# Talk:KLRT-TV

Can anyone find out if this station was ever owned by Act III Broadcasting?  I recall that stations owned by that company also used the "Prime all the time" slogan. Blueboy96 23:51, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:

WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information."  As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
WP:Source list tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.
If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable.  Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 17:28, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

### Good article criteria
#### Well written
Lead

alongside Pine Bluff–licensed CW affiliate KASN (channel 38). This could be changed to alongside the nearby Pine Bluff–licensed CW affiliate KASN (channel 38). I presume KASN is mentioned because it is a nearby station, because according to Mission Broadcasting, it owns 29 full-power television stations.
Little Rock and Pine Bluff are in the same TV market.
The stations share studios... Is this referring to KASN, because there are several other stations mentioned in the preceding sentence. This could be changed to KLRT-TV and KASN share studios...
Nope, all four. Clarified. This is an unusual arrangement in US television, what might be called a "double duopoly".
South Victory Street (near the Arkansas State Capitol) in downtown Little Rock. Change to South Victory Street near the Arkansas State Capitol in downtown Little Rock. Sentences without brackets are better than with brackets, so brackets should be replaced where possible.
the network moved its affiliation to KLRT-TV in 1990. This confuses me. I though the preceeding sentence was talking about KLRT-TV.
Yes, and this is a bit bizarre. Fox programs moved from channel 38 to 16, then back to 38, then back (for good) to 16. Added the words "for good".
which was then controlled by KLRT-TV under a local marketing agreement. Is this referring to after the acquisition or before?
Reworded
Where in the body is the weeknight morning news broadcast mentioned?
a new morning show, Good Day Arkansas, was launched to supplant the existing 7 a.m. newscast on KARZ
History

Optional: Articles can be linked in the body if already linked in the lead if you so choose.
a group led by Deborah Mathis, a former KARK-TV news anchor. Could be changed to a group led by former KARK-TV news anchor Deborah Mathis. This would reduce the numbers of commas, which would be helpful in a sentence with commas and semicolons.
Done
Is there a reason two of the final bidders are not mentioned. Article says there were eight final bidders and mentions six specifically. Are they just not notable?
I mentioned bidders with large shares in the final licensee and bidders linked to notables (e.g. Milton Grant — this is part of a planned GT).
(While in the general area, KRZB-TV did not reach Little Rock with its signal. It closed down in March 1988.) Would this work better as an explanatory footnote?
Reworded a bit. I am really baffled that the Little Rock papers considered KRZB-TV competition. (I wrote that article too.) It did not reach Little Rock, which was really reason #1 it failed.
South. Link Southern United States (assuming that's what it's referring to.
Done
What/who is Pruett?
Thank you, that info needed to be copied over from KASN. The Pruett family owned KASN at this time.
News operation

In early February. What year is this?
2013. Added.


#### Verifiable with no original research
Spotchecks done for reference 4, 12, 13, 16, 24, 29, 37, 50, 52, 62, 73

As part of a liquidation of Newport Television's assets, Nexstar Broadcasting Group purchased KLRT and KASN in a 12-station deal worth $285.5 million (equivalent to $364 million in 2022) on July 19, 2012. Are you sure that is the date the sale actually went ahead or is it just the date the sale was announced?
Added a new ref here and reworded in a way which will obviate this issue.
Ref 52 is not loading for me.
FCC CDBS refs are bad at this. Replaced with a new ref in a slightly different place.


#### Broad in its coverage
#### Neutral
#### Stable
#### Illustrated, if possible
Optional: Alt text for all images.
Added to the other two logos (which I was considering removing)
An image of any of the station's various buildings or the transmitter would be good, but it's fine if there are none available on Commons.
I do a before check on every page I bring to GAN, but nothing came up. Not all that uncommon for my articles in this topic.
