In a surprise move, WSB-TV is preempting its regular airing of the “Tamron Hall” syndicated talk show for the next three months.

Hall’s show will instead air at 1:36 a.m., which will enable fans who DVR the show to still watch it later.

Linda Stouffer and Karyn Greer are co-anchoring a temporary 3 p.m. Channel 2 Action News newscast that began today instead of the fourth season debut of Hall’s show. Greer just started on air at the station last week and is also co-anchoring the 5 p.m. newscast.

Stouffer told the audience the 3 p.m. newscast will air until the midterm elections.

The extra newscast will enable WSB-TV to accommodate more political ad spending that is expected in the coming weeks focused mostly on the competitive Senate and gubernatorial races.

In 2022, Georgia Power projected its winter peak electricity demand would grow by about 400 megawatts by 2031. Since then, Georgia has experienced a boom of data centers, which require a large load of electricty to run, and Georgia Power's recent forecast shows peak demand growing by 20 times the 400-megawatt estimate from just three years ago.
