Although this almost certainly won't happen again, ABC needs to buy 12. Only then can everything be fixed. I say the same for 25-66, if NBC bought the station(s). But that won't happen, most definitely not 25-66.

SJL put the screws to Gray when they sold 12 and the Toledo station as a package. There is no way those stations were worth that kinda money then, or now.

Well, I don't think most stations are worth what people pay for

I am confused as to why local channels have to emphasize news in their monikers. After all they are not a news network and the majority of their programming is NOT news.
Prior to the acquisition by CapCities/ABC in 1995, WJRT branded as "News Channel 12".


Shortwave is the ORIGINAL satellite radio.

You mean “News Channel Hell”, as it was once called on air by an anchor.
