TIME TO SAY GOODBYE… I’m 
leaving WDRB-TV FOX 41 in early 2010, after more than 4 years as a news
reporter and anchor here. Early on, I fell in love with Louisville and
the surrounding towns throughout Ke…ntucky and Southern Indiana, where
I’ve traveled to cover news and on my own time for pleasure. It’s a
beautiful and convenient place to live. I love our house and our
exquisite neighborhood.

Score Round One for Jerry Springer. That’s my take on the “Jerry & Bill Show,” the pilot for a weekly debate show starring Springer and 700 WLW-AM’s Bill Cunningham that aired Sunday night on WXIX-TV (Ch 19).I’m still stunned from hearing conservative Cunningham declare that there “aren’t any dirt poor” people in the the United States. And that all the poor people in this country are overweight.

In a recent presentation at WOSU in Columbus, Ohio, John Proffitt, who blogs about public media, painted a gloomy picture. In slide after slide, the stats mounted. New gadgets, new social media habits, new channels for distribution and consumption all added up to one conclusion: public TV stations are rapidly losing both value and relevance.http://www.pbs.org/mediashift/2010/01/

Fierce negotiations between Time Warner Cable and Fox owner News Corp., along with the recent purchase of NBC Universal by Comcast Corp., are underscoring changes in television. And the notion of free, over-the-air broadcasting might be unraveling.That could mean higher cable- or satellite-TV bills.Although the story is current, its roots go back more than 60 years, when TV stations began airing

Not only did what we watch on TV change in the past decade, but there was a revolution in how we watched, too.And given all the changes, it will be fun to see what our video habits will be like 10 years from now.The Big (and Small) Picture: In the past decade, we’ve bought flat plasma TV screens bigger than a picture window, and smaller than the face of a wristwatch.

When you run a station in a market full of Buckeyes, it helps to be one yourself. While WBNS Columbus has long been a ratings giant in the No. 34 DMA (see Market Eye: Bucking the Trend), President/General Manager Tom Griesdorn—Ohio State Class of 1972—extended the gap between the CBS affiliate and its competition in 2009. WBNS launched a weather channel on its digital tier over the summer,
