TexasTVNews 1377 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Well, I'm speechless. I thought WPEC and WFLX had a great partnership of producing news in the morning and at 10pm.

jero23 105 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 I thought the news operation at WFLX was an in-house operation by Raycom Media...

Raycom is cheap in market #38, SMH Never was, WPEC always produced that newscast from day one 1991. WFLX's newscasts had Raycom graphics in them which I'm sure will continue when WPTV takes over. You would think that Raycom would pour money into that station and produce it's own newscasts but I think their building is too small for that.

WPB is a rapidly growing market that has jumped from the mid-40s to the upper 30s over the past decade, and they don't even feel the need to produce an in-house op for their long-time station there. It just proves my point I saw a long time ago, Raycom is an Alabama-based bootleg media operation.
