KOVR now has a new logo. It is no longer using the logo seen as a result of the Viacom buyout (WGME, another Sinclair property on CBS, uses the same logo style as the old logo for KOVR) - TrackerTV 14:28, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Article name

I have moved this article back to KOVR from KOVR-TV. Consensus on both WP:NC#Broadcasting and Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations#Article_names is that the article name should reflect the actual call letters of the TV station. As can be seen here: [1] the call letters for this station are in fact KOVR. Any concerns regarding this topic would be best addressed here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:CBS 13.PNG

Image:CBS 13.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:47, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Newscast titles

There had been some incorrect information here regarding the timeframes of when certain newscast titles were used at KOVR. The "Newswatch 13" title was not used until sometime between August and November of 1980, and the "KOVR 13 News" title began when Dan Gray became the lead male anchor, which was about April 1987.
