"channel 13 loves you"
Clearly this was produced, but does anybody know if it was used? I've lived in the Indy market my entir elife and have no recollection of this jingle. Lambertman 16:05, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
 * http://youtube.com/watch?v=POTL4aAGpfM I undid your edit.  Obviously the campaign did exist.  I'd side with the original editor here, unless you can show that they didn't bring it back in 91.  --    JT   Holla! 16:13, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

 * How exactly would one prove a negative, and since the original editor provided no source, what makes him/her automatically more credible than me? And I never said the campaign didn't exist. My original comment above proves this.Lambertman (talk) 16:27, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Well, you have waited 11 months to bring this up again. Why did you edit 91 out in the first place, and why do it now?  --    JT   Holla! 16:56, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Well, I edited it out because I believe it to be wrong. The period of time I waited to do so is not relevant. I've been watching WTHR for over 20 years, and I'm the type of person who remembers image campaigns. That said, the first time I ever heard any of the " *channel* loves you" campaigns was on an internet video taken from another market. I have asked the original author to return to this discussion, and maybe he'll be able to provide proof this was actually used on-air in 1991. If he can't/doesn't, then it's exactly the kind of unverifiable info that Wiki frowns upon Lambertman (talk) 19:15, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I would say that your personal recolection as to whether the campaign existed or not is not enough to derail an edit that has been part of the article for awhile now. I would side on keeping it until the original editor could come in and verify the information.  It is unlikely he just pulled 1991 out of a hat.  --    JT   Holla! 13:04, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

"Crosley/Avco poured a lot of money into WLWI?"
I don't agree with this statement in the article. I toured the WLWC studios in middle school just after the station was sold to Outlet Broadcasting. Everything in that building was cut-rate and old, from the RCA TK-41 TV Cameras to the news set, to the desks in the news department. I was told that all the money was spent at WLWT, which was considered the "flagship" and was the source for most of the regional programming. In fact, Outlet was pretty good to the station, immediately upgrading studio cameras, news sets and moving the transmitter to WBNS' 1,100 foot tower (from the 500 foot tower located at on the station grounds). Anyway, I can't imagine that WLWI received any more support moneywise than WLWC did.

I have never heard of that phrase with a cuss word from Channel 13, if true.
That b-word, if it was used by only the entire station staff or not. No one can say that on the air against the city. - Despite Channel 13 has so much of a larger local news operation, they should had taken that phrase off, sooner. - Are they now on the air?

--4.188.66.33 20:56, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

The station signed on September 2, 1957 as ABC affiliate WLWI
This date is incorrect, as WLWI first signed on the air on October 30, 1957. Historiccolumbus 18:29, 19 March 2007
 * http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gInKIMECXSI&NR=1 This promo, which ran on WTHR for a few months, says September 2nd as the date.  We'll roll with what the station says, unless another source is available.  --    JT   Holla! 16:25, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

WTHR Today
Today, WTHR consistently dominates every news timeslot. WISH has been a close second except at 11PM where CBS has helped WISH move ahead. WTHR is also one of NBC's five strongest affiliates for primetime and news programming, ranking up with KUSA-TV in Denver and KSDK in St. Louis. This led to speculation that NBC Universal could buy the station from the Wolfe family and become NBC's first O&O in Indiana and change to "NBC 13". However, NBC Universal recently decided that it only wants to own stations located in larger markets, selling four owned-and-operated stations in several mid-sized markets to Media General. The most likely purchaser for WTHR is thought to be the Gannett Company, which owns KUSA-TV.

It should be noted, however, that the Wolfe family tends to own businesses for the long-term. Wolfe family businesses are profitable and carry very little debt, thus there is little incentive to sell. The Wolfe family controlled BancOhio Corporation, once Ohio's largest bank holding company, for nearly 70 years. The Wolfes also controlled The Ohio Company, once Ohio's largest brokerage, for nearly as long. The Wolfes have owned The Columbus Dispatch since the late 1800s and have been in the broadcasting business since the 1920s. The Wolfe family's last remaining interests are in the media and in real estate, thus it is highly unlikely that they are actively looking for buyers for WTHR.

Fair use rationale for Image:Wthr indianapolis.jpg
Image:Wthr indianapolis.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

A few anchor/reporter changes
Jennie Renevich has been given the job of Weekend Evening Anchor. Took her from reporter and moved her to the anchor section.

Emily Longnecker will join the team this month as a new reporter. Added her name.

Alphabetized the anchors.   -JT    16:12, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Unsourced material
The following is unsourced information:

While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 04:30, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
 * When WTHR swapped affiliations with WRTV in 1979, its final closedown as an ABC affiliate went in an unusual way than its past sign-offs. Two years before, ABC awarded WTHR a cup in honor of its 20-year affiliation with the network. A rifle attached to a camera shot through the cup.  The next day was its first day as an NBC affiliate, and the station played the NBC chimes during its first startup as an NBC affiliate.
 * Late night talk show host David Letterman was a weatherman for the station in the 1970s.
 * Longtime WTHR Chief Meteorologist Bob Gregory, now retired, has a son named Kevin, who currently is the chief meteorologist at competitor WRTV.
 * Three of WTHR's weekday evening anchors, John Stehr (5, 6 & 11pm), Anne Marie Tiernon (5:30 & 6pm) and Scott Swan (Noon and 5:30pm), all previously worked at competitor WISH-TV. Swan and Tiernon were once colleagues at WISH-TV, while Stehr was previously a reporter before moving to CBS as a correspondent.
 * Prior to joining WTHR, Jeremy Brilliant was a reporter/anchor at WRTV. He met his wife Jennifer Carmack at the station. Carmack is still a reporter at RTV 6.
 * WTHR is the largest NBC affiliate in terms of market size to not have a NBC WeatherPlus digital subchannel; likely due to the fact it operates the SkyTrak Weather Network.

