WWOR-TV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia WWOR is owned by Fox Television Stations, a division of the News Corporation, but goes by its legal name WWOR-TV, Incorporated. After News Corporation purchased the station in 2001, there were rumors and expectations that WWOR would leave Secaucus and move back to Manhattan, to be consolidated with WNYW at the Fox Television Center on East 67th Street in Yorkville. NPS discontinued WWOR in 1999, in favor of Pax. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/WWOR-TV   (3231 words)

TV Ark - UPN 9 New York WWOR became "UPN 9" in 1995 when the UPN network launched, introducing a new logo that has a bit of a nod to the RKO "dotted nine". WWOR remains in Secaucus but is basically managed by WNYW, which is in New York. Rolland Smith, formerly of WCBS, came to WWOR in 1987 as the station revamped its news operation. www.tv-ark.org.uk /international/us_upn_wor.html   (1770 words)

WPIX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ironically, beginning in 2005, over-the-air Yankees broadcasts were aired by WWOR, which was as synonymous with the Mets as WPIX was with the Yankees. The station replaced them with the New York Mets, which up until that point had spent their entire televised history with WOR/WWOR. WPIX personality Jack McCarthy anchored the station's longtime coverage of the St. Patrick's Day Parade (now aired by WNBC-TV), and the station later added the Columbus Day Parade and National Puerto Rican Day Parade to its stable. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/WPIX-TV   (2071 words)

NewsLab Articles: Notes from 9/11 WWOR staff in New Jersey were essentially stranded--until a staffer who grew up in a Florida fishing village suggested hiring a boat to get across the Hudson River. WWOR was able to use the competing station's working microwave link and other facilities to produce his own coverage. WWOR produces just an hour of news a day at 10 p.m., so the bulk of the staff works a late shift. www.newslab.org /articles/911notes.htm   (898 words)

News Release Please advise me as to why you believe that WWOR is not in violation of its federal licensing agreement when taking into account your recent decision to move the station's TV operations out of Secaucus and into New York City. Since WWOR will no longer be primarily based in New Jersey, I am troubled that the station's move may be in violation of its federal licensing agreement, which requires the station to serve the public interest in its licensed area. Since WWOR will no longer be based in New Jersey, I am troubled that the station's move may be in violation of its federal licensing agreement, which requires the station to serve the public interest in its licensed area. rothman.house.gov /news_releases/rel_022604a.htm   (1026 words)

News Release Rothman had argued that WWOR's relocation of its headquarters to New York would have violated the very condition upon which the license was given and meant that the station was no longer living up to its commitment to the community. The license was ultimately reinstated to WWOR, but the granting of the license was contingent on the station's agreement to relocate to New Jersey and provide coverage of local, New Jersey news. The FCC revoked WWOR's license in the early 1980s after an investigation determined that the station's parent company, General Tire and Rubber Co., had engaged in corporate misconduct. rothman.house.gov /news_releases/rel_100804.htm   (414 words)

A U. S. Television Chronology, 1875-1970 First live network transmission of TV pictures from inside a manned U.S. space capsule in orbit: Apollo 7 There were six such broadcasts during their eleven-day mission. First TV pictures transmitted from a manned U.S. space capsule, astronaut Gordon Cooper's "Faith 7." Because the picture quality is poor, only NBC carries the transmission, and on tape-delay, not live. This was not actually the first trans-Atlantic TV, as the BBC and German TV were received in the 1930s in Long Island and perhaps elsewhere in the U.

da012117.txt WTNH asserts that this study establishes that, for two consecutive years, WABC- TV and WWOR-TV have not met the applicable viewing levels required for a distant station to be considered significantly viewed in the community of New Haven. For WWOR- TV for both years, the share of total weekly viewing hours falls below the required minimum for significantly viewed status while the net weekly circulation shares exceed the required minimum. WTNH points out that this study was prepared by Nielsen Media Research from the November 1997/February 1998 and November 1998/February 1999 audience sweeps periods using non-cable household diaries for the zip codes included in New Haven that have been gathered for their routine audience sweep measurements. www.fcc.gov /ftp/Bureaus/Cable/Orders/2001/da012117.txt   (1323 words)

fcc96280.txt As evidence, NHMC maintains that WWOR-TV representatives failed to attend an October 1993 hearing on "New York/New Jersey Area TV Station Employment of Hispanic-Americans" sponsored by the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. In response, the licensee states that 41% of its job hires from February 1993 until February 1994 were minorities and that minorities represent 28.5% of the WWOR-TV work force. It concludes that WWOR, Inc. is not committed to increasing Hispanic employment levels at the station and argues that the licensee willfully ignored its "underemployment" of Hispanics until license renewal time. www.fcc.gov /ftp/Bureaus/Mass_Media/Orders/1996/fcc96280.txt   (2123 words)

Mario Cantone: Steampipe Alley: 1980s NYC kid shows The show was originally taped at The WWOR TV Studios in Seacacus, N. The show moved to the Universal Studios in California before 'Steampipe Alley' returned to WWOR-TV in New Jersey. The heads of the Fox TV Network decided to move the show to a weekday afternoon format and simply have The Flexatoon Puppets introduce cartoons. The wife of the new owner of the station was reportedly appalled by Mario's comedy skits and the fact that 'Steampipe Alley' was not educational enough (to this woman's taste). www.tvparty.com /lostny280s.html   (1633 words)

NorthEast Radio Watch by Scott Fybush The TV broadcasters who used the Trade Center believed they were prepared for just about any eventuality: they all had multiple transmitters and copious sources of backup power at the north tower. By day's end, the TV stations were already making plans to bring a new site on line to restore at least a semblance of on-air service. Meanwhile, Empire was also being carefully examined by several of the TV stations that had yet to return to the air, even at low power. www.fybush.com /wtc-recovery.html   (5571 words)

TVBR's Morning E-Paper With widespread power failures a foregone conclusion, the TV partners have been promoting the frequencies of their radio partners so viewers who become listeners will know where to tune on their radio when they no longer have access to video. TV stocks were mixed, with slightly more gainers than losers. TV stocks haven't done quite that badly, but are down double digits. www.rbr.com /tvepaper/issue188-04-newscorp.html   (4227 words)

Scrape Magazine: Homage to Richard Bey In any case, WWOR created TV programs that pushed the envelope of good taste and FCC regulations. Richard Bey was hammered by the critics and media elite for lowering the standard of Trash TV.

DUOPOLY 101 The duopoly, created when Fox parent News Corporation bought WWOR, is less than a year into the merging of the news operations. As a way not to fall into the similarity trap, WNYW and WWOR have two separate sweeps segment production teams that do not interact.

Writers Guild of America, East: Table Talk In addition, it was made clear that WWOR would have to negotiate a wage increase or editing fee commensurate with the new job responsibility and provide adequate training on the new equipment before the Guild could accept these new duties. Your Committee rejected WWOR's pocketbook demands -- stating repeatedly that the Company has given no reason to concede to such significant economic give-backs especially given the current success of the Company. In response to the Company's proposals on unlimited use of temps and upgrades, your Committee referred the Company to the Guild's proposals on temps -- that plausible staff shifts be filled with staff writers -- as a far more reasonable solution to the "use of temps" problem. www.wgaeast.org /table-talk/941647584   (938 words)
