Apparently they haven't taken the CW Arizona promos out of rotation on 15.2 yet. They just played a commercial for "Courtside Saturday" basketball (ACC?) Saturday at 10 AM on "CW Arizona."

CW Could be on the Move in Phoenix as Soon as Next Week
- Thread starter powergate92
- Start date
Disney doesn't buy stations. And Nexstar would have to sell a lot of them to get WPIX, a VHF serving 6% of the country, under its own name.
There are indications that Nexstar might end up starting night news for WPHL this year. Unlike with KIAH, though, doing that gets them political ad avails in a swing state.
By the way, the AZTV logo is still on 7.5. Wonder how much longer it remains there or if 7.5 remains in the long term.
Consider that Iger is considering selling ABC last year until Nexstar and Byron Allen swooped up even if Disney insited theyre not for sale. Does Disney even care about ABC News than ESPN or the entertainment assets?
So it is the end of a locally owned independent television station, replaced by a company who couldn't run the UHF station it originally had in town several years ago.
They're still locally owned, but Nexstar is operating KAZT under a multi-year time brokerage agreement.
They're back to 480i as of this morning.
Also, the AZTV website list the annual World Day of the Sick mass as being broadcast on AZTV 7.5 on Saturday, 2/10 at 10:30 AM with the AZTV 7.5 logo. My guess is they are probably keeping the AZTV branding on 7.5.
The Catholic Mass - CW7 Arizona
WATCH SUNDAY MORNINGS AT 9:00 A.M. The Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix is committed to helping the faithful encounter the living Christ through conversion, communion and solidarity. Led by the Most Rev. John P. Dolan, more than 1.1 million Catholics make this diverse, vibrant, and faith-filled...

Nexstar sacrificed KASW, among other properties, in order to purchase the Tribune group, which was before they had an interest in (The) CW.
Speaking of KASW, anyone know if Cox reversed the channel move and placed them back on Channel 6, while bumping KNXV 15.2 back to 95? It would be a boneheaded decision if they didn't do so, but this is Cox we're talking about.
As of right now, Cox still has Antenna TV on 6 and KASW on 95.
Just checked 7.5 at the top of the 9 PM hour and they aired a promo for Big Bang Theory at 6 PM on CW7 follow by a promo/top of the hour ID for Family Feud at 7 PM - 9 PM on AZTV7. So I guess they forgot or haven't gotten to updating the top of the hour ID/promos on 7.5.
Typical with local Scripps management as of late. They haven't been on the ball since before they secured the Coyotes contract.
Iger took ABC off the market entirely several months ago. It's not happening. Period.
Unrealistic bruh. He should resign now.
That's not how things work.
As if ppl needed to be reminded they're owned by Nexstar, Arizona Daily Mix had a reporter from KAZT's new sister station in Las Vegas (KLAS CBS), Sasha Loftis, donning the mic flag for their show, an annual thing Nexstar stations do around the Super Bowl.

Next, AZ Daily Mix will have a "local" news and weather update from KLAS. Then, Nexstar will start producing a 9pm newscast produced by KLAS of course, airing on KAZT.
Looks like the move of Nexstar networks to KAZT'S Subchannels will begin on April 1st as TitanTV shows 7.5 switching over to Rewind TV.
