scripps going overboard with ads. when you visit a scripps website it now takes you to an ad landing page for 10 seconds before taking you to the homepage.

former WAGA morning anchor Gurvir Dhindsa is joining WGCL to be their new morning anchor. http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/10/18/crossing-the-street-in-atlanta Excellent hire in my opinion.

they've also launched something similar at WXIA called "The late feed"

WSB-TV 2.2 is getting Bounce from WATL .2 http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/2017/09/19/bounce-tv-moving-from-watl-36-2-to-wsb-2-2/

It's not unusual for WGCL to be number 2 or 3 at 11pm because of CBS's primetime lead in. Everything else though......yeah they're dead last.

yep. it aired tonight after the football game. Don't know when it premiered exactly.

what a waste of money

Tegna continues to ruin their stations. The KXTV/WTSP disease spreads to Atlanta where they are ditching the traditional 11pm news at WXIA and replace it with “The Late Feed w/ Vinnie Politan.” http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/201...ed-program-starring-vinnie-politan-august-28/

WGCL and WUVG announces news gathering partnership http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/2017/08/31/cbs46-in-newsgathering-partnership-with-univision/

some inside NBC are worried about Megyn getting the daytime slot http://www.thedailybeast.com/nbc-insiders-total-panic-over-megyn-kellys-morning-show

KBMT sent a single MMJ out to the field to cover Hurricane Harvey buy herself http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/8/28/taking-tegna-to-task

Any idea where this KUQI news/weather update is produced out of? It can't possibly be in house http://fox38corpuschristi.com/news/newsbriefs/citizens-on-high-alert-as-harvey-approaches

I didn't picture Wiegel Broadcasting buying ANYTHING. This is more surprising than Morgan Murphy Media buying the Saga stations

can someone please tell me how to make these maps? I can't figure out how to use that site

What I still don't understand is why Sinclair looks at successful stations like KUTV and WKRC and say "you keep doing what you're doing, we won't mess with you and we'll even give you special graphics". Then they look at other successful stations like KOMO and WJLA and say "we are going to meddle with your operations as much as possible, slash your budget, fire all of the people that made the station successful, fire the popular anchors, and give you the same cheap graphics everyone else gets"

sounds like WOIO's ND could get fired https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/7/25/changes-in-cleveland

I highly doubt that Sinclair will pick up either Hannity or O'Reilly. These guys have egos the size of Jupiter and will demand a salary to match that ego. There is no way Sinclair's penny pinching bosses will shell out that kind of money for these two. They'll just turn WGN America into a rerun heavy channel with programming acquired on the cheap.

it's official. WGCL has hired Steve Doerr to be their new news director. http://radiotvtalk.blog.ajc.com/2017/07/13/cbs46-hires-steve-doerr-its-seventh-news-director-in-10-years/

WDCA will premier a new 8pm newscasts from sister station WTTG http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/7/12/taking-on-news-in-dc

Megyn Kelly's 9am morning show will have a live studio audience http://www.politico.com/blogs/on-media/2017/07/11/megyn-kelly-morning-show-live-audience-240397

someone paired Fox News audio with North Korean state TV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YV4CoJQMGZs

can Gray even own WFXU outright? Will it have to be converted to a low power station (like WAGT) in order to legally own it?

Who could have possibly predicted that a 4th rate station in market 125 dropping a major network affiliation over "moral grounds" could lead to bankruptcy

Greta says she is still willing to work http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/greta-van-susteren-is-not-ready-leave-tv-1019105

why is comcast dropping them in PA?
