Gray Media’s WCTV in Tallahassee is the market’s No. 1 station. But, is WCTV getting ready to make a big change? This has been the station’s logo. Notice the CBS Eye is prominently displayed. And that local is still on the station’s website. But, if you look at the on-air product, you can see the eye has vanished.

I’m old enough to remember Presidents, both Republican and Democrat speaking with respect and decorum.

With local TV on life support, at least one local station might be working on their plan B. Detroit’s NBC affiliate, WDIV-Local 4, is opening a coffee shop in downtown Plymouth this September. The venue, called “Fourgrounds,” will also serve as a satellite studio and community event space. The station is partnering with the Great Lakes Coffee Roasting Company, which will supply and operate the coffee service within the space.
