I live in the Ark La Tex and agree Nexstar really is doing all it can to get by at KTAL. Nexstar said when it bought KTAL and fired all the on air folks/reporters it was looking for a fresh start. Yea, a fresh start doing the same ol thing, hiring folks not deserving to go on air. The only plus on their side was hiring Todd Warren as Chief Met. Otherwise it's the SOS. I remember before Todd arrived officially, Nexstar brought in one of the retired National Weather Service Mets to do the weather and he was having a very very difficult time reading the prompter. YES a telepromter to do the weather.
The Anchor Rewind Weekends were good when they brought the old timers that are out of the biz and worked at the other shreveport stations.
And have you noticed how they've decreased their coverage of Southwest arkansas. KTBS and KSLA have picked up the slack in that category.
And do they still have a t-town bureau? I know they have offices in the mall BUT never do any newscasts from there.

I'm curious about the state of the current talent at KTAL. I was in Shreveport recently and watched another station (I work for a CBS affil somewhere else) but what is the current 'TAL talent like?
