NEOMatrix 1295 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Lemme guess, WKYC’s morning show has gone full social media? I guess Tegna figured that WKYC can maintain 2nd place. Question is, can WOIO or WEWS finally capitalize on Tegna-itis finally infecting the Digital Broadcast Center on Lakeside Avenue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRolyPoly 1839 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I heard that WEWS has now overtaken WKYC for second place. Viewers are not liking the new format on 3. Cleveland is now home to three pieces of shits (3 because of the new format, 5 because of Scripps and 19/43 because they just joined way too late in the news race + the "taboo" format turned viewers away) and just one runaway winner (8 because it does news the best + most veteran anchoring/reporting staff). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLETVFan 363 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 (edited) I would rather have Scripps than TEGNA right now. One of the new hard hitting questions WKYC is asking its AM viewers is whether or not beans belong on chili!

(Making sure that it’s not something else). So glad that the news here in the morning is straight newscast aside from some the trending segment and WJZ’s Manic Monday’s.

I’m fine with that kind of stuff on morning shows, but do it on a 4:30-9am show, not a 4:30-7am. Edited October 16, 2018 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
east-tx-tv 105 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 It's bad enough when stations like KYTX blow out anyone locally-known to the viewers and replace them with no-names/talking-heads (which already does them no favors in the ratings game compared to longtime top-banana KLTV), but then let's add something like mum craftiness and chili ingredient debates, oh and an almost-laughable seat-of-the-pants high school football wrap-up show on Friday nights... IMO, Tegna hasn't exactly *added* value to their investment. And as for WFAA (another IMO), if Mike Shapiro (longtime past VP/GM) or Marty Haag (longtime past ND) could see what's up on Young Street now, they'd be spinning in their graves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLETVFan 363 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Dave Chudowsky has officially been named the new weekday morning news co-anchor with Maureen Kyle on WKYC. He replaces John Anderson, who, of course, is no longer at the station. Al Pawlowski replaces Dave at the weekend sports desk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fluff and gimmicks, especially in the AM, are getting out of hand, and Super Dave is Super Bland in the new role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DENDude 184 Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Tegna's syndicated Daily Blast Live is off to a bit of a rough start. Two of the show's host got into a disagreement that went viral for the wrong reasons. So much so that producers have been trying to stop footage from going viral. Too late. https://www.mediaite.com/tv/watch-this-painfully-brutal-panel-show-exchange-you-are-the-living-embodiment-of-white-privilege/ https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/daily-blast-white-privilege_us_5b9abfd5e4b0b64a336d12a3 DBL is starting to pick up viewers here in the Denver market slowly, but that's for it's 2nd live showing on KTVD, while NEXT on KUSA is way down from what the 6PM newscast used to be. KCNC's 6pm was ahead of "NEXT" the last 2 weeks of October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
