MidwestTV

The people who say they'll never watch again are often the ones who call or write back a week later to complain again. They're either idle threats or they hate watch.

...."Streaming News Leader?" Seriously? That may be worse than KSN's "We've Got Your Back."

Public affairs people aren't always the most chatty to the media.

I'm appalled KETV didn't already have a midday newscast.

Not bad at all. Text may be a bit large. What really disappoints me is that they didn't get rid of that awful music.

The game is canceled unless one of the teams need the game to become bowl eligible, in which case they'll play it in December.

Strong storms knocked KLKN in Lincoln off the air for several hours last night. The transmitter was eventually able to broadcast late last night before being knocked off air again sometime around 7 this morning. They're back up now.

Can we please discuss the horrendous strobe light effect in this and the Fox version? Like holy crap those newscasts needed to have come with a seizure warning.

If they're not careful KCTV will turn into the WGCL of the Midwest.

That's a clever little promo. Why are they switching?

The gigantic 'NEWS' is what makes it so obnoxious. KOMU is owned by Mizzou, but they've done a generally good job of avoiding actually looking like a college station. This, though, lol. Those white things behind the logo look inspired from Media General wayyyyy back when

Probably because they have the stigma of "former CNN anchor" attached to their name.

Lisa Benson, who has an ongoing racial lawsuit against KSHB, has left after 14 years (and 3 months). http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2018/6/14/reporter-that-sued-kc-station-is-now-gone-from-the-station Dee Jackson, a sports anchor/reporter, also has a racial discrimination lawsuit pending. It'll be interesting to see if he leaves next.

Can't wait to see how big the hashmark ratings will be.

That may be intentional since we heard the rumor CBS is mulling the idea of showing Glor as little as possible since ratings haven't done well under him. Speaking of ratings, FTVLive reports that The Wrap reports CBSEN's ratings are consistently down since he took over. Makes you wonder if CBS thinks they made a mistake.

It's just a horizontal version of the vertical logo.

He seems personally offended for some reason. I maintain that he's so upset because he doesn't want the image of one of his reporters nearly getting killed on live TV out there on the internet. That, or he's upset that FTVLive kind of implied that Lewis knowingly sent his reporter in close to a very dangerous situation without thinking much of her safety.

So is the quality of these better or worse? Is it literally one HUGE LED screen, or is it similar to a rear projection? I would think you'd get higher quality out of multiple large monitors than one large one that could have a washed out appearance.

Sounds like the ND is trying to avoid bad publicity about the safety of his reporters, but is instead getting bad publicity for how he's reacting to it. The hostility is totally unwarranted.

I think it's simple; they just won't do one.

And how hard is it to fly a drone or something to shoot footage at night? That seems like a lazy excuse.

Adweek, for whatever reason, has decided to restrict site access to TVNewser, TVSpy, and AdAgency unless you sign up. That means unless you decide to make an account, all you can do is read the headlines and comments. It's easily one of the most bizarre and pompous decisions I've seen of a website.

It's 11p.m. Why does their open have daytime shots from the middle of the day?

Cassie Wilson has been promoted to chief meteorologist at KRNV from mornings.

those lower thirds are WAY too high. what were they thinking?
