rkolsen 1675 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 How in Chicago, do they get away with that? With CBS 2 airing the show while The U airs it too. They aren't the same episode. The secondary airings are usually episodes from two weeks prior. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannical bastard 3410 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 WPMI Local 15 in Mobile debuted "Gulf Coast Today" at 12:30 today...shortening their hour-long noon newscast to only a half hour. Andrea Ramey, their Sunday anchor anchored the show since Kelly Jones left the station several weeks ago. No replacement has been named....yet, and it looks like it be a week-to-week thing until someone is hired or promoted into the now-vacant morning/noon anchor slot. Also, WFNA CW 55 is giving longtime radio host "Uncle Henry" his own show from 5-7am beginning September 29th. http://newsradio710.iheart.com/onair/uncle-henry-40446/the-uncle-henry-show-goes-back-15095129/ This will likely be a 2-hour simulcast of his morning drive show originating from his radio studio. iHeartMedia's facilities are upstairs from WKRG and WFNA, and his station (WNTM) was once WKRG-AM when it was under common ownership by the Giddens family. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They own 14 affiliates and seven (the former O&Os/Local TV LLC stations) didn't make the list, so theirs may not expire for a while. KCPQ's affiliation agreement expires in 2018.

elfuego35 89 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I think they had a different affiliation renewal last year during the whole FOX/Tribune spat. It's both.

Although, many were speculating that FOX would get their own O&O one way or another in Seattle after the affiliation deal ended, but with all the b.s. that's going on at 21st Century FOX, I'm having doubts that that's what will happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven 1944 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Well, I guess four stations with a 6pm is too crowded for one small market. So KQDS is throwing in the towel and moving it to 5:30pm. From Northpine: MINNESOTA/WISCONSIN: After just a month with four 6 p.m. TV newscasts, Duluth is about to lose one. The city got a fourth 6 p.m. newscast when Quincy's KBJR-DT2 launched "CBS3 News at 6" in early August. Now, FOX 21 (KQDS-TV) is planning to move its 6 p.m. newscast to 5:30 on Monday, Sept. 19, according the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daybreak 269 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 WMBF news anchor Michael Maely was arrested this past weekend for DUI and speeding around 100 m.p.h. He was off for this past week. This is the second time he's ran into the law. The first time he was charged with trespassing while doing a story but I believe those charges were dropped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5262 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Sad news out of Houston for all you dog lovers out there, Radar, KPRC 2's weather dog has sadly passed away. http://www.click2houston.com/news/radar-the-weather-dog-has-died And to think, he was just 2 weeks to retiring from the force. His family won't be able to collect any of his pension. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhratbrat 423 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Couple of misc. changes. First off..to Radar he was very well beloved and I know the staff at KPRC will miss him dearly. Also, KPRC has added a 1 PM Pay to Play newscast Im asusming (kind of the same at sister station KSAT), where its called Houston Life. This expands their weekday midday newscast offerings to 2 1/2 hours a day (starting at 11:30 AM) Also, former sister station to KPRC, WPLG no longer has Constance Jones on the payroll. Her last day was yesterday after a remarkable 9 1/2 years with the station. She will be headed up to Atlanta to work for FOX 5. Currently, her noon anchor slot is being handled by Jenise Fernandez and a new traffic woman Nicole Perez takes over. In other WPLG news, as mentioned in the shoutbox, Jacey Birch was in a car accident. She is currently pregnant at the moment. Looks like the temp. replacement is going to be Shyanne Malone (their weekend evening anchor) http://www.local10.com/news/local-10-news-anchor-jacey-birch-released-from-hospital-after-crash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It starts at 11:00am, goes on until 12:30pm and then returns at 1:00pm for HL. Yep... I'm surprised Jones stayed with WPLG for that long. She was a general assignment reporter before becoming traffic/noon anchor and gave that up to Nicole Perez for a seamless transition. And best wishes to Jacey. She's been there a long time, since the beginning of the "Local 10" name and was weather anchor at first before handling traffic and now does regular news in the morning and 9:00am. Hopeful that her leg heals up quickly and comes back soon. And good to know that her unborn baby was never hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I saw it too. Not really a fan of the new music, sounds like the original theme is going through puberty. However, I noticed today, they seem to have reverted back to the old theme.

I wonder if this will be along the same lines as Next w/ Kyle Clark on KUSA? Also in WUSA-related news, it seems evening anchor Jan Jeffcoat's move to the morning newscast has been made official, as they've been airing TNF promotions featuring her with Mike Hydeck.
