Trivia

[edit]

So what is up with the repeated editing and re-editing of the history of WMC-TV in Memphis? The tone on the original statement ("Did you know ... It's true.") is completely inappropriate for an encyclopedic entry. I'd rewrite the section into something more in line with the rest of the article, but having seen another user edit it back into triviaspeak once before makes me cautious of changing it again.


E.W. Scripps to get the CORDILLERA COMMUNICATIONS stations

[edit]

https://tvnewscheck.com/article/top-news/224512/scripps-buying-15-cordillera-stations-521m/

http://scripps.com/press-releases/1198-scripps-to-acquire-15-television-stations-in-10-markets-from-cordillera-communications

on October 29th, 2018 E.W. Scripps were in talks to get 15 TV stations

The stations Scripps is acquiring:

WLEX, the NBC affiliate in Lexington, Ky. KOAA, the NBC affiliate in Colorado Springs, Colo. KATC, the ABC affiliate in Lafayette, La. KSBY, the NBC affiliate in Santa Barbara-San Luis Obispo, Calif. KRIS, the NBC affiliate, and KAJA, a Telemundo affiliate, in Corpus Christi, Tex. KPAX and KAJJ, a CBS affiliate in Missoula, Mont. KTVQ, a CBS affiliate in Billings, Mont. KXLF-KBZK, the CBS affiliate in Butte-Bozeman, Mont. KRTV, the CBS affiliate, and KTGF, the NBC affiliate, in Great Falls, Mont. KTVH, the NBC affiliate, and KXLH, the CBS affiliate, in Helena, Mont. Scripps emphasized what it called the resulting “stronger Scripps portfolio:

Scripps will have the No. 1 Nielsen-rated TV stations in 11 of its 36 markets. The Cordillera stations will significantly diversify the Scripps portfolio. The 51 stations will include 18 ABC affiliates, 11 NBC affiliates, seven CBS affiliates and two Fox affiliates. Scripps will operate seven duopolies, efficiently enhancing the depth and durability of the portfolio

Bias

[edit]

Is it just me or does it seem like an advertisement when talking about interactive tv and cable stations? Sainter (talk) 16:21, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What about Stuart, Florida?

[edit]

How can the Stuart papers be Scripps' oldest if they date from the mid 1960's? The company has owned the News-Sentinel in Knoxville, Tennessee far longer than this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.246.142.16 (talk) 03:03, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cable Television Systems

[edit]

Didn't Scripps also own a bunch of cable television systems in the United States? Shouldn't that be included also? TheGoofyGolfer (talk) 01:10, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WHTV in Lansing, MI is defunct

[edit]

Please update the tables as WHTV in Lansing MI is no longer on the air. Steelbeard1 (talk) 00:30, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Stock lookup is broken

[edit]

SSP is traded on the NASDAQ Global Select market, not the NYSE.

Since the actual link is generated by the infobox, this may be a larger issue than just this one article. The stock symbols are now prepended with a market ID.
