Rip Woai-tv

But didn't the SA NBC affiliate used to be KMOL at one point?

And, OMG, another Victorian?

According to wikipedia.com:
The TV station was sold off to United Television (at the time a subsidiary of 20th Century Fox) in 1975, changing its call letters to KMOL-TV.

You can buy and sell call letters, so yeah you can own them.

The student radio station at MIT used to be called WTBS back in the 70s/early 80s.

Some guy in Atlanta decided he wanted those letters, so he bought them from the station for something like $25K, which they used to upgrade their equipment.

I'm not talking about days when the weather may call for commercial free weather broadcasts. I'm talking about everything newscasts, WOAI is all about talking about the weather. It can be sunny, cloudless, windless for 7 days but WOAI will spend 8-10 minutes each half hour broadcast talking about it. Why it'll be like that and show you with every different map they have.

That's why they're 3rd. That and other reasons, but mostly that.

When they're not pimping the weather like mad, they're talking about diseases and how it's related to some "cause" that they'll have going. Granted, I'm not a mean person and I'm all for charity but give it a rest. I mean do we really care that Tous (or whatever the that place is) supplied Delaine Mathieu's jewlery? No, we don't.

I think Jennifer "I buy my clothes at Blair" Broome does an excellent job, but they just need to cut back some of it. She's not auditioning for "The Weather Channel". But hey, least they're not putting Don Harris or David Chancellor on more. Those two clowns think their Walter Winc and Chris Berman with their "act". Give it up guys...FOX Sports and ESPN wouldn't want you.

Whoa...Beamer lurks here?

Dude, your wife is the hottest woman in the city of San Antonio.

Not only does he lurk here but he has posted a few times. He won't even read or answer my e mails due to the fact I talked smack whith him in the Spurs forum one night. I sent him an Email telling him that the Don Harris vs David Chancellor catch the tennis balls contest was not fair since the machine was tossing the balls at a faster rate when Don was trying to catch them and it lost air pressure when David tired to catch them. David caught like 9 out of 10 Don caught like 2 out of 10.

But as soon as he saw my Hotmail account he deleted the email. Same thing with the Charlie Parker morning show they would ask for certain Emails and PMs and they would skip over mine. You could tell they had to read mine to decide who it came from.

Even David made a comment should we read this one and Charlie said "NO!"

I had made a few Brokeback mountain photo shops of them two after David had admitted to seeing the movie.

Charlie did not find any humor in them. So with that said how can you take anything that station says as the truth? After all wasn't LJ Kori Peter Burns and Stacie huge Nate Lundy fans when he had the program director position and now he's just some guy they knew.

LJ and Kori were never Nate Lundy fans.

Peter Burns and Stacie are still Nate Lundy friends/fans.

Beamer just said on the 6 pm edition (in a way that would make me think it came about because of this thread) that WOAI-TV will remain WOAI-TV after the sell is complete in the 4th quarter of this year.

Yeah I understand TV is keeping the WOAI call letters.
