Well I think it is because people down here prefer style over substance for their news. Look at WSVN 7, they haven't changed much at all style-wise since 1989.
and yet, WSVN remains strong. They have facelifted themselves since 1989. Thats what WCIX did here in 1995 after the switch. It was needed. And apparently it worked because they have done better than WTVJ ever since. I will say that WFOR needs a facelift now. They have been the same since like 2001. I'm sure it will come with HD soon.
Midlothian High school in Midlothian, Virginia. Shes actually a substitute for 6 weeks since my original teacher broke her leg. So she should be leaving in a couple of weeks.
Stan Miller is now the main anchor of KFMB in San Diego, which is also the same market Susan Lichtman now works, & she was also anchor at a CBS station there. Also what happened to Barbara Sloan?
I love the lady's voiceover at the beginning of the clip.

I liked WCIX's look/interface better than WFOR's. At least WTVJ stayed basically the same when the switch happened.

Well WTVJ staying the same didnt do well for their ratings did it? WCIX needed to update they hadnt changed much since 1986

There was nothing wrong with their logo or their reporting or their content! I miss the 6 but the shifting sands of Florida leave no stone unturned!

Was this a CBS O&O station at the time?

Yes. CBS bought the station in 1988.

Hmm, didn't know they ever used the Enforcer theme.

It's a variation of the Enforcer theme but it's not Gari's Enforcer.
