Actually i met him here in South FL at the TV archive i work at, i think he is brilliant! WSVN 7 is awesome, you all should be thankful he brought his wonderful ideas to his hometown of Boston.
he alrighty brought it here in the form of WHDH...the pickup of WLVI was a defense move so NBC wouldn't buy them and take the affiliation away from 'HDH.
Great people at WLVI...glad I am starting to see some of them come back, but not enough.

When you read this, you'll probably say "Keep Dreamin'", but I would love nothing more than to see NBC buy WBZ from CBS, and make WBZ in Boston an NBC O&O. Not only that, but use the NBC-4 logo with WBZ.
There might have been a chance of something along those lines, had WHDH stuck to its decision not to carry Jay Leno's 10 PM show in the fall...had they not come around, NBC was prepared to pull their affiliation, which likely would've relegated the network to WSBK (the only possible station, being a full-fledged indie w/a solid history).
Hooray, no more CW56 news at 10:00! Happy days!!!!!

BTW, just so you know. I still hate Ed Ansin for making WLVI worse. I miss the old ch. 56 and hate the WHDH-run ch. 56. ED ANSIN STINKS!

Sorry grahambrunk. Ed Ansin DOESN'T KNOW Boston tv history OR its viewers. I won't even watch any of the channels because it's NOT Boston tv!!!!

Me too electrogeek77. This cw56 just ISN'T Boston tv. There's no such thing as local Boston tv anymore.
