Ok so it has been about 4 months now that Global has been running the show so let's recap what they've done to date.
Obviously there was a complete overhaul of management including General Mangager, News Director, Promotions/Marketing Director, many misc. senior employees...
TALENT OUT - April O'Dell, Walter Cryan, Mark Searles
TALENT IN - Paul Mueller (returned), Allison Alexander, Steve Cascione (returned), Buddy Cianci
They returned to a 5am start to the morning news and added a 4pm newscast (the only one in the market)
New graphics package (could be better, but I heard it was again done in house) with a ticker (the death of the shoulder graphic is great!!! those things always look stupid.)
New news and weather set (could be better)
Restructuring of the news team
Now we wait for ratings to improve. and some of us new music and announcer...
I'm sure I missed a few things...
