The WNEP Newswatch 16 Thread for ALL of Northeastern and Central Pennsylvania!


Recommended Posts

Well, looks like I've done it again, started another discussion in a thread since a certain sale went through that put this station in the hands of someone with a track record of mucking up things....

 

And since it's the Music thread, it's a pretty good idea why this thread should exist.....

 

Because if a piece of news music can literally get into one's head, inspire protests that demand it's reinstatement, and a loyal bunch of viewers that are as fun to listen to for their insights....

 

Go for it moderators....you know you want to....

Swing...and a miss.

 

Oh well, some things were better left undone.  Audition may be a good tool, but it can do it's evil too.

 

 

I wonder how Northeastern & Central Pennsylvanians will react to this....would this be much worse than losing the theme entirely?

Let's go to Talkback 16...

The Tegna-fication begins Wednesday at noon.

UPDATE....according to reporter Ally Gallo...THE MUSIC IS STAYING!!!!!

Now I wonder how many people are going to complain about the Tegna graphics on the next Talkback 16? 🤔

If I remember, when the graphics switched to the Tribune set a couple years ago, Talkback showcased moaning about tiny text, ESPECIALLY with the lottery numbers.  I'd expect similar as some of the ticker text, and the temp bug are in such a thin text older folks will want that bolded up cause they won't look great on those old Zenith tube TVs.

It'll be a three hour special in prime time two weeks from now and cause all life in SWB and the Lehigh Valley to come to a halt. 😉

They'd already enlarged the time/temp text on the 4.

I'm not going to lie, part of me was hoping they'd adopt the Sixeme Son "oohs and ahhhs" just to watch the world burn.

Motion for a Cliff Schwarz / Sixeme Son West Side Story style musical duel. Marching band vs. Glee club!

Pre-empt the Wednesday comedy lineup. Bet it would get better ratings. #danceparty
