This happened in October (occurring almost simultaneously with Living Oklahoma host Shelby Cashman being added the 5:00-9:00 a.m. block of the program as its first in-studio traffic anchor), and technically, it was more of a rebranding. Good Day was just an extension of the Fox 25 Morning News, but the station never referred to it in any promotions for the newscast in the five years since it expanded into the 9:00 a.m. hour.

That's what I thought because it seems as if in the promos it says Fox 25 Morning News from 5-10am but according to the TV Guide it was Fox 25 Morning News from 5-9am with Good Day Oklahoma from 9-10am.

From September 7th, 2015 to October 16th, 2015, WZVN 26 (Cable 7) used to air their mid-morning newscast at 10:00am.

 

Now its back on at 9:00am after just a month.

'Fox & Friends' co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck is leaving the network, and, for now, television to spend more time with her family.

She has come a long way since her first appearance in "Survivor: The Australian Outback".

Some Newscast changes across the State of Colorado:

 

In Denver: KDVR has brought back it's 10pm Newscast on Saturdays now competing with KCNC, KUSA and KMGH for News at 10pm 7 Days a week.

In Grand Junction: KFQX has added a 6:30pm Newscast and it's produced by CBS affiliate KREX.

 

I can tell you got that from my blog. :p

I'm going to miss him. When I go down to visit family in NOLA, I always like watching Fox 8 when he's doing the weather because he always makes it so entertaining. Amazing to see how a transplant from the Midwest became as much of a part of New Orleans as the locals down there.

Apparently there are articles that say that America is too dumb for TV news and watch it more for entertainment. Seeing as how Trump is a great example of this and Nexstar as well (if they buy Media General), I could see their point

 

And sometimes Sinclair, don't forget them.

Sinclair the most out of any TV station group with biased reporting towards conservatives (they outright say it in their website) sometimes bordering racism, especially their legacy stations (including WBFF), and now a "Terrorism Alert desk". And Fox News channel and MSNBC as well with extremes towards each of the two sides, and to a lesser extent, CNN, no denying that it too is guilty of bias sometimes.

I apologize if this has been posted before but WKBW has hired a reporter/anchor from CTV. http://talkintv.buffalonews.com/2015/11/19/ch-7-hires-reporter-anchor-from-ctv-putting-pasceris-future-up-in-the-air/

 

Speculation is that she may replace Joanna Pasceri as the Primary female evening co-anchor. Pasceri has been with Channel 7 for 22 years.

That's one of the reasons why I rather watch Sports than News. The Mainstream Media is too liberal and too biased.
