WPLG to Air LATV

LATV is dubbed a Latin pop culture channel’ and WPLG is making space for it on their digital signal. The channel which targets 12-34 year olds will have a mix of English and Spanish language programing.

WPLG hopes they’ll be able to produce content for LATV when their new studios on Pembroke Park are done sometime in 2008 or 2009 but for now Channel 10 will only sell local ads and help market LATV.

New WHDH Graphics Debut

WSVN’s sister station in Boston, WHDH, just pumped out the long awaited graphics package. It has lots of 3D elements and I noticed the part in the open when the logo appears that it looks so close to a part of one of the current WSVN promos.

I suspect WSVN’s graphics will be the same or similar

Update 1/18: here’s some video from WHDH’s web site

Kelly Craig to ‘South Florida Today’

Kelly Craig is joining Bob Mayer and Trina Robinson as co-host of “South Florida Today”.

Please join me in congratulating Kelly Craig! Kelly will co-anchor our wildly successful and truly popular, “South Florida Today” show at ten o’clock. Kelly’s unique style, distinctive wit and classic charm will be a welcome addition to our 10am show – joining our current standouts, Bob Mayer and Trina Robinson.

Yes, we all love waking up to Kelly on the weekend morning anchor desk but now you will be able to find her on-air and on-line five days a week. As we transition, we will use a variety of people on the weekend morning news desk.

We are also searching for a weekend morning meteorologist, Trina will help us cover weekend weather until a permanent person is named.

CBS4.com Live Channels

Not sure if this is permanent or not but they have 2 channels on the site right now streaming live coverage of breaking news events.

I guess with two breaking newses they couldn’t bump Oprah so they went online :D .

I kid. Good idea nonetheless, should be applied to the newscasts too. And CBS should make that player Firefox compatible, if they know how
