Weeters 1981 Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Maybe the new owners will invest in some new equipment. WFRV produced the "Return to Titletown" special that aired statewide after the superbowl and it aired in beautiful 1970's-quality SD. I've seen better things come off of quad tape.

I guess you haven't found out what Nexstar is all about. Few groups come any cheaper.
Samantha 2907 Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Or come with weirder web site titles. "foxvalleyhomepage.com" or "wearegreenbay.com", here we come! Actually, there IS good news. WJMN could get local news, giving WLUC serious competition in the Marquette news race.
jdcnow 14 Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 (Wonders if they'll rename the website to IceboxHomepage.com, or some other gawd-awful cheesiness...lol)
jero23 105 Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Ironically, WFRV/WJMN will be reunited with its former CBS O&O sister stations of KUTV, KEYE-TV, WTVX, WTCN-CA, WLWC through this transaction. I honestly think CBS should have held on to these properties until a better owner stepped to the plate when they wanted to put these stations up for sale. Nexstar has such trash as far as I'm concerned...
Chief-O 34 Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Or come with weirder web site titles. "foxvalleyhomepage.com" or "wearegreenbay.com", here we come! You need to change your name to Kreskin. As of today, their website is now "wearegreenbay.com".
Samantha 2907 Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 I've changed my signature to commemorate this. Yeah!
Viper550 294 Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 You need to change your name to Kreskin. As of today, their website is now "wearegreenbay.com". And WJMN now has a separate site at marquettehomepage.com
socalnewsguy 11 Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 I guess you haven't found out what Nexstar is all about. Few groups come any cheaper. Indeed. Nexstar would probably use Flip cameras in-studio if they could get away with it.
trev57 46 Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 I guess you haven't found out what Nexstar is all about. Few groups come any cheaper. That may be true but WFRV did become the first station in Green Bay to go HD after Nexstar purchased them. Granted, they probably had already been in the process of going HD before the sale, but still...
Samantha 2907 Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 And WJMN now has a separate site at marquettehomepage.com Almost nailed that one too!
