RE: International News Presentation: Past and Present - hghdfntn - 02-11-2023

Hungary’s TV2 updated the set and graphics of its flagship news program, Tények (Facts). The new design debuted tonight.

The CP24 5:30 newscast also might continue on CP24 only while CFTO/CTV Toronto airs the new 5:30 show. CP24 has their own 11 PM newscast when CTV National News at 11 is on.

There's 2 stations that will be impacted more than the others:

- CTV Atlantic: will they be getting a 5:30 PM Atlantic time edition, or simulcast with the CTV stations in the eastern time zone and air it at 6:30 PM Atlantic time? This will affect either their highly popular 5 PM news magazine, or their equally popular 6 PM news cast.

- NTV Newfoundland: That station carries CTV News programming mixed in with Global's news and entertainment programming. Global National airs at 7 PM NT/6:30 PM AT/5:30 PM ET. Is NTV going to carry the new CTV 5:30 show? If so, does Global National move to 7:30, or be off of NTV's schedule completely? If there's a 5:30 PM AT edition created, does that mean NTV carries it at 6 PM in place of their highly popular Evening News Hour?

I know NTV is a legacy station for Newfoundland. But its so weird they dont have a split schedule for both networks. Using NTV+ as the GLOBAL feed . NTV GLobal or something. Or GLOBAL and CTV opening their own stations..even if they dont do news to begin with, as its very expensive. NTV has a odd look for 2023. They need a simplified logo. It would be fine without the stars and globe and the gold shine. Or even if they keep the stars the globe and the gold shine needs to go. And the news graphics are mess. Using the CTV lower third. And the set needs some serious help.

Their website is outdated too (along with most non-metropolitan stations). There's no money left in the entire Canadian media industry. I can't see how NTV can get new sets or new logos. The CRTC local station licences have local programming quotas (the private stations meet them with "local" news), which is why Global and CTV won't start a new station there.

As mentioned earlier, the new CTV National News edition is a response to recently massive job cuts (and make additional cuts?*). This is on top of the closure of radio stations and CTV recently reducing Saskatoon's newscasts to only noon and 6 pm on weekdays, which is slightly above the minimum required by their licence in the city, with all others being province wide from Regina.
*My guess is they currently need two different teams to produce the 5pm and 6 pm hour-long newscasts. If there's a break at 5:30 pm, then only one team is needed?

I did mean a cut meaning in time length , instead of 90 minutes it's 60 minutes of local news in the evening slot, it probably can be a cost savings by removing 30 minutes. Minus Toronto ,where Live at 5:30pm on CP24 would still run probably on just CP24.   I could see NTV not airing the extra CTV national news, and just keeping on with Global National and the late Edition of CTV National News.

Yesterday was also a sad day for Quebec's TVA as they announced massive layoffs of over 500 people, accounting for one-third of their total workforce. Local newscasts in their smaller regional areas (including Sherbrooke) will cease to be anchored locally and will be anchored from Quebec City by a single anchor. The Montreal, Quebec City and regional affiliates (e.g. RNC Media-owned stations in Gatineau-Ottawa) are not affected by these changes.

TVA will also cease production of entertainment programming and instead outsource them to third parties. The only shows produced by TVA moving forward will be news, their morning show Salut Bonjour and select sports programming on TVA Sports.

TVA is also expected to sell its longtime Montreal headquarters and move to Quebecor's head office in Montreal.

The layoffs are expected to commence within 16 weeks as of today.

This was how various TVA Nouvelles bulletins opened on that sombre day. The Sherbrooke station is sadly going to be hit the hardest by these changes.

RE: International News Presentation: Past and Present - Independent - 05-11-2023

The CEO of TVA's parent company is attributing the cuts to the public broadcaster competing with the private sector for the shrinking pool of advertising money available. IIRC some have suggested the BBC in the UK should start copying the model in Canada, but look at what it's doing to the private sector.

Quote:Quebecor CEO Pierre Karl Péladeau, who is also the interim president of Groupe TVA, places most of the blame for this on the federal government and the CRTC, who ignored his repeated calls to “ease burdensome and costly administrative and regulatory requirements,” stop Radio-Canada from accepting advertising, and level the playing field with foreign giants like Netflix.

Quote:TV advertising represents about $200 million a year in revenue for TVA, and it’s dropping fast. Its latest quarterly report, announced at the same time, has it losing $13 million in the broadcasting sector in the past nine months.

The launch of the new studio has been delayed until the start of next year due to continued delays on building the new newsroom (and in the completion of ProSiebenSat.1's new centralised campus in Unterföhring/Munich); however, German blog DWDL.de has an exclusive preview of the new studio set, which is nearly complete; it will be fully hard scenic, with a wide array of video walls and space for AR, plus a smaller space for social media and digital production, and a dedicated gallery. Rehearsals and dry runs are to be made already, but the lack of an in-studio air conditioning system and the await for approval by P7S1 management has delayed it too.

Also given that a few days ago it marked the 55th anniversary of the 1968 Election here is a playlist with coverage of that too
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmEH-9v7NBQvGv6lrOd9qLvKk-iTuzNPk 
And finally here is hours of coverage of the 2008 Election, 15 years after America elected it's first ever black President

You still need a separate producer for a 5 PM newscast, regardless if it’s 30 minutes or 1 hour long. Also, the same control room staff (or shift) normally do both the 5 & 6 newscasts. Apart from maybe losing a news writer in the afternoons, I don’t see how sandwiching a new national newscast at 5:30 would reduce staff (CTV has already confirmed there’s no job losses at the local newsrooms because of this). In fact, it’s kind of baffling that CTV is doing this, considering they were supposedly in a cost-cutting mode now.

Regarding NTV, the EPGs are showing that they are NOT showing the new 5:30 CTV News (which would air at 6 PM NT). They are sticking with their 90 minute local news package, and Global National at 7 PM.

And in the age of multiplexing on DTV, it was kind of a surprised that NTV didn’t put CTV on CJON-DT 6.2 (either their own schedule or simulcasting CTV Atlantic with local commercials) and have 6.1 just have NTV local and Global programming.
