I believe the stretch of St Joseph Street in downtown Indianapolis in front of Radio One's studios is named after longtime WTLC personality Amos Brown, who passed away a year ago as well.

I always though WRTV's graphics looked terribly cheap for a market Indy's size in the mid 90's:

Anything TVbD designed for WTHR (and other stations).

What other stations? I guess I'm not up to speed on this. I know WTHR, and now KNXT.

WRTV's open looked weird around then.... It looks cheap. No effects, just a zoom in on the WRTV logo.

Personally, I don't mind the direction Nexstar is taking with MG. They haven't messed with WISH too much (except for a few occasional staff changes).

Today when I was watching their morning news, it looked like they had moved the desk in the studio out to the newsroom, as well as the weather set looking like just a flatscreen with a computer - no green screen. I'll see if I can get pictures later. Anyone think WXIN is building a new set ahead of the Tribune-Sinclair merger (or if WXIN is one of the rumored stations Fox is buying)?

WTTV's station ID is gigantic as well, with the callsigns virtually unreadable, as they look like pixels. I'll see if I can get a screencap sometime.

How long has WISH-TV been at their set? I remember various renovations done over the years, but has kept the basic shape and stature of the original set for years.

Amen, brother.

From what I can remember last time I was in Denison, Texas (my dad has an office down there), they pretty much just use "ABC Texoma" for everything else but the newscasts. They don't even put the station logo in the corner of the end of network promos.

Nice.

Didn't Dispatch have a thing with Dish a few years back? I can clearly remember WTHR talking about being pulled from Dish Network.... I guess I'm just not as far in on TV news operations, but how does this work? Does American Spirit have different contracts from Raycom? So if Mission has a dispute with DirecTV, for example, Nexstar stations would continue to stay?

Whoa. That's all.

More retrans disputes. This time, it's WTHR and DirecTV/AT&T U-verse. http://www.wthr.com/attention-directv-and-att-u-verse-subscribers