Alumni section
A while ago, User:Deconstructhis significantly trimmed the alumni section of the article, and left an edit summary explaining the rationale. This is something both he and I do on TV network pages. Following is the full rationale with policy and discussion links that explains why all people on the list need to be blue-linked or have a reliable source:

 * This (removal of redlinked or unlinked people from alumni lists without reliable source support) is the current consensus procedure, based on discussions at WP:WikiProject Television Stations and at the Village Pump. The rationales are as follows:
 * Most importantly, per WP:NOT, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
 * Secondarily, per WP:V, we cannot include information that is not verifiable and sourced. I'm not certain how it would even be possible to source this information.
 * Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

 * All of the people with their own pages are notable enough to appear on this list. However, if you look at pages about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable.  Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of info, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher).

Thus, I have reverted the most recent addition to the list. Qwyrxian (talk) 01:23, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Digital television table
The Digital television table appears in this article with no column-headers and no data in most fields. The "nothingness" in the left-most columns extends for several pages, causing the section below it to be compressed into the narrow right-most column of the table. It seems unnecessarily difficult to read (using IE9). I'm an expert on neither formatting nor wiki guidelines, but wonder if this is the way the table was intended to be displayed or if it should be updated. Thanks. ZouBEini (talk) 05:44, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

Awards & Honors
Today I set up a new subsection on awards & honors, adding info on WTHR's multiple Edward R. Murrow awards from the RTNDA. While obviously it's a fine line to walk and not get into WP:Peaock territory (ironic since they're an NBC station lol), I do feel since the Murrows are national awards along the same lines as a Peabody and not something like a regional Emmy or some state broadcaster association award that they should be noteworthy enough. What say you folks? Sector001 (talk) 16:47, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

