The entry titled "KXAN moves plane crash coverage to the CW."

By Dale Roe | Thursday, February 18, 2010, 02:06 PM

A recent post from the @KXAN_News Twitter feed indicated that the local NBC affiliate would be staying on the plane crash story and moving the broadcast of this afternoon’s 2102 Winter Olympics events to The CW.

This is inaccurate.

KXAN General Manager Eric Lassberg says that it’s the crash coverage that will move to The CW (KNVA) at 2 p.m.; KXAN will stick with Olympics snowboarding and biathlon coverage until it ends at 4 p.m., and then switch back to crash coverage.

In the meantime, KXAN will run crash coverage on The CW as long as new information becomes available. If the news becomes redundant, The CW will return to its regular schedule with break-ins as warranted.
