  1. I thought that Kelly was from FL I didn't know she was from NE best of luck to her wherever she is forecasting with in NE state.
  2. The viewers lose no matter what it isn't going to bring back competition what you will is Apollo like that don't care for local news other than the $$$ is all. And Apollo has run Cox Media into the ground or Byron Allen buying TV stations I don't see it as good news it's lose lose no matter what. The FCC still thinks it's the 60s and not 2024 as broadcast has a lot of competition mainly big tech which the FCC doesn't seem to get. I'm guessing that you could see more brokerage deals with Nexstar or Sinclair if sidecars go away they will still have their grip on things as well. That is how I see it in my opinion.
  3. Yeah, surprised that Sinclair even has a website for ARC WM it is just news from WWMT should just show the schedule with the main channel only doesn't need a website in my opinion. Looks like what Nexstar does with WOTV & now the new CW under more on the wood TV website with the info and that video with what will be on The CW tonight and the other 7 nights of primetime.
  4. I don't see Nexstar/Mission fighting for Detroit Kevin Adell blew it just like blowing that CBS deal in 94.
  5. Marissa wants to ease back in or maybe wants to do mornings to be home with family during the nights. I knew Marissa was coming back in March.
  6. Does Sinclair use ARC branding in any other markets other than Seattle & West Michigan?
  7. Glad it came back I didn't pay to be a +member since I don't really need that extra stuff that I could find on some other website for free.
  8. Glad to see that Lara Velazquez is still in the business even if it is just in freelance for WLWT.
  9. Also seems that the staff at Scripps don't know what Kate will do thinking they will keep the Scrippscasts which were DOA from the start, if I was the CEO it be a fat NO on the Scrippscast.
  10. CW-WMI Sunday no ACC Women's Basketball or LIV Golf Heartland at 12PM to 1PM & First 48 will be in a 3 hour block as it was a 2-hour block before that.
  11. A lot of those switches were CW+ The CW West Michigan is just repeats from WOTV, Wood TV, & WXSP in syndication with a few syndication being their own.
  12. Yup, Kevin Adell screwed it why he needs Jesse Jackson to speak, although I'm surprised that Mission didn't drop the sale as of yet is Nexstar just running the clock out until May when the deal becomes dead?
  13. I'm not surprised Nexstar is suing the FCC as they should since the 3 on The FCC abuse their power way too much thinking that it is still the 1960s which it isn't with the outdated rules that need to be fixed. Broadcasters are facing Big Tech since the days of 3 to 4 channels are over and the FCC acts like there isn't any competition when there clearly is with Big Tech. The 3 on The FCC don't get it and don't like business at all which isn't right.
  14. I also liked Kelly as well all the best wherever she is going next.
  15. I don't get why Scripps even does news for Fox47 out in Lansing that should be Fox17 doing the newscast for WSYM for Fox47 never should've gotten rid of Gray doing the news for Fox47 a few years ago. Fox47 met Brad does the weather for Fox47 at Fox17 studios.
  16. I hope that person was fired WTF how does someone approve that photo I wouldn't have shameful what KGW-TV did do better.
  17. I knew that Judge Judy repeats were going to be renewed although quite surprised that TEGNA wasn't named in the article about this renewal they weren't mentioned either for Judy Justice either. Who The Bleep Is That isn't going to get a second season that was only in a handful of TV markets largely in the big markets a few smaller/midsize markets like in West Michigan at the start of the new year. Crime Stories is being pitched for syndication for the 2024-05 season hosted by former Access Hollywood & ET anchor Nancy O'Dell always liked Nancy.
  18. I'm surprised that CBS hasn't sold the TV stations that are now indies in ATL, Tampa, Seattle, Indy that is Start TV station I don't know if those are the only indies they have thou. WWMT is a strong CBS station in West Michigan I'm guessing it's because they cover more Kazoo than the other TV stations that are all in GR although Wood TV does have a news burro in downtown Kazoo for a few years now. But with the cuts by Sinclair for WWMT they hub the Sat newscast at 6PM & 11PM with only weather & sports being from the station I wonder if it is coming out of South Bend? Wood TV is number 1 when it comes to news then WWMT. Sorry going off topic.
  19. Geraldo going to do specials on UFO's although seems that NewsNation has stopped the UFO specials. Or maybe he'll go and try to find Al Capone's vault once again like he did when he had a trashy talk show LOL. Geraldo shouldn't have been fired over at Fox News.
  20. Scripps cut the weekend morning Met's job Isbella Hulsizer a few weeks ago at Fox17.
  21. Has any TV station group taken Investigate TV or is this only Gray TV stations in the markets they are in. I know Gray said that they would be selling it to TV stations that wanted to air Investigate TV, I guess no takers for that cheap show.
  22. Laura Velazques moved to Denver after working many years in West Michigan Wood TV for KDVR she only lasted a year in Denver. And Laura moved to become a met at ACCUWeather she is suing them because they laid her off during COVID then she returned to West Michigan to work for Fox17 for about 6 or 7 months and left in Oct of 2021. Rumors are that she in the ND didn't get along they were co-workers at Wood TV why Lara didn't last long at Fox17. I saw former WWMT weekend met Brian James doing the weather from time to time for Wood TV when Ellen was off since she just had a baby. Brian James didn't last all that long with WWMT I think his wife didn't like the weather or had issues because they moved back to Texas. Brian is from Michigan his parents got to see him do the weather. I wonder if that is what Brian will be doing for the smaller Nexstar TV stations around the country doing those tape weather segments.
  23. Looks like on Sat the news is taped from another Sinclair TV station for WWMT 6PM & 11PM news other than weather & sports. As I said ARC West Michigan doesn't air news at 10PM on Sat.
  24. I liked TVNewscheck I checked it every day for the news or just skim the headlines from around the web.
  25. I think that Gray try's and gets Salt Lake City NBC from KSL since they for a long time wouldn't air some prime time shows on NBC for some reason. One of the few TV stations not to do that.