WP:LISTPEOPLE
WP:LISTPEOPLE is pretty clear about lists of people, and content like this does not belong on the article. - Aoidh (talk) 02:20, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Holy cow you're misinterpreting that. You seem to have missed that the name of that page is Manual of Style/Stand-alone lists, usually list articles starting with 'List of (people)...' It does not mean to say that no name may be included in any sort of list if it doesn't have an article; that MOS page does not cover this. And how can that possibly be a WP:BLP concern? We just have to ensure that information is neutral, verifiable, and not original research; though the section does need a source, we're not making any sensitive remarks or potentially libellous statements.
 * I have to agree with Reywas92s unsigned post above ^. I've seen plenty of other TV station articles that have a small listing of staff. Obviously it can get a bit ridiculous to include former, non-notable, staff and such, but I don't see a problem with listing at least the news, weather & sports anchors. Just my two cents. Have a great Wiki kinda day! Sector001 (talk) 16:11, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Notable and non-notable staff and such is determined by reliable sources. If the only source that supports including this list of names is the station itself, then including a link to that list as an external link would serve a better purpose than simply copy-pasting it over to the article, thereby giving undue focus to something that reliable sources do not.  Wikipedia articles are not directories; just because a primary source supports a list of names does not mean that the list of names is suitable for a summary-style article, and that is what WP:LISTPEOPLE covers, which covers when people should probably be included in a list, not simply a stand-alone list. - Aoidh (talk) 22:32, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
 * If you don't think providing the names of anchors is useful then argue that. I think it is. To cite listpeople is nonsense, because this article is not a a list of people. Yes, that does refer to STAND-ALONE LISTS, like List of people of Korean descent, List of people who disappeared mysteriously, or List of American philosophers, just to find a few random examples. It does not refer to smaller sections within an article. Also, there is nothing wrong whatsoever with using a primary source. While an article's notability is dependent on secondary sources, content in an article may perfectly well be sourced to the topic. I really don't understand how it could possibly be undue to give the names of who you see when watching WTHR! I really wouldn't expect another news outlet to give their names, and the lack of separate coverage doesn't make it off-limits here. You have missed that UNDUE is a section of WP:NPOV, and nothing here violates neutrality, so use use of that guideline fails. You completely failed to even read WP:NOTDIR. WP is not the white pages, a catalogue, cross-categorizations, release notes, genealogy, or a repository. Which one of those prevents the names of TV personalities on the same station??? Reywas92 Talk 05:53, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
 * You wouldn't expect it, yet it happens when the people are relevant enough to the subject; there are plenty of similar articles with entries whose notability has been shown through third-party sources, and they don't even have to be notable, just something showing that this person is relevant enough to mention in an article. One or two names?  Sure.  When it starts turning into dozens of names like that, it puts undue focus on something that reliable sources do not.  Articles on cities are not list articles, yet they have the same requirement that people listed there be worth mentioning.  I never said there was something "wrong" with using a primary source, only that a single primary source is insufficient to give that much focus on something in a summary-style article.  You think WP:LISTPEOPLE doesn't apply to a list of people?  There is nothing there that suggests anything close to that.  Before suggesting that I "failed" to read something (which is uncivil at best and borders on a personal attack) please note where it says that Wikipedia articles "are not...lists of persons (real or fictional) ... Of course, there is nothing wrong with having lists if their entries are famous because they are associated with or significantly contribute to the list topic...".  In fact that's the very first thing that's mentioned.  You are welcome to read through the various archives (such as Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Stand-alone lists) if you believe there is some kind of "bright-line rule" for when a list is "stand-alone", but the fact remains that when you put that many names into an article it certainly starts to blur that line.  Since we're just copying the primary source here, what's wrong with simply linking to the source instead of copying it into the article?  The information's "usefulness" is still provided, and nobody has to worry about WP:LISTPEOPLE or WP:UNDUE or anything else; the content also doesn't have to worry about becoming out-of-date; that seems to be a fair compromise that satisfies all the concerns.  - Aoidh (talk) 06:43, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Well whatever the case IMHO you need to step away and give it a little break. I counted five recent reversions by you. Sure seems like edit warring behavior to me. Let someone else handle it for a bit. Sector001 (talk) 03:47, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Do you mean the times over the past few days where I reverted a drive-by addition added without explanation or even an edit summary from an IP editor that has the same editing focus and geolocation as an indefinitely blocked editor who continues to use sockpuppets and IP addresses to continue editing? I appreciate that you have concerns about edit-warring, but persistently re-adding content while ignoring attempts at discussion is not the way to include content in the hopes that it'll stay if you place it in the article enough times.  Aoidh (talk) 04:17, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Since both sides seem unwilling to stop your edit warring I've posted a notice on the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television Stations requesting assistance and guidance in this matter. Perhaps you will listen to the opinion of the Wiki group that actually deal with TV articles frequently. Otherwise the next option is to start issuing warnings and/or drag an administrator into this. Just food for thought, regardless of what WP:LISTPEOPLE and WP:UNDUE may provide as general guidlines, the large majority of tv station articles do indeed include current onair staff lists. For example: KSHB-TV, WGN-TV, WCBS-TV...and many more I could include. If they ALL are wrong too, then someone has an awful lot of work to do changing them all to meet your standards. Sector001 (talk) 22:16, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
 * That you've "seen other articles" with these directory listings is hardly a reason to include them elsewhere, unless those inclusions were done with any sort of consensus or discussed at all? If they were added without rationale that's not much to go by.  In your example WGN-TV, every single name there meets WP:LISTPEOPLE.  If you look on the article's talk page you'll find a relevant discussion (my previous user name was User:SudoGhost).  Multiple administrators have protected such articles before multiple times, so don't call them "my standards".  I am more than willing to discuss and have done so; I started the discussion and made a reasonable proposal to include the list as an external link, when nobody responded after a couple of days I made the suggested changes, and still no talk page discussion.  The IP came along and reinserted the content with no explanation and no talk page use whatsoever, so I reverted it hoping for some sort of talk page discussion.  Nothing.  Big surprise, now they're evading the block so I've reverted their block evading edits (which is not edit warring).  When discussion started I stopped editing the page, when nobody responded, I tried a compromise and only made the edit a few days after suggesting it to give time for any kind of discussion, and then I made the change.  That's your definition of edit warring?  Instead of discussion, we have an IP editor (with the same geolocation and editing focus as an indefinitely blocked editor who quite often uses IP addresses to evade that block) continuing to ignore any attempt at discussion and instead insert their preferred content into the article relentlessly, even going so far as to simply switch IPs when the old one is blocked.

 * Despite that, you choose to accuse me of being "headstrong" and of "not listening" when I started a discussion and ceased to edit when any kind of discussion took place. You're accusing me of edit warring when making a suggestion and only editing the article days after my suggestion and only when no talk page discussion took place objecting to it or even commenting on it in any way, and reverting a IP editor who has consistently shown he has no intention of discussing anything and who persistently evades their blocks.  While I don't doubt that your intentions are to help, throwing around accusations like that and using uncivil language to describe others do not help create a collaborative editing environment. - Aoidh (talk) 02:15, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Adding unreferenced entries of former employees to lists containing BLP material
Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to a list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:

 * 1) WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
 * 2) As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
 * 3) WP:NLIST tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
 * 4) Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable. Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 03:39, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Sir George Burns, 1st Baronet

Sir George Burns, 1st Baronet (10 December 1795 – 2 June 1890) was a Scottish shipping magnate.

Burns was born in Glasgow, the son of Rev John Burns (1744–1839), a Presbyterian minister. George was the younger brother of James Burns (1789-1871), with whom he formed a partnership, J. & G. Burns. Together, they started sailing ships between Glasgow and Liverpool, as well as across the Atlantic to Canada and the United States. J. & G. Burns set up the regular steamer service to the Inner and Outer Hebrides. This was sold to David Hutcheson & Co in 1851, and by the mid-1870s, it formed the basis of David MacBrayne Ltd, which today operates as Caledonian MacBrayne across the west coast of Scotland.

Burns was party to the consolidation of a number of companies, including the British and North American Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, into the Cunard Line, which had been begun by Sir Samuel Cunard. The Cunard Line merged with the White Star Line in 1934, and was to launch liners such as the RMS Queen Mary (1936). Today it is a US-owned cruise company, which operated the famous Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2).

