Another round of cuts at the local ABC station. Allen Media Group - Byron Allen, owns 4 ABC stations in Wisconsin. In La Crosse, 8 of the 14 people at the La Crosse station either were laid off or walked out earlier this week. I imagine Eau Claire and Wausau were similar. The local news takes the first 15 minutes of a news show, then they cut to the Madison station for some stories, then back for local weather and sports, although any Packers, Brewers Bucks or Badger stories are handled by the Madison crew. It's pretty unwatchable at this point. They must need payroll for all those stupid TV court shows they produce.
One of the anchors in La Crosse has been at the station for 30 years. No send off, no highlight reel, nothing.
