An update on the WB-UPN-CW situation in O-Town:

Heard from a WRDQ insider that the now-independent station plans to actively pursue affiliation with the new CW Network. So, it’s not a slam dunk that CW programming will end up on WKCF-WB 18. I would think that with its Orlando duopoly with WFTV-Channel 9 and its strong Cox ownership, Channel 27 could have an edge over Emmis-owned WKCF in landing the new network. Plus, isn’t WKCF still up for sale?

And, as predicted, Fox-owned WRBW dropped the UPN logo out of its on-air graphics on Friday (see above). The former "UPN 65" now refers to itself as "WRBW 65." This follows the lead of other Fox-owned UPN affiliates that are now distancing themselves from the network that is leaving them high and dry. Plus, Broadcasting and Cable reported that Fox-owned UPN stations are scrapping February sweeps radio buys that had been intended to promote UPN programming. The stations also are not promoting network shows during their programming.