In addition to his shipping interests, Burns was also one of the largest shareholders in The Glasgow and South-Western Railway

Burns retired to Wemyss Bay in what is now Inverclyde (Renfrewshire). He was made a baronet at age 94 in 1889, the oldest ever recipient of the award. A devout Episcopalian, Edwin Hodder wrote a hagiography of Burns, and J. J. Burnet's Inverclyde Church was instituted in the memory of Burns and his wife. John Burns (1829–1901), his eldest son, succeeded him in the baronetcy, became head of the Cunard Company and was created a peer, under the title of Baron Inverclyde, in 1897.

Mae Street Kidd

Mae Jones Street Kidd (February 8, 1904 – October 20, 1999) was an American businesswoman, civic leader, and a skilled politician during a time when both her gender and her inter-racial background made such accomplishments more difficult than they would be today. She had a distinguished career in public relations, served in the Red Cross during World War II, and was a member of the Kentucky House of Representatives from 1968 to 1984, representing Louisville's 41st state legislative district.

During her tenure in elective office, she was known for her sponsorship of landmark legislation. House Bill No. 27 which became law in 1972 created the Kentucky Housing Corporation (KHC) which promotes and finances low-income housing in the state. In 1974, this particular bill was officially designated as the "Mae Street Kidd Act."

Representative Kidd also led the campaign for Kentucky to ratify the United States Constitution's 13th Amendment (abolishing slavery), 14th Amendment (defining citizenship) and 15th Amendment (granting all men the right to vote regardless of race, color, or previous condition of servitude). Known collectively as the "Reconstruction Amendments," all three of those constitutional amendments had become law shortly after the conclusion of the Civil War when a sufficient number of lawmakers in other states had ratified them. Representative Kidd offered and secured adoption of a resolution in 1976 to post-ratify the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments.

Biography
Born on February 8, 1904, in Millersburg, Kentucky to Anna Belle Leer (1883–1984) who worked for a well-to-do white family with a large farm in central Kentucky. Kidd's father, Charles Robert Jones (February 6, 1875 - March 15, 1972), was the son of her mother's employers; and, she was their second child together. Her older brother was George William Jones (July 18, 1901 - July 6, 1986). As a girl she was called Minne Mae Jones. She attended Springfield Institute from 1948 to 1950, University of Louisville, and American University, 1966–67.

Kidd spent her early years in Millersburg, a town in Bourbon County. When she was two, her mother married a tobacco farmer, James W. (Willie) Taylor (1881–1959), who later became a chicken breeder. Kidd's mother, meanwhile, had a thriving catering business and often served as a local midwife. Kidd knew that her real father had married and began a family of his own, "and they and their mother used to come visit my mother, who was very friendly with his white family," she recalled in an oral history interview with Wade Hall. "But I never wanted anything to do with them. I was hurt that he couldn't--or wouldn't--acknowledge me openly as his daughter. It was a painful part of my childhood, but I got over it."

Millersburg's blacks lived in a section of the town called Shippsville, and Kidd went to school there until the eighth grade. As a youngster, she realized that her light skin made it possible for her to skirt the Jim Crow laws that were a feature of life in the American South at the time: under these acts, blacks were restricted to certain schools, seating areas of public transportation, and even drinking fountains and rest rooms. She recalled that she liked to go into the Millersburg millinery shops and try on hats as a little girl, and pointed out that all in the town knew that she was of mixed heritage. Kidd's mother eventually moved the family to Millersburg proper after asking her cousin, who was white, to purchase the house and have the deed transferred to her.

Both Kidd's mother and stepfather worked hard to provide a solid home for the children, which included two more of their own: Kidd's half brother Webster Demetrius Taylor, and a half sister, Mary Evelyn Taylor. As a teenager, Kidd wanted to contribute to the household herself, but her mother refused to let her work for white families, telling her, "Mae, I have to serve other people because I don't have a choice. I want you to have a choice when you grow up." Since her school only went up to the eighth grade, it was decided that she would be sent away to the Lincoln Institute in Simpsonville, created to provide a better educational opportunity in the Jim Crow era. She was 15 years old when she left home in 1919, and spent two years there before her family's financial circumstances forced her to return home.

Kidd found a part-time job selling insurance as an independent sales agent for the Mammoth Life and Accident Insurance Company, a thriving, black-owned company based in Louisville. At the time, black-owned insurance companies were an important part of the African-American economy and some of the largest black-owned businesses of their era. Like black-owned banks, they served a community that was often discriminated against by mainstream American institutions. From 1921 to 1925 Kidd sold policies for Mammoth and collected premiums; to do so she walked all over the black neighborhoods in both Millersburg and a nearby city. "I never had any bad experiences anywhere because everybody knew my parents in Millersburg, and in Carlisle I soon became known and the older people began watching over me," she recalled in an oral history interview, noting that she sometimes collected a hundred dollars in a day.

After four years as a salesperson, Kidd was offered a job at the Mammoth headquarters in Louisville as a file clerk. She shared an apartment in the Mammoth building with a friend, a young woman whose father was a board member of the insurance company. Kidd was thrilled to be supporting herself and living in a relatively large city, which was still a relative rarity for a single woman of any color in 1925. Louisville was still part of the South, however, and it did have unspoken boundaries. "I couldn't use the main public library," Kidd recalled. "I couldn't go to the first-run movie shows on Fourth Street."

