TheRolyPoly 2466 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 On 2/4/2025 at 9:45 PM, TheRolyPoly said: I think we're being duped by this because I saw an intro for one of Indiana News Now (the new combined WFFT/WTHI/WLFI effort)'s weekend newscasts... and they were using a TWC meteorologist from Atlanta, complete with the StormTeam logo but also with TWC graphics. I'm starting to suspect that Allen will *lowkey* move forward with these plans but doing so without any fanfare. I warned y'all a month ago. I knew we were being duped. Don't be surprised if more stations do this because Allen was planning to do this all along. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/19607-all-about-allen/page/9/#findComment-304158 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megatron81 264 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I wonder if Flint will be the next to get the weather from The Weather Channel. Yup, was always Byron Allen's plan to do it he didn't care that he'd get flack for this move all in the name to cut cost. But that has always been the Byron Allen way being cheap. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/19607-all-about-allen/page/9/#findComment-304244 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Rubber 705 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 From TWC's standpoint, are the mets who are doing the local hits the same mets that are used on the national network, or are they using a different bunch? 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/19607-all-about-allen/page/9/#findComment-304246 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRolyPoly 2466 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I wasn't fooled and here's proof. Here's TWC's Ray Stagich for WTHI. The Allen TWC plan is in effect. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/19607-all-about-allen/page/9/#findComment-304345 Share on other sites More sharing options...

evv_mlis 22 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 The TWC forecast on WEVV doesn’t even have Evansville in the right county. They moved Evansville from Vanderburgh Co. to Spencer Co. These two counties don’t even border each other. Not surprised. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/19607-all-about-allen/page/9/#findComment-304377 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathannah 2453 Posted Friday at 11:13 PM Share Posted Friday at 11:13 PM The Allen Wisconsin network is having a meltdown; WAOW has been stuck having to cover WKOW's newscasts since yesterday (and having to present their news that's completely irrelevant to Madison to pad out shows), along with having to do their statecasts in the morning. At this point, you might as well consider Madison, La Crosse/Eau Claire and Wausau two-operation news markets because it seems like Byron doesn't even care about having a proper third news operation (and Rockford will be inevitably hubbed out soon enough).
