Big behind-the-scenes news at the Sinclair local stations: the broadcaster is reorganising many of its local newsrooms in smaller markets. The first stations affected are WGXA in Macon (ABC/Fox), WACH in Columbia (Fox) and their duopoly in Flint (WEYI/WSMH). This will lead to some of the newscasts in non-key slots being replaced by simulcasts of The National Desk. In the case of WEYI, the morning news, 5pm and weekend evening broadcasts are being reportedly culled.

Staying with Sinclair, seems like there's more casualties from the local news cut: WNWO Toledo (NBC) and KTVL Medford (CBS, CW Plus).

[Edit] Confirmed by WNWO.

NBC 24 is changing the way we produce news in Toledo to ensure our long-term success.

Beginning May 15, The National Desk, which provides real-time national and regional news from Sinclair's television stations across the U.S., will air during our regularly scheduled news time periods.