After a time, Kidd was promoted to assistant bookkeeper, and then moved to the policy-issue office. In 1935 she became supervisor of policy issues, a job she held for eight years which entailed reviewing all applications for insurance that arrived at headquarters. By then Kidd had married Horace Street, a top Mammoth executive thirteen years her senior. Though much had changed in the years since her girlhood in Kentucky, Kidd still trod a fine line because of the color of her skin, even in the 1940s. Her husband refused to let her travel with him when Mammoth business took him to cities farther South, fearing an incident on the train or the refusal to be rented a hotel room, since Kidd was often mistaken for white. Street died of heart disease in 1942.

Kidd joined the American Red Cross in 1943 and was sent to England during World War II. There she served as assistant director of a service club for black American soldiers in Southampton. According to Wade Hall in his biography of Kidd, while traveling by train in her Red Cross uniform with her darker-complected brother in his Army uniform during World War II, Kidd was asked to move from the "colored" section of the train to the "white" section. Kidd repeatedly refused—and also refused to explain herself, later saying: "I was a grown woman.  I was wearing my Red Cross uniform.  My brother was a grown man, wearing his Army uniform.  We were a brother and sister going to see our parents before we shipped overseas.  We were both American citizens serving our country.  We didn't owe anybody an explanation."

After the end of the war and her Red Cross duties in England, Kidd took a job in Portland, Maine, running its United Seaman's Service Club, a social gathering spot for merchant seamen. Though she was eager to return to Mammoth, she was uninterested in her former job in the policy office, and instead had gained valuable experience in both Maine and England in the relatively new field of public relations. Kidd studied on her own and designed a program for Mammoth. She made her proposal before the board, who voted to accept it, and was given her own office and a secretary. As the public relations counselor from 1946 to 1956, Kidd supervised all company communications and began a number of programs to create goodwill between policyholders and with the communities the company served. Her plan was so successful that she was hired by the National Negro Insurance Association to create a public-relations plan for all of its member companies. In 1948, Kidd also organized the first Louisville Urban League Guild and served as President of the Lincoln Foundation.

She married an American army officer, James Kidd—whom she met while overseas—and moved to Detroit, where he lived. For a time, she worked for a door-to-door cosmetics company, Fuller Projects, in both Detroit and Chicago. Kidd trained agents and sold the line herself, and quit after a time to run a campaign for a candidate running for a seat on the Detroit City Council. It was her first exposure to politics, and she drew heavily on her public-relations experience to help make the campaign a successful one.

When Kidd did return to Louisville, she was not given her former job as Mammoth's public-relations person. Instead she was forced to return to the ranks of company sales agents. Her boss, she recalled in an interview with Hall, "wanted to embarrass me by sending me back to selling ordinary insurance, but I embarrassed him by selling more insurance than anyone in the history of the company."

She retired from the company in 1966, at the age of 62. Much had changed since she began with Mammoth in the early 1920s, when it was one of several dozen such insurance companies that served the African-American community. "Unfortunately, with integration in the 1950s and 1960s, the white companies began opening up their policies to blacks, and blacks deserted their own companies in droves.... It's sad but true that this desertion by blacks of black insurance companies is just a part of a larger problem in the black community: we just don't have enough confidence in our own people to patronize each other."

Public office
Two years later, at the dawn of a new civil rights era with federal laws barring racial discrimination in all forms, Kidd was invited by a number of Louisville Democrats to run for a seat in the House of Representatives in Kentucky General Assembly. She declined several times, but her husband thought it would be a good opportunity for her talents. So Kidd agreed, and won her first election after campaigning with a carload of neighborhood children, who helped her pass out flyers nightly in different sections of her Louisville district. "Their youth and energy boosted me when I was exhausted," she recalled. "They liked riding in my car and meeting people and being part of an important project."

Elected that fall, Kidd went to Frankfort and took her seat in Kentucky's General Assembly. She was one of just three African-Americans in the legislature at the time. The first bill she sponsored prohibited racial discrimination in housing. After several of Kentucky's cities passed their own local open-housing legislation in 1966 and 1967, Kidd worked with Senator Georgia Davis Powers and Representative Hughes McGill to introduce the Kentucky Fair Housing Act to the Kentucky General Assembly. Kidd's bill passed in 1968, making Kentucky the first Southern state to enact such laws on its own.

In the early 1970s, she sponsored a low-income housing bill that created a state agency to provide low-interest mortgages to first-time home buyers. Kidd struggled for some time to get this bill passed, and only with the election of a new governor in 1972 did she finally succeed in seeing it signed into law. She also sponsored a proposal to make the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. an official state holiday. In her career in Kentucky's General Assembly, Representative Kidd's "firsts" also included being the first female on the Rules Committee.

Re-elected until 1984, when she lost after her district was gerrymandered several times, Kidd made civil rights her focus. In the mid-1970s she learned that Kentucky had voted against the 13th amendment in 1865 and never ratified the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the U.S. Constitution. These abolished slavery and gave U.S. citizenship and the vote to African Americans. It was a symbolic oversight, and Kidd was determined to correct it. She launched a campaign in 1976 to have the amendments officially ratified, and it passed unanimously. "It was especially important to me because I am a proud Kentuckian, and I didn't want that blot to remain on our history," she wrote in her memoir. Kidd also introduced a bill to make Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday an official state holiday.

