More news from the newsroom

A new reporter on his waay :) A liitle late on updating this but he's from Mississippi, (org. from Ohio) will start on Nov 3rd...Mikelyn's replacement, now that she has gone to the world of PR.

Our Chief Meterologist is in the hospital...sounds like he will be ok, they just have to keep him there for a bad infection, make sure it clears up.

Interesting news that I just found out...apparently WIAT went for 37 mil? :) that's intersting...you mean we actualy sold for more than a B-ham station? We were at 41.6 if memory serves.

Anyway looking like new promos coming for the new morning show with TW Starr!! So will be looking foward to those...hmm

slow news day today...waiting on a candle light vigil that will be at 6...um, yeah

We DID get free Domino's pizza (an agreement) and free candy bars (from the news director) today though!! So happy Thursday everyone!

Waay over there... That's the waay to do it... Sorry... ;) That slogan is waay overused. HA!

Hey...we are still a small station for the market size...not as much equipment, people, etc...but we're still doing pretty darn good (I know you posted that for me ;)).

True..but I'd still have figured that you guys would be making more money...intersting note is that the guys who just sold us actually took a loss...sold us for like some odd mil less...

Isn't WIAT one of those "outsourced" stations? Correct me if I'm wrong...

outsourced? ...they did the newscasts for another station, (WB chan 21) until just recently, after the Siclair experement failed there...

The real difference at WIAT, the knowlege that I have, is that they only usually have one package (about a single story anyway) a cast so that they can cram as many stories in 30 minutes as possible. = fewer on air talent.
