  1. WXSP aired ACC football in the finals years before they went to Fox Sports/Bally Sports in 2019. Also aired The Big10 Football/Men's Basketball from 2004/07 before Big10 Network. Before that WXMI Fox17 aired syndication Big10 Football/Men's Basketball for 9 years 95-04.
  2. I know of The Parents Television Censorship Council they had to settle with WWE 21 years ago only time the group had to apologize for $3Million. I don't see this going anywhere it's wasting The FCC time with this challenge as this happened on the cable side and not on the local side. It's a stunt by Preston & his group to get $$$ like The PTC and other censorship groups as well. I don't see Fox losing its license as it shouldn't.
  3. The basic cable you can hear the F-Bomb a lot more than decades ago they have relax than in years past and also censorship orgs have moved onto streaming services, than cable or broadcast primetime TV. Little Demon did get attacked by The PTC & 1Million Moms which doesn't have 1 million members last fall. Otherwise, both leave cable & over the air broadcast alone. I think that over the air The Big 4 should try and talk with the FCC to let the F-Bomb fly since they use the other swear words which I don't believe are swear words other than the F-Bomb & and the C word.
  4. I was surprised that the leakers were outed I thought they wouldn't be outed for sending the memo to media websites.
  5. Just like in 2019 at this same time as well lasted for 2 months and DirecTV & Nexstar reached a new deal in Sep. I wonder if this one will last longer since DirecTV is suing Nexstar.
  6. I saw Amy on Outnumbered on Fri and she was on today on Fox Weather was Amy doing Sat as well?
  7. Bill Steffen only has one segment from his Man Cave every Mon on the 4PM newscast I know he post that to his blog on Wood TV's website Bill also did the national forecast for NewsNation before he was out the door. Bill has had a great run in West Michigan working at WZZM & then moving to the rival Wood TV surprised that WZZM didn't have a non-compete in Bill's contract when it was up in 2001 and that he was on Wood TV ASAP.
  8. WXMI Fox17 has replaced The List & ICrime is now a full hour 2PM to 3PM. Glad that The List got canceled as it wasn't a very good show to begin just like DBL on TEGNA's WZZM needs to be cancel DBL as well in my opinion.
  9. KSKN new logo kinda looks like WXSP logo when they were UPN with the circle at the end of the letters.
  10. Seem that on Sat they had download the Fox Weather App while running the long form programs couldn't get Steve, Kendell or Marissa to do reports on the serve storms Sat night? Fox Weather did great job on Thur with the live updates I wish that Kelly would wear the blue frames more often she looks good in the blue frames.
  11. I think Janice Dean should fill in from time to time since there short staff. I think it is good that they are putting Kelly's show on a loop until 6AM when Fox Weather is live again, Fox Weather Tonight With Kelly.
  12. I know that Wood TV is number 1 by a mile it isn't close I thought that WWMT was number 2 as there promos say there the number 1 station from sign on to sign off largely because of syndication, & WZZM number 3 just because of it being a legacy station only. I was surprised that Hearst sold WZZM in the 90s to what is now TEGNA yeah, would like to Hearst to buy WZZM again.
  13. It will be interesting where Person, Place Or Thing goes to Sinclair, Nexstar or Scripps since TEGNA doesn't ever pick up syndication for WZZM in West Michigan. I wonder if ICrime has been renewed or not and if Elizabeth would remain as host or get a new host because Elizabeth has her own show on NewsNation. 48 Hours the same 3 TV groups I said before.
  14. I didn't see this one coming I thought the earliest would've been 2025 in my opinion, PGA commish shouldn't have ever invoked the 9/11 family victims about LIV Golf in my opinion that was grandstanding to me.
  15. Inside The NFL is a good pick up for The CW surprised that Inside The NFL was always cable only until Paramount+ the last 2 years. I thought that Inside The NFL was in syndication before going to HBO & then Showtime.
  16. Stadium also airs Minor League Baseball Wed, Sat, & Sun I'm guessing that WXSP will have to find something new on .2 channel 178 on Spectrum in Kazoo whenever the White Sox & Bulls owner takes over soon. WXMI Fox17 Kids Club Miranda was the face of Fox17 before their was a 10PM News in Jan 1999 and the show was Fast Forward I watched that from time to time Sat at 12PM. I met Miranda at Kalamazoo County Fair in summer of 91 she was handing out Garfield bookmarks going into the fair. Miranda now works for Wood TV since 2005 or 2006 has a segment on 8 West Miranda Where You Live which was 30 minute show for many years on the weekends did daily for 2 or 3 years but Nexstar just cut to the final 10 minutes of 8 West in 2020 or 2021.
  17. I'll admit I was surprised Wood TV aired ES.TV seems it's repeats than new content even when the guide says it's new yeah, it isn't a good show Byron would be smart to put music videos for 30 minutes than ES.TV in my opinion.
  18. I'm surprised that WBNX hasn't put out there fall schedule yet since there always the first to release what will be on for the fall, even know I don't live in Cleveland.
  19. Janice Dean only did promos for The Fox Weather app/website as I sometimes see it while watching Fox Weather kinda surprised that Fox doesn't have promos for Fox Nation or the big Fox must be only on Tubi where they put promos for the Fox shows & Fox Nation. I was surprised to see long form today and Weather Channel had the weekday lineup as is.
  20. WXMI Fox17 never aired The Now only daily they aired was Newsfeed after a year they moved it from 7PM to 4:30AM in July 2021 and ditched it and brought back the 4:30AM local newscast. I'm surprised that The List is still on the air I thought that it have been canceled years ago been on for 10 or 11 years ago.
  21. Why I assume was maybe the family wasn't interested in the TV media after Ed passed away is all.
  22. Why did Fox Weather get rid of Fox Weather Wild never saw it as I didn't have Fox Weather at the time when Wild was a show, or at lease make it be a once a month show for that wild weather videos from around the country and world as well. Fox Weather Wild sounded like TWC Weather Gone Viral. I saw that Kendall was out in the field in the Windy City.
  23. I thought that Sunbeam would've been sold when Ed passed away a couple of years ago the family must like being in the media business. Sunbeam was all news before the other major broadcast groups followed suit 10 to 15 years ago when Sunbeam was all news in the 90s.
  24. I didn't see Mission buying WADL which will be branded CW38 guessing MYNet TV will be aired late at night.
  25. I hope TEGNA makes Soo Kim sell his shares trying the hostel takeover and merger with Standard General I'm hoping TEGNA sues Standard General & Soo Kim for breach of contact.