For a number of years, Kidd was a frequent presence in civil-rights marches and events in her state. She was also known for speaking her mind. Mervin Aubespin, associate editor of Louisville's Courier-Journal, told a reporter for the paper that early in her political career Kidd never hesitated to call the paper over its political coverage, especially when a reporter's article included quotes only from white males. "She would call up and say 'I was there and nobody asked me.' She raised holy sin.... She figured that people who voted for her needed to know what her position was on a number of issues that came through the legislature."

End of career
Kidd was active in a number of charitable organizations throughout her life, including the Lincoln Foundation, which helped disadvantaged children at the facility that had once schooled her.

Toward the end of her life, she lost her eyesight. She died in Louisville on October 20, 1999.

Her biography, based on nearly 40 oral history interviews by Wade Hall, appeared two years before her death, and its title, Passing for Black, reflected her mixed heritage and the conflicts she often experienced because of it. "Most of us, whether white or black, are mixtures of many races and nationalities," she pointed out. "We all have tangled roots." She noted that though times had changed considerably, her childhood was particularly difficult. She likened it to "living in a no-man's-land where I belonged to neither race. Because I was neither completely white nor completely black, I've been stigmatized and penalized by both races."

Awards
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People presented to her its Unsung Heroine Award at a National NAACP Women's Conference, and she received a Louisville Mayor's Citation for Outstanding Community Service. She also received a Top Ten Outstanding Kentuckians Award; and the Humanitarian Service Award from the United Cerebral Palsy Association.

Fast Food (1989 video game)

Fast Food (sometimes referred to as Fast Food Dizzy) is the title of two slightly different maze video games in the vein of Pac-Man. Both feature Dizzy an anthropomorphic egg designed by the British-born Oliver Twins. The game was originally released in April 1989 and published by Codemasters. It was the third title to feature Dizzy.

The 8-bit versions of the game were released for the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64 and Amstrad CPC with mazes of abstract design. The 16-bit versions released for the Amiga, Atari ST and DOS have environments that are identifiable as real-world locations such as gardens, harbours, and graveyards.

Gameplay
Dizzy's aim in each maze is to gather all of the food (burgers, pizzas, etc.): some of the food also moves around the maze, either evading Dizzy or trying to meet him. Dizzy is pursued by four mushroom-like monsters: Bonzo, Wizza, Pippa, and Fido. Power-ups and breakable walls add to the complexity of the game.

Development

The game was playable within three days of work; the developers only took two more weeks to finalize the graphics, interface and music.

The game was originally to be a marketing tool for the Happy Eater chain of restaurants, but this idea was dropped during development and Dizzy was added to the game.

Legacy
A shortened, altered version of the game, entitled Easter Eggstravaganza Dizzy, was made available on Amiga Action and ST Action coverdiscs in May 1993. Completion of this game would give players a code which would allow them to enter a competition in the magazine.

In November 2020, a completely new version of Fast Food (now titled Fast Food Dizzy) was released for the Nintendo Switch. It was developed and published by the Oliver Twins on the FUZE program for the console.

"Crazy like a FOX"
This isn't a channel slogan per se; it's the tagline for their promos for their syndicated sitcoms (Simpsons, Malcolm, Seinfeld). So no, it's not the slogan, but that's where the previous editor got it. Lambertman 17:20, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Adding unreferenced entries of former employees to lists containing BLP material
Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:

 * 1) WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
 * 2) As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
 * 3) WP:Source list tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
 * 4) Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable. Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 21:35, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

WTTV/WTHI's channels
This article says that WTTV was once on channel 10, but changed to 4. According to my grandpa, WTHI was once on 4, but right now it's on 10. Can someone confirm this? The WTHI-TV article says nothing about this. --User:Evice User talk:Evice Special:Contributions/Evice 01:33, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
 * No, WTHI was never on channel 4. WTTV moved to channel 4 so it could cover Indinapolis better, and that created an open space for channel 10 in Terre Haute.  WTHI did not sign on at all until a few months after WTTV moved to 4. DonutLover 00:20, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

"fucking up like channel 4"
Okay, I await proof of this phrase. I've never heard it in my life, and apparently neither has the editor who tagged it before I deleted it. Lambertman 15:22, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Please clarify. You never heard it, but you used it? Lambertman 12:51, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

 * no, I have never, ever used the phrase. I meant I would refer to the station as the epitome of poor picture. Scottandrewhutchins 14:06, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Where does the phrase even come from? 161.225.129.111 15:27, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

 * This phrase has a general meaning somewhere in between "all messed up" and "slipping out of line" ... it may be obscure, and only occasionally referenced - but its origins are as such:

 * In rural areas, before the full predominance of cable, broadcast TV had significant bleed through and interference in the 3 and 4 channel bands
 * VCR players originally had a switch to select channel 3 or 4 depending on the local noise
 * trying to actually watch one of those channels in that era was painful, sometimes it would be fine but weather and sun spots and holy wrath might suddenly result in either a partly viewable channel or one that is all out of whack

 * thus the phrase - It is one of those things that you just had to live through to fully unappreciate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Criley002 (talk • contribs) 02:36, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Omissions & Additions
First WTTV promoted themselfs "Indiana's oldest continuously operating television station". This was because, though they went on the air after WFBM-TV WFBM had a transmitter failure shortly after they went live and were off the air for an extended period (months?) of time while they rebuilt the transmitter. WTTV never has been off the air for any major period of time.

