  1. From Newsblues caption: Nexstar plans summer tour of Media General stations
  2. Here a WAGA video the station produce, but never made it on air about the switch.
  3. Sweeps started yesterday and goes through May 25.
  4. Here some current WKYT/ CBS Lexington, KY videos
  5. When WITI & WAGA switch from CBS to FOX both stations had the same Prime Time Set https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=o7rXOQ1qO1U;list=PL4M8-iCgRoKdOyfJE0GIvK47CxeQtuJt8
  6. WSB-TV; one of their best open in the late 2000s (circa 2007) (2009) WXIA/ 11Alive; a very stellar opening (2007) in the old building which was right behind WSB' studios. Horrible opening when Gannett (at the time) Now TEGNA mandate opening (2009)

  8. That would be a slap in the face for Lisa, to go to Good Day. However back in 1997, when Brenda Wood jump from WAGA to WXIA; Amanda Davis took over the evenings from Good Day. Lisa Rayam was doing the 5PM news and was moved to Good Day and Cynthia Good moved from weekends to 5PM. However, it didn't last long Cynthia Good left WAGA and Lisa Rayam was back on the 5PM news, and Gurvir became the new anchor of Good Day Atlanta until she left for D.C. Now in 2016 I see Karen Graham probably moving up doing all of Good Day, but what if Stephany Fisher comes and do Good Day Atlanta? Let see how this shakes out....
  9. WAGA/FOX 5's Good Day Atlanta's Gurvir Dhindsa last day is tomorrow. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/good-day-atlanta-anchor-leaving-station/169131 https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1007769295944255
  10. Yeah, I did check it out, but still listed on the out section here....Any thoughts about this move for Michael & GMA?
  11. Out: Michael Strahan leaving "Live" Kelly & Michael for GMA http://www.broadcastingcable.com/news/distribution/michael-strahan-leaving-live-good-morning-america/155734
  12. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/more-tegna-buyouts-in-st-louis-and-charlotte/168687 is saying that street beat reporter Glenn Counts at NBC Charlotte also took the buyout package as well too. Along with others in St. Louis. Still to this day I can't believe Gannett bought Belo and for some reason I think it should of been the other way around. Belo buying Gannett.
  13. Well Scotto & Trump are good friends, so that probably why she justified what she was saying.
  14. WXYZ/ Detroit News Director Dave Manney out. (Newsblues has him going to WNBC) @ns8401 How do you feel about this and what's going on at Broadcast House?
  15. I guess TEGNA couldn't milk it until May Sweeps to let these anchors have their day in the spotlight to say Goodbye!
  16. DAMN!!! I hate to say this, but KOMO didn't have this many people leaving the building when Sinclair took over. Dan Lewis was the only that did maybe "retired" so to speak.
  17. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10205647480732700
  18. Here another reporter going to the retirement center. WCVB/Boston's Jack Harper after 34 years. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/wcvb-reporter-jack-harper-to-retire-after-34-years/168365 http://www.bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/names/2016/04/13/after-more-than-three-decades-wcvb-reporter-jack-harper-retiring/pH5qzt4u6s3xdOahuP6t2M/story.html?s_campaign=bostonglobe%3Asocialflow%3Afacebook
  19. KSTP 5 Eyewitness News Open in the 80s with the famous morse code part of the theme. The last video is a full broadcast of the 10pm news back in 1985. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T_rjjfIBCc Ron Magers at KSTP back in 1979. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=uvl4AQIkAts;list=PL1HrHQCEjWBPjKB2umb1wPEAVnbxsH-mi
  20. Sounds like the new norm a syndicated show get cancelled the station starts a 4pm news. It seems certain groups are news heavy while others groups bask at the 4pm hour w/ Judge Judy, Oz, Phil, Ellen. Are there any stations carrying Ins Edition, EXTRA, Access Hollywood at 4 or 4:30?
  21. KVUE/ Austin news director takes a buyout package. http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/4/5/longtime-nd-takes-buyout
  22. Nexstar's 3.3 million dollar investment into Huntsville, Ala/ FOX affiliate. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/nexstars-huntsville-station-to-debut-expanded-newscast/167542
  23. Have you read his blog about how the folks at KGO/ABC7 are unhappy with management?
  24. http://www.ftvlive.com/ftvlivegmailcom/2016/3/30/breaking-pittsburgh-anchor-is-fired-for-facebook-post Wendy Bell Fired at WTAE/Pittsburgh Look she has a family not a fan of what she did, but I remember she was the rising star and other sites bashed her, because Michelle Wright & Sally Wiggin was pushed back for Wendy. Hopefully, she'll get another gig, and stations/on-air talent have to make sure what's right to place on social media.
  25. Keith Olbermann he wants to be back at MSNBC so bad he can taste it. Move Chris Matthews at 6pm followed by Chris Hayes at 7PM and Olbermann right at 8PM, Maddow and Lawrence. Halperin & Heiliemann should just stick with being on Morning Joe.
