Localism will save traditional broadcasting
Fort Worth's KTVT Channel 11 has been branded as CBS11 and CBS-DFW for nearly 30 years since Rupert Murdoch bought KDFW Channel 4, and dropped CBS to make it a Fox station. Opryland owner Gaylord sold KTVT outright to CBS Corporation in 1999 for half a BILLION dollars.
Since local news and local identification is how local broadcasters can compete with streaming services, CBS11/CBS-DFW has rebranded as CBS Texas. Which sounds like a statewide broadcast.
And dropped the 6 p.m. local news, replacing it with "Jeopardy!"
