WTVQ aims at Fox by launching 10 p.m. news

Lexington's ABC affiliate plans to launch a new channel and begin a 10 p.m. local newscast in January to compete directly with the highly successful Fox 56 newscast.


WTVQ, last place in local news ratings, also plans to re-air some of its newscasts from its ABC channel on the new MyNetworkTV channel. The move is possible because TV stations now transmit multiple channels using digital technology.


WTVQ will launch the channel Jan. 1, adding it to its current ABC and 24/7 local weather channels.


"We're building a new TV station essentially from scratch," said WTVQ General Manager Chris Aldridge.


The station has been airing MyNetworkTV shows since November from 8 to 10 p.m. on its weather channel. That channel, 36.2, will become the MyNetworkTV channel, with local news. The weather channel will become 36.3.


The 36.2 channel is available over the air to those with digital tuners and on Insight's digital cable lineup. Aldridge said the station is in negotiations with Insight to add it to its main cable lineup.


Aldridge said launching the half-hour 10 p.m. newscast is "a great opportunity for us to extend our brand and give people the choice of a second 10 o'clock news."


He also noted how successful Fox affiliate WDKY, which has a full hour of local news, has been in the time slot.


WDKY General Manager Michael Brickey was "shocked" that WTVQ would add a 10 p.m. newscast, because it cut its 5 p.m. newscast on ABC earlier this year.


But Aldridge said the station considers it to be news on a "totally different station," plus the number of television viewers is significantly higher at 10 p.m. than at 5 p.m.


The strength of the Fox newscast is nationally known. Earlier this year, it was ranked eighth in terms of viewership for all Fox affiliate newscasts in the country, Brickey said.


"And in many ratings periods, it is the highest-rated late evening news in this market. Period," said Robert Thomas, news director at CBS affiliate WKYT-27, which produces the newscast.


More people are watching TV at 10 p.m. than at 11 p.m., and WDKY currently is the only choice for local news at 10.


"As far as welcoming the competition, I don't really consider it competition because we're so strong," Brickey said.


Anchoring the 10 p.m. newscast will be WTVQ's evening female anchor Megan Skaggs, while male anchor Tom Kenny is off air "polishing up the 11 o'clock scripts and show," Aldridge said.


Skaggs is a good fit, Aldridge said, because "MyNetworkTV is both younger-skewing and also more male-oriented."


WTVQ will simulcast its local morning news on the channel from 5 to 7 a.m. and re-air its noon and 6 p.m. newscasts a half-hour later. And it will show its 11 p.m. news on the channel at midnight.


Aldridge said he's not concerned those will dilute the main broadcasts' ratings, because he's targeting people who are watching other shows during the main times.


MyNetworkTV and syndicated programming will fill out the rest of the schedule.

PAUL HARVEY PASSES AWAY AT 90

He was a survivor of a long-gone era when a “news and comment” personality was appointment listening for millions of Americans as he reached 24 million americans over the airwaves everyday. ABC Radio Networks President Jim Robinson says he was “one of the most gifted and beloved broadcasters in our nation’s history” – and that’s no exaggeration. Paul began hosting his daily shows for ABC Radio in 1951 and came back even after the death of his wife, producer and confidant Lynne “Angel” Harvey last May. He started his broadcasting career in his native Tulsa at KVOO in 1933, while he was still in high school. He met his future wife at KXOK, St. Louis, moved to Chicago where he began doing 15-minute commentary shows on WENR – and then persuaded the ABC network to let him “go national.” He launched “Rest of the Story” in 1976 and also did a syndicated TV show for a while. But radio was his true home and he did it right up until the end. Paul Harvey Aurandt died Saturday (February 28) at a hospital in Phoenix.
And as Paul Harvey would say "Good Day"

[Tyler Wolfe]

Successors of Paul Harvey Have Been Named

ABC Radio Networks have named the successors of Paul Harvey.
Gill Gross will be the successor of News & Comment and Doug Lemirick is the successor for The Rest of The Story. The Announcement was made March 4th. According to Wikipedia.org Paul Harvey.Jr was removed from News and Comment without explanation.

Harvey died on February 28, 2009, at the age of 90 after being taken to a hospital in Phoenix, Arizona. He died while surrounded by family and friends. His son, Paul Harvey Jr., said "millions have lost a friend" in response to his father's death. The cause was not immediately known.

Former President George W. Bush issued a statement on Harvey's death: "Laura and I are saddened by the death of Paul Harvey. Paul was a friendly and familiar voice in the lives of millions of Americans. His commentary entertained, enlightened, and informed. Laura and I are pleased to have known this fine man, and our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

A week of tribute broadcasts replaced the normal News and Comment and Rest of the Story broadcasts. For example, on March 3, instead of The Rest of the Story, Harvey's report of November 22, 1963 aired.

News & Comment and The Rest of the Story will continue to air on A.M 1290 WKLB.

8:30 A.M-News & Comment(The 5 Minute Edition)
12:30 P.M-News & Comment(The 15 Minute Edition)
