Rusty Muck 4164 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Just to let you know... KTVU 2 is not airing "FOX NFL Kickoff" next Sunday, moving it to KICU 36, in favor of KTVU Mornings on 2 and KTVU FOX 2 Sports Weekend while KPTV 12 is putting "FOX NFL Kickoff" on sister station KPDX 49, in favor of the 8:00 a.m. hour of Good Day Oregon. I'm not sure if anybody else is doing something like this. WJW isn't even clearing the program, instead opting for their 11am news and the weekly Howard Hanna real estate showcase at 11:30am. It wasn't even scooted onto 8.2 Antenna TV. Not that I really mind. Between "Tailgate 19" on WOIO (a de facto local lead-in to the Browns games at 1pm) and the Browns-produced house organ programming on WEWS, it probably wouldn't be missed that much.

Rusty Muck 4164 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 And speaking of WEWS, they are adding local newscasts on Sunday morning... from 8am to 9am (following GMA) and from 10am to 11am (following This Week). That would leave WOIO as the only Big 4 affiliate in Cleveland that doesn't have a morning newscast on both Saturday and Sunday. Oh, and WKYC is bumping the start time for their Saturday morning news to 5am next week, along with the E/I block moving back to Saturday morning.

Oh, and WKYC is bumping the start time for their Saturday morning news to 5am next week, along with the E/I block moving back to Saturday morning. So, WKYC was carrying NBC Kids on Sundays? There have been stations that have aired NBC's children's blocks on both Saturday and Sunday in the past (KFOR used to split the TNBC and Discovery Kids on NBC blocks in this manner, and occasionally still did this for the Qubo and NBC Kids blocks whenever there's free time on Sundays due to a late-morning sports event the day before), but how'd that work out what with them having to air their Sunday morning newscast, "Today" and "Meet the Press" as well? WOIO 19 has a Sunday morning newscast from 7:00-9:00 a.m. Hence why Myron stated WOIO as being "the only Big 4 affiliate in Cleveland that doesn't have a morning newscast on both Saturday and Sunday", since its Saturday morning lineup is filled mainly by the CBS Dream Team and "CBS This Morning Saturday" (that I only found out about when I did research for an update to WOIO's Wikipedia article a couple weeks ago).

TheRolyPoly 1844 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 So, WKYC was carrying NBC Kids on Sundays?. Nope. It was on at 12:30pm weekday afternoons after LIVE on Lakeside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This past TV season, WKYC stuck most of the E/I block at 12:30pm weekdays, with one show airing at the 11am Saturday hour to fulfil the three hour FCC requirement. Infomercials are now airing at the 12:30pm weekday timeslot as of this week. Prior to WKYC's major news expansion last September, NBC Kids ran from 10:30-noon and 12:30-1pm on Saturday, and from 7a-8a on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOMatrix 1295 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 WOIO 19 has a Sunday morning newscast from 7:00-9:00 a.m. Yeah, but WOIO doesn't air a Saturday AM newscast unlike 3, 5, and 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.L. Hughes 746 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 San Antonio's KLRN has gotten into the news business. As of Monday (September 14), the station began airing news updates four times per night before PBS primetime programs between 6:00 and 10:00 p.m. on Monday through Fridays. The updates are being anchored by former KENS and WOAI anchor/reporter Bruce Kates, who serves as an executive producer for the station's public affairs program "Texas Week with Rick Casey". The station is considering eventually expanding into a longer-form format similar to news programs carried by other PBS stations such as NJTV and OETA that focus on local issues.

It seems weird that they're adding an hour to the end of the program instead of at the beginning; KOKH is the only English language news-producing station in Oklahoma City that hasn't expanded their weekday morning newscast someway into the 4:00 a.m. hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a Sinclair thing for some reason not to start their news at the same time with all the others. WZTV is the same way as they start their morning news a half-hour later than when WKRN, WSMV, and WTVF begin theirs at 4am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
