I did not know that KTLA channel 5 is part of Tribune Broadcasting. : )
It was till very recently. Nexstar owns it now.
@@gidzmobug2323 Ok. What’s Nexstar?
@@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624 Nexstar is a media company. They bought all of the stations that Tribune owned (including KTLA).
@@gidzmobug2323 OK, thanks for telling me what Nexstar is. : )
KTLA was a cool indepedent station until The WB and The CW both destroyed it.
How did they ruin it for you?
The News is great here.
well Tribune got wrecked by the 2008 financial crisis, so...
It's mostly news during the weekday. Two hours for CW.
