I'm just copying my posting on this from AVS Forum since I think it's worth repeating here:
The Chicago Tribune reports that Weigel Broadcasting is taking Me-TV national:

As I've mentioned on this thread before, the WCIU cluster of stations in Chicago never fails to impress me (and capture most of my viewing) when I'm visiting the Windy City. MeTV and MeToo are pure viewing enjoyment.
I hope that someone picks this up in the Dallas-Ft. Worth market. Of course my dream would be that Weigel just swoops down and buys a full-power station here. KFWD is really a shoestring operation (with no plans to build the 55 kW facility to give them a denser signal).
On the other hand, KTAQ might be a viable candidate for a sale. So, please Mr. Weigel, come forth from Illinois and buy a station hereabouts!
As much as I tend to prefer local ownership, this is one case where the "Chicago Way" would be welcomed.
