CircleSeven 1963 Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 WTTG is adding a new 4pm hour in the spring, competing against WRC & WJLA. They didn't announce an exact date. But could they be launcing before the May books? 1

I didn't see any indication on Keller's Twitter note on where he's headed next. I saw him anchoring last weekend and was thinking about how he's underrated on air.

So once this launches, WTTG will air weekday news from 4am-11am, 4pm-7:30pm, 8pm-8:30pm (via WDCA), 9pm-9:30pm (via WDCA), and 10pm-midnight. That's damn near the level of KTLA.

hmaxhanson 650 Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) I saw a promo for CourtTV's launch airing on Grit today. If you want anymore proof that CourtTV will take Grit's place when it debuts in May, I'll tell you that Grit's advertising base is now almost entirely comprised of 1-800 insurance/medicare/IRS ads. The all-westerns format is just a place-holder/filler for them until CourtTV is ready to go. If Grit were serious about staying on, they would at least acquire some stronger programming.

Again, it's possible you're reading too much into this. I looked at the affiliate lists for Court TV and Grit (available here and here) on RabbitEars and some of the latter's charter affiliates that also carry Grit are shown to be adding subchannels where Court TV will be carried. If Court TV was designed as a replacement for Grit, RabbitEars (given its access to sources) would not be putting the proposed Court TV channel placements on the same subchannels as Grit. 1

CourtTV already announced it's affiliates? That I didn't know. Well, for now, there are only 13 of them, most of which feature Grit on another station. I can imagine the roster will expand greatly before or after the launch. I'm sure many station managers are desperate to move up from ther 60+ skewing Grit to the younger CourtTV.

TexasTVNews 1379 Posted March 21, 2019 Author Posted March 21, 2019 I gotta to remind you, the new CourtTV already has distribution agreements with station group owners including Tribune, Scripps and Univision that will enable it to reach 50% of the U.S. at launch, with cable carriage representing 25% of cable homes. Tribune Broadcasting will carry Court TV in 22 markets, including New York (WPIX); Los Angeles (KTLA); Chicago (WGN); Philadelphia (WPHL); Dallas-Fort Worth (KDAF); Houston (KIAH); Miami-Fort Lauderdale (WSFL); Denver (KWGN); St. Louis (KTVI or KPLR); Seattle-Tacoma (KCPQ), Washington (WDCW); and Sacramento, Calif (KTXL).

JCB4TV 352 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 From The Shores of Lake Texoma, KTEN Chief Meteorologist David Siple announced today on his Facebook page that tomorrow, March 22, will be his last day at the Lockwood station.

Hopefully CourtTV will either replace Grit on WJTC or WFNA (or LaffTV on WKRG) in the Mobile/Pensacola area. Why Nexstar added these affiliates when WJTC already had Grit and WALA already had Laff is beyond me....
DENDude 224 Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 TexasTVNews, what is KWGN going to drop to carry Court TV? THIS TV Comet Charge! or will they launch channel 2.5. My guess would be they would drop charge!.

You can easily stream those via STIRR so why the need for the channel space?
rkolsen 1697 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 WBOC is installing a solar farm with 2,088 panels in the back lot of their property. It is designed to power their entire facility with 908 kw. Construction should start later this month and end in June. http://www.wboc.com/story/40173344/wboc-breaks-ground-on-solar-farm

I wonder how many other stations (radio, TV, etc) would consider a solar array.
