DENDude 217 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 According to Scott at FTVLive, The NBC Affiliate in Casper WY NBC13 (KCWY) is cutting staff and is merging with KGWN the CBS station in Cheyenne--but there parent company Gray Television is blaming the feds for the merger. This is by far one of the dumbest things I've heard in a while. With that said i have always thought it's a little bit strange that you have the NBC & ABC Affiliates in Casper but the CBS Station is in Cheyenne. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2019/1/24/gray-blames-government-for-cuts-at-their-station Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16907-kcwy-cutting-staff/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ABC, CBS, and FOX all have different licensees, but are commonly operated as the Wyomedia group - on a very shoestring budget.
