[edit] A Georgia station or a Florida station?

I have to question whether to include the CBS Georgia template here. Even though WCTV is licensed to Thomasville, for all intents and purposes it's a Tallahassee station. From what I remember in reading previous versions of their Web site, WCTV has NEVER had its main studio on the Georgia side of the market, so it has always considered itself a Tallahassee station.

In my book, WCTV is in the same category as a few other stations licensed in one state, but pretty much identify with another:

On that basis, I would argue that WCTV is a 100% Tallahassee station. Blueboy96 15:49, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

From the current News Director of WCTV: There was a time in WCTV's history that it had two fully-operational studios: one in Tallahassee, FL and one in Thomasville, GA. In the late 60s/early 70s the Thomasville studio was downsized and all production was then moved to the Florida studio. The station still operates news bureaus in Thomasville, GA and Valdosta, GA.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:WCTVFLA.PNG

Image:WCTVFLA.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 this Wikipedia article 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 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.
