WOWK moves up in the world
Finally after almost 15 years the WV Media set is history. Nexstar Media pumped some money into the station. Complete with new set, graphics and music. Aerial is out and Extreme is in for the music.

Re: WOWK moves up in the world
It is about time.
I have complained to them for years about the seams on the set (directly between the anchors),
When they were mis-aligned. Honestly all it would have taken was some due-diligence from the Director and crew to fix this problem. At least their spelling is better than WSAZ. Best of luck to WOWK and Nexstar with their new beginning.

I thought I wasn't the only that noticed that with that set. I also gave them idea to have those remote cameras across the area.
Also Jack Kane had hip replacement surgery.

Re: WOWK moves up in the world
That is Paul Turner the voice of WOWK since 1997 with Image News era. Now if Nexstar would allow them to stream again.
The memories of the Tom McGee era. If someone has old WOWK video of when Tom did the liveshot from the roof of the old Charleston office that would be great to see again.

Re: WOWK moves up in the world
Thanks for the reply. I'd rank him up there with the likes of Mitch Craig and Ernie Anderson. Something about Mitch Craig's voiceovers from the 80s and 90s still give me chills as a former broadcaster.

.... I believe that is Mitch Craig still doing the voiceovers on WAVY-TV in Hampton Roads.

Re: WOWK moves up in the world
Mitch Craig did voice-over work for WCHS during early to late 90s. Also with WVVA.
Charlie Van Dyke was the voice of WAVY till earlier this year. Now its Erik Thompson.
Market TV Voice-over
WSAZ VO- Al Vanik
WCHS VO-Richard Malmos
WOWK VO-Paul Turner
WQBE and other Bristol rabbit stations used to use
John Pleisse as VO up until a few years ago.
