CBS did not merge with Westinghouse in 1994; that came later in 1995-6. See KYW-TV for the correct order of events.

Also, the title of this article is incorrect. The station's callsign is WCAU, not WCAU-TV. According to the FCC database, WCAU-TV became WCAU on 10/06/1995, so it happened under NBC ownership. 18.26.0.18 00:22, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

To the anon: why did you remove the section I added on John Zacherle? -- Decumanus 22:55, 2005 May 31 (UTC)

Not vandalism

Neither of you are vandals. This is an edit war. Page is protected. Talk it out please. Thanks. Rhobite 08:14, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)

• Their is nothing to discuss, their has been a newer extensive article on the subject, that article has not been given due considertion by either users or admins, "establishment", the subject now meets that creteria that mutt and his minons, who have shown threw their edits a massive anti-Philadelphia bias, would list as a creditable person, so their is no reason to de link or speedy the subject in question, and an perosn that does i will consider a vandal or an admin who is abusing their privildges, and re link and recreat the article. But being that i am dealing with the "establishment" , who only seem to work in their best intrests and not in the best intrest of the regular credible user, or in the protection of this site as a vaid source of information of the web, as it is becoming more of a soure wikipedia needs to evolve and reform. As far as i am concerned this discussion is over. --Boothy443 | comhrÚ 08:23, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • The "establishment"? What, pray tell, are the motivations of this evil "establishment", the powers-that-be, for their "massive anti-Philadelphia bias"? --Calton | Talk 08:29, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • The "establishment" = vast majority of admins on here, they are not the anti-Philadelpia gang, who are Spotteddogsdotorg (talk · contribs), and his minions 209.137.173.69 (talk · contribs), 68.83.229.241 (talk · contribs), Toasthaven (talk · contribs), Hohokus (talk · contribs), ConeyCyclone (talk · contribs), et al while all have not made anti-phildelphia edits, basied on my resarch and that of others that these useres are either the same person or or working in coridination with each other, espically in vfd, on pov unsourced edits, to creat general distruption among other things. --Boothy443 | comhrÚ 08:36, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Buh? First you rail on about the "establishment" supporting "massive anti-Philadelphia bias", and now you say they (whoever "they" are) aren't? You're making less and less sense with each edit. --Calton | Talk 11:30, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
      • I think someone (Boothy443) watched too many episodes of the X-Files. I must be a space alien with a "massive anti-Philadelphia bias" and either multiple personalites or mind control. It has to be something in the water down there. Spotteddogsdotorg 06:47, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• • what ever, and your just a tool for the admins that would rahter suppress content, and support adbusive lying admins --213.184.21.88 11:33, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Boy I sure miss those days

I miss those days of WCAU as CBS. Those were the good old days. My mother was still with us and we were happy. If you have any videos of those good times please contact me! I want to relive those days. MrPhillyTV 18:09, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

Divesture to NBC

According to the WTVJ and/or WFOR articles, the deal in which CBS divested WCAU also involved the 2 Miami O&O's swapping dial positions and transmitter facilities...Ranma9617 00:42, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

What should the article name be?

This article has been moved from WCAU-TV to WCAU several times lately. Seems as though that the people that move to WCAU believe article names are dependent on FCC call letters, with the move-backs to WCAU-TV believing that all of these articles need suffixes. Who is correct and where does it say so? --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 23:42, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

In August 2004, Radiojon decided that stations that FCC licenses without the class suffix must be at WZZZ (TV) whereas stations FCC licenses with the suffix should be at WZZZ-TV. Any disagreements with this rule?? Georgia guy 23:44, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

There seems to be an slow, ongoing "move war" (as I call it) that keeps moving this article from WCAU-TV to WCAU back to WCAU-TV back to WCAU, etc. Should we protect from page moves just to enforce that this page is supposed to be WCAU and not WCAU-TV? And the most recent move spread itself to essentially every TV station article in the wiki... this is going to take a while to take care of. Apologies for the long comment, but I have to mention this. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 01:11, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

I put a message on Boothy443's talk page asking why he wants this article at WCAU with a reason that appears to be most probable according to my speculation. Georgia guy 01:12, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
