Casey Anthony trial: WKMG’s parent favors WFTV

Roger Simmons, June 3, 2011

Interesting side note from the Casey Anthony trial…

Orlando’s CBS affiliate, WKMG-Local 6, is owned by Post-Newsweek Stations, which is part of The Washington Post Co.

So, you would think that The Washington Post would be teaming up with its corporate sibling for coverage of the high-profile trial, right? Nope.

On WashingtonPost.com’s site, it touts that its live stream video of the trial comes “courtesy of local TV station WFTV9.com”

Ouch, Local 6!

We’re in the dog days of summer. The Casey Anthony case has cooled down, the tropics are relatively quiet, and other than the python-killing mania sweeping the state, there’s not much going on. That’s why the folks in the Orlando Sentinel’s marketing department decided to shake up the summer a bit. They’ve…