Second I think that the early broadcaster of the para-normal and UFO news, Frank Edwards had a TV version of his show "Stranger than Science" which was produced at WTTV.

Jersey Evening Post

The Jersey Evening Post (JEP) is a local newspaper published six days a week in the Bailiwick of Jersey. It was printed in broadsheet format for 87 years, though it is now of compact (tabloid) size. Its strapline is: "At the heart of island life".

1890 to 1945
The Evening Post was founded in 1890 by H.P. Butterworth, with the first issue published 30 June 1890. It was acquired only a few weeks after its launch by Walter Guiton, whose business printed it.

The Post was produced sheet by sheet on a flatbed press until 1926, when Guiton oversaw the introduction and operation of the first rotary press. Guiton remained the main proprietor and editor until the following year, when his son-in-law Arthur Harrison took over. The latter stayed in both positions until he was succeeded in 1944 by his son, Arthur G. Harrison. Under the Harrisons, the newspaper, while undergoing little technical change, saw testing times as the island came under German military occupation from 1940 to 1945. Although it was still published during these years, the Post was strictly supervised and censored by the occupying forces.

1945 to 1972
After the island's liberation in 1945, the newspaper grew and in 1957 became the main asset of a newly formed business entity called W E Guiton and Co Ltd.

Following the closure of the Morning News in 1949, the Evening Post has been without a regular English-language competitor, and the closure of the French-language newspaper Les Chroniques de Jersey at the end of 1959 left the Evening Post as the only newspaper of record in Jersey to publish the Jersey Gazette of official notices and promulgation of laws.

In 1967, the newspaper's name was changed from Evening Post to Jersey Evening Post.

1973 to 2003
Control of the paper passed in 1973 to Frank Walker, who would later become Jersey's first Chief Minister. The Guiton Group expanded outwards from newspaper production in the late 1970s into IT, through its subsidiary company Itex. In 1998, it purchased the Guernsey Evening Press and Star.

2004 to 2021
Subsequently, the Guiton Group was purchased in 2004 by the Claverley Group, publishers of the Express and Star.

On Christmas Eve 2008, the paper published a satirical cartoon which led to accusations of defamation by two local politicians and anti child-abuse campaigners, Trevor Pitman and Shona Pitman. The resulting libel action case was dismissed in court, in April 2012.

On June 30, 2015 the Jersey Evening Post celebrated its 125th birthday.

In January the JEP donated its photographic archive of 1.5 million images to the Island. The archive – a collection of glass plates, negatives and prints which record the richness and variety of Island life since the paper was founded in 1890 – has been conserved and digitized by Jersey Heritage so that they can be accessed and enjoyed by Islanders for ever. In March 2015 the JEP launched their 125th anniversary exhibition at the Jersey Museum entitled "Your Story, Our History: 125 Years Through a Jersey Evening Post Lens". It included more than 1,500,000 images and tells the Island’s story through both world wars and beyond. In August 2015, JEP staff teamed up with the parish of St Saviour to work on their Battle of Flowers float. Celebrating the newspaper’s special anniversary, Hot Off The Press, featured a printing press complete with moving cogs and rolls of paper, as well as a birthday cake and a huge newspaper.

It also launched the inaugural Pride of Jersey awards. The awards are split into 12 categories, each one of them celebrating the very essence of Jersey life. The winners were announced at a ceremony on 23 September 2015 at Aviation Beauport.

2022 to present
In October 2022, the newspaper completed their merger with the Bailiwick Express. They then renamed their joint holding company from MH Ltd to All Island Media.

Jèrriais
The Jèrriais - Jersey's native language column hosts articles written in Jersey's dialect of Norman, Jèrriais, accompanied by a précis and vocabulary in English.

In 1911 Philippe Le Sueur Mourant (1848–1918) launched a new series of stories in the Morning News relating the adventures and opinions of Piteur Pain, supposedly a former country blacksmith turned foreman of the printing shop, and his family. This series of stories moved to the Evening Post between 1915 and 1916.

Following the closure of Les Chroniques de Jersey, the Ph'lip et Merrienne articles started appearing in the Evening Post from 2 January 1960. Written by Edward Le Brocq (1877–1964), who had worked for the Evening Post before becoming editor of the Morning News, they took the form of a letter to the editor supposedly written by an old farming couple from St. Ouen commenting on personalities, events and elections laced with humorous observations on Jersey history and traditions.

Following the death of Edward Le Brocq, George Francis Le Feuvre (1891–1984) contributed a Lettre du Bouonhomme George under the pen name George d'la Forge. Since he had emigrated to North America after the First World War and subsequently taken United States citizenship, most of the letters had either an international flavour, commenting on life and politics in America, or nostalgia for the Jersey of Le Feuvre's boyhood.

