I dont undertsand why CLTV is gone.

And even more, did the Tribune REALLY get bought out by another company?

I thought Tribune was a giant, who the hell would be able to buy them?

And even if so, what went in to the decision to destroy CLTV? Why they gotta just look at it and destroy it on first sight?

WHy not just let it be for a while so as not appear to the CHicago public is intrusive, or imperialistic or somethin'?

Goddamn. CLTV is the perfect news to watch on holidays like today (calm after the storm type of feeling) and instead I had to go to WGN.

And yes, I know theres a RIP thread about this but that was just to report the shutdown. Here, I want actual DISCUSSION on why, including about the Tribune.

another thing that pisses me off.

I always counted on CLTV replaying the WGN news from about 10:30 to midnight, if I missed the 9 o clock news.

Now thats gone. Where am I gonna get my news now?

One can sing this worthless whistler thread* title to "Where Have All The Flowers Gone", if they were inclined so to do.

* - is there any other kind?

Sinclair's purchase was rejected by the FCC. Sinclair would have tied Marquee to WGN, probably by killing CLTV.

Nextstar is the company that then bought WGN.

This is where I miss CLTV.

Coulda had nonstop coverage on this BS. Instead, I gotta wait for the 5pm or 6pm news.

CLTV woulda been nice at this time. Nice, low-key coverage without being too sensationalistic.

Woulda kept you comforted.

FUCK WHOEVER BOUGHT OUT THE TRIBUNE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE U.S. ECONOMY IS ESSENTIALLY A FREE MARKET ECONOMY – AN ECONOMIC MARKET THAT IS RUN BY SUPPLY AND DEMAND – WITH SOME GOVERNMENT REGULATION. IN A TRULY FREE MARKET, BUYERS AND SELLERS CONDUCT THEIR BUSINESS WITHOUT ANY GOVERNMENT REGULATION, BUT THERE IS A CONTINUING DEBATE AMONG POLITICIANS AND ECONOMISTS ABOUT HOW MUCH GOVERNMENT REGULATION IS NECESSARY FOR THE U.S. ECONOMY!

THOSE WHO WANT LESS REGULATION ARGUE THAT IF YOU REMOVE GOVERNMENT RESTRICTIONS, THE FREE MARKET WILL FORCE BUSINESSES TO PROTECT CONSUMERS, PROVIDE SUPERIOR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, AND CREATE AFFORDABLE PRICES FOR EVERYONE! THEY BELIEVE THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS INEFFICIENT AND CREATES NOTHING BUT A BIG BUREAUCRACY THAT INCREASES THE COST OF DOING BUSINESS FOR EVERYONE!

THOSE WHO ARGUE THAT GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS ARE NECESSARY TO PROTECT CONSUMERS, THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC CLAIM THAT CORPORATIONS ARE NOT LOOKING OUT FOR THE PUBLIC'S INTEREST AND THAT IT IS PRECISELY FOR THIS REASON THAT REGULATIONS ARE REQUIRED!

it's days like this I miss CLTV.

Every half hour they give quick rundown of the news.

I could tune in whenever I want and see Judy Wang in a nice quiet peaceful newsroom. Telling us about New year shit, telling us about new laws, telling us what happened on NYE.

I also missed this on Christmas weekend and shit.

FUCK WHOEVER THAT COMPANY IS IN DALLAS FOR TRASHING CLTV. YOU DONT COME IN HERE TO ANOTHER CITY AND MAKE UR OWN RULES.

GET OUT!!!
