@videonut33 It wasn't a decision of theirs. Nobody would or could buy them but Sunbeam. Tribune sold CW56 to them. I certainly hope that 7 and NBC part ways. Although 4 and NBC will most likely never team up again.

There may not be a 7-NBC in Boston come September...

Supposedly Ed Ansin & Company wanted 56 to keep the NBC affiliation from being taken away from them. NBC wanted an O&O for years with what he and the company have done in terms of pre-emptions and branding.

its weird that they used this for a month then changed it. haha.

I hope that Sunbeam Television buys a station here in Connecticut. NBC 30 is for Sale

Sunbeam Television(who owns WSVN)also owns WHDH and they also own CW56. So that's probably why they did this.

That open looks like WSVN.

Why would TheCW56 do this?!

I may be from Oklahoma City, but I can surely say that Boston television as a whole suffered on December 19th at 10pm...

Everything's different now except for the anchors, time slot and station.
