  1. FTVLIVE.com is reporting WTSP's Chief Meteorologist Jim Van Fleet is out! http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2016/9/21/out-the-door-in-tampa
  2. Well, I guess Jan Jeffcoat moving to the morning news, Andrea doing noon news. 5pm Adam/Lesli, 6pm Leon/Lesli, &7pm, Bruce Johnson, 11pm Leon/Adam- Now that's my wishful casting. However, TEGNA probably wouldn't go for it though.
  3. It would behoove W*USA9 to pick-up Leon Harris for their evening shows at 6&11pm.
  4. How in Chicago, do they get away with that? With CBS 2 airing the show while The U airs it too.
  5. a.) Not to sound like an ageist, but Amanda is in her 60s now and is probably focusing on her sobriety. b.) Karen going to go work for the deaf community. c.) Sounds like FOX O&O is trying to streamline as much as it can with WAGA being a powerful O&O outlet. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/waga-morning-anchor-leaving/177306 http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/2016/08/31/good-day-atlanta-host-karen-graham-leaving-fox-5-after-16-years/ Erica's getting married and going to work for WNBC/ 4 New York. http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/2016/08/31/investigative-reporter-erica-byfield-leaving-wsb-tvchannel-2-action-news-after-five-years/
  6. No, I agree with you on that. I just hate seeing every station wanting to identify itself with affiliate/channel #/News at the end. That's generic branding I like to call it. I feel tv stations use to have it own identity back in the day. Yes, some had Eyewitness News, NewsChannel, Action News, etc. I think they should of keep the NEWS 10 brand.
  7. No surprise here, and I was told It already in play, and I was told this a year ago. I've been hoping TEGNA/Gannett becomes winner of 'BNS & 'THR. End of an era for the Wolfe Family which has been a staple in the Capital City.
  8. Pls, God don't speak CBS Action News horrible brand news just either go back to 19 Action News or CBS 19. WFTS has a horrible brand name ABC Action News. Might as well place that up there with WGCL's Clear News.
  9. WSB-TV continue the trends of it powerful domination by is corporate newsapaper ajc. http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/2016/08/15/atlanta-tv-ratings-wsb-tv-dominates-most-of-the-day-in-local-news-and-programming/ Judge Judy at 4pm beats Action News at 4pm.. Somebody call John & Monica out of retirement.
  10. WGN's Robert Jordan to retire next month. http://www.robertfeder.com/ http://www.robertfeder.com/2016/08/14/wgns-robert-jordan-to-retire-with-profound-gratitude/#more-12133
  11. KTVK (then ABC affiliate) 1985 Midday News ABC & KTVK promo 84Vote KTRK Oprah/Cameron Harper on KTVK KTVK 86 Promo
  12. I agree he does some eye-opening stories about what going on at xyz operation I'll give him that. However, I do wonder if there's an ax to grind with certain companies because he applied for a job, and was turn away. Idk, but you're right about that.
  13. 11Alive needs a brand new logo, it been around since 1993. Whew, but for some reason I like the KARE 11 logo which has been around since the 1980s. However Gannett/TEGNA tend to shop for barging basement logos. Idk Y....
  14. WEWS-TV5 Eyewitness News (back in the day) Give Me Five promo (95/96ish) best promo for WEWS (they should be bring it back)
  15. So there a breaking story on FTVLIVE.com but it does sounds like he HATES FOX O&O; if you ever read his stories he calls it "The Firm" base of the novel/movie. Not only is he snarky, but at times he out for blood too. http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/8/6/breaking-fox-oo-ep-busted-for-child-porn
  16. Now KSAZ (KTSP-TV) when Channel 10 was CBS: The Look is Channel 10 Now KSAZ (KTSP-TV) When Channel 10 was CBS: We've Got the Touch & We're The Team Promos Now WJW (WJKW) When Channel 8 was CBS: We've Got the Touch
  17. Do you see Art Rascon doing 5, 6 news while Erik will do 4pm/10pm? Also are they still doing the (3) team of anchors at 6:30 or 10pm still?
  18. http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/8/5/san-antonio-gm-looks-for-the-leak Have you read today story about management and Channel 4? How do you both feel about this story? He can be very snarky at times, and other times shock when he praises people too.
  19. WRTV main anchor Todd Connor is out. (I wonder what going on at these Scripps shops?) http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/wrtv-anchor-todd-connor-out/175378
  20. More comings at WAGA/ FOX5 http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/7/27/fox-aka-the-firm-shaking-up-atlanta-anchors
  21. I think they thought she was going to take that buyout offer with her age & years of services, and this was the only way to keep her on board.
  22. WAGA-TV Eyewitness News at Noon last few months as being CBS.
  23. I know that WVEE had to cut some personalities paychecks over the last few years, so it profitable yes, but they've had many cuts over the last 7-8 years. http://www.tvnewsinsider.com/story/cbs-planning-to-spin-off-radio-stations-in-ipo/ Les, wants his hands in CBS and will fight the Redstones left/right.
  24. I see Colleen leaving after the sale is completed. I see her leaving in 2017 giving 30 years to the station next year.
  25. Why not have her do (2) newscast, which wouldn't be hard to do, and I don't think should would want to come in just to do (1) newscast. WSB being the leader likes to have a heavy bench of anchors.
