Re: WADL lands My Network TV

Tonight marks day 1 of independent WMYD and My Network TV WADL. Believe it or not, WADL actually changed their logo to MNTV standards in 2021 and WMYD didn't change their callsign.

TV Passport has posted schedules for the week of 9/20 and...WMYD and WADL are both sharing MNTV??

Re: Local 4 expands to 1 PM

WDIV's midday newscast, effective today, has been cut back to 12:30, since the political ads are off the air. 12:30-1 is again infomercials, but today the 12:30-1 slot was taken over by continued NBC coverage.
