclair stations. This and the new GM hopefully can move WSMV forward from the bad press it has garnered over the past year or so due to....well...we all know...cough cough....dk....cough cough....among other changes, layoffs and lawsuits... And could they bury the hatchet and decide to bring her back perhaps? Edited February 27, 2019 by tyrannical bastard Typo

He made WSYX more aggressive in their news coverage, there were some spikes in #2 at WSYX but it wasn't across the board in all newscast. Jamie Justice the current ND she couldn't keep the momentum going... I think he couldn't do what he did at WSYX for WJLA. A different market and Sinclair was ready to cut that budget at WJLA and he resigned during Sweeps. So he has his work cut out at WSMV.

Some of the momentum for WSYX was also lost once WBNS poached their talent (Yolanda Harris and Pete Scalia) and sterilized them. (You won't see this kind of "personality" when Yolanda is paired with Jerry Revish.) 1