Following the death of George d'la Forge, Sir Arthur de la Mare (1914–1994), a retired ambassador, took over the task of contributing regular columns to the newspaper. Written in the Trinity dialect, as distinct from the St. Ouen dialect used by George d'la Forge, Sir Arthur's articles included reminiscences of his life as a diplomat, especially in the Far East, as well as comments on events and politics in Jersey.

Since Sir Arthur's death, a roster of contributors has maintained the tradition of the weekly (or fortnightly) newspaper column. Currently, the writer of this feature is Geraint Jennings.

Subchannels
So I know I am just a random user (no username), but I check these pages often as I live in the South Bend area. It has been a bit of a frustration to see subchannels added to these pages that do not actually exist on the broadcast. They are all tagged with "(Soon)" as if to indicate that they are coming to the station soon but none of them cite a source to credit that as truth and some of the edits have been there for months. This page, WSJV, seems to be the worst culprit. But WNIT also seems to have become a victim as well. I'm not one to name names, but looking at the edit history it all seems to have been added by the same user. Are subchannels exempt from needing a source cited? Because I would think they should be just as accurate as the rest of the article.

I wasn't sure where to bring this up, but figured the Talk page was probably an OK place to do it. If it is not then an Admin may feel free to delete this. 167.239.221.102 (talk) 14:44, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

Highlander: The Raven

Highlander: The Raven is a Canadian-American science fantasy action-adventure television series based on the Highlander franchise. It was a short-lived spin-off from the television series Highlander: The Series, continuing the saga of a female Immortal. The series followed the character of Amanda (played by Elizabeth Gracen), a character that originated as a recurring role in the earlier series. The Raven was filmed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and in Paris, France; it was produced by Gaumont Télévision and Fireworks Media in association with Davis–Panzer Productions.

Premise
In the pilot, Immortal thief Amanda meets Nick Wolfe (Paul Johansson), a cop who is investigating a series of robberies. During the course of the investigation, Amanda is framed for murder by a crooked cop from Nick's department. Amanda's name is cleared, but not before Nick's partner Claudia Hoffman (Torri Higginson) sacrifices her own life to save Amanda's. Nick discovers Amanda's immortality when he sees Amanda die, then get up and run away.

Claudia's death has a profound effect on Amanda, and throughout the series (with help from Nick's own strong moral code), she attempts to change and become a good person. She discovers that she caused the deaths of a battalion of soldiers in World War I, which further influences this change. Amanda finds herself facing up to Immortals, even if she does not think she can beat them, when previously, she would have run away.

In the final episode, Nick inhales a deadly poison, and is told he has 24 hours to live. Amanda, trying to do the right thing, shoots him. When he awakens a few seconds later, he discovers that he too is Immortal. The reason behind shooting him was that his immortality could only be triggered by the shock of a violent death. To Amanda's dismay, Nick is none too happy about it. The series ends on a cliffhanger with Nick walking away, angry at Amanda for not telling him that he was Immortal (which she had known all along), and for making the decision for him.

Characters

 * Amanda (played by Elizabeth Gracen) – A 1,200-year-old Immortal, a thief and Duncan MacLeod's lover on multiple occasions.
 * Nick Wolfe (played by Paul Johansson) – An ex-cop who befriended Amanda and together solved crimes.

Reception
Critical reaction to Highlander: The Raven has been mixed, more so than Highlander: The Series, which has received generally favorable reviews from critics. Rob Lineberger of DVD Verdict praised several episodes of the show ("War and Peace" in particular, for "recaptur[ing] the magic of classic Highlander through carefully staged flashbacks, compelling moral questions, Immortal ethics, and amazing stunt work") and said that "there is something singularly compelling about [the show], something that makes [the DVD set's] $40 street price worth considering," but said of the show overall: "The writing is below the common denominator, using clichés in the blandest ways, ... the chemistry between the two leads is rudimentary at best, with little to no character development, [and] the style of the show is somehow off, the music awkward, the direction formless."

David Nusair of Reel Film said: "[While] Gracen and Johansson are effective in their roles, ... it's not terribly difficult to see why Highlander: The Raven never took off; the show essentially abandons the sort of elements that made the previous series and all the movies so successful, choosing instead to take a less conventional route. And while all these episodes are entertaining enough, fans hoping for another by-the-book Highlander spin-off will surely be disappointed." Peter Schorn of IGN criticized the series for its "weak writing, lame action, and utter lack of chemistry between the stars." Schorn said that while the second half of the show "beg[an] to find its footing" by having a "greater sense of atmosphere" and "balanc[ing] the cast to preserve some semblance of Highlander continuity," the first half "features generic cop show convention exploited to exhaustive effect while the characters undergo rote personality arcs and character development better suited for Moonlighting knock-offs."

Jeffrey Robinson of DVD Talk also felt that "the second half of the series is more interesting [than the first]," saying: "At first I did not find the show appealing at all. The problem was the show is not Highlander and it tried to move in too many different directions. For the most part it tended to be a cop show with immortals. ... Once the series was about halfway through, my opinion began to change. I found the show was getting more entertaining as it started to fall back to the traditional format of Highlander. By the end of the last episode, I felt cheated there was not more because the finale ends with a cliffhanger that would have been a great lead into a second season." Robinson concluded: "I enjoyed watching Highlander: The Raven, but not enough to recommend it."

Home media
Anchor Bay Entertainment has released the complete series on DVD in Region 1.
