bmasters1 378 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Because WKMG was once very nearly owned by Columbia Pictures (and then known as WCPX in anticipation of that ownership [CPX being shorthand for Columbia Pictures]), I have a question about that: If WCPX (as 'KMG was known then) was actually owned by Columbia (which of course it wasn't), would the newscasts have had a Columbia logo at the end (the Torch Lady or equivalent)? It would have been far-out to Orlando viewers of the time to see a movie studio have its television logo on a newscast, I strongly believe.
