Everything old is new again:
From Broadcasting&Cable:
The CBS-owned TV and radio stations in Philadelphia have joined forces to launch 39 "digital newsstands"-HD televisions airing 24-hour news-around Philadelphia. The newsstands went live this morning and will be expanded to 120. KYW and its sister station, CW outlet WPSG, provide the TV news updates and the five local CBS Radio stations do the marquee content.
"CBS 3 and The CW Philly have expanded our Eyewitness News brand across both stations, online and to cell phones," says KWY/WPSG President/General Manager Jon Hitchcock. "Providing a street-level news service is another way to provide the viewer with the news and information they need wherever they are and whenever they need it. Ultimately, we want CBS to be the news source locally."
