I don't know how the TV stuff works, but I assumed they were stuck with KCTV5 and (until she's fired) Angie due to NFL agreements with the networks. I notice that the article says that the new stations will broadcast "Chiefs games that are broadcast on NBC", so does that mean that most games will still be on KCTV5 and (until she's fired) Angie's station? Does this really mean that they're just moving all their pre-game stuff there?
Sorry, I'm not local, so I don't know the players and stations other than knowing that KCTV5 is evil and that Angie should be fired. |

Locally, KCTV5 carried 65TPT productions, the Chiefs TV network that produces the Preseason games and stuff like "The Franchise" and "the Locker Room" etc. The stuff with Mitch and BJ. Now, instead of KCTV5 having that programming, it will be on channel 41. |

It's a good start, and it sounds like all the Chiefs can really do to rid themselves of the Angie attack pseudojournalism. |

These sorts of things don't just happen. It takes months/years of talk behind the scenes and certainly many conversations and negotiations in that time.
Makes you wonder if the KCTV5 hit pieces were BECAUSE they knew they were losing their TV contract. |

A lot of truth here. Everyone knew the KCTV deal was up this year and when the Chiefs starting looking last off season KSHB was the only station that really showed interest in spending the amount of money the Chiefs wanted.
