KMGH now avaliable in La Plata County on DirecTV.

After some stumbling DirecTV/AT&T have now added KMGH ABC7 to it's southwestern subscribers.  La Plata County in southwest Colorado is part of the Albuquerque designated market area, therefore most residents down there receive NBC,ABC,CBS, FOX, My Network TV, & theCW from New Mexico. 

The Denver & Pueblo stations don't cater to this area of the state because it's not in there DMA's. (Designated Market Area).    As we have covered here in the past folks in southwest Colorado are not big fans of New Mexico news and once again they seem to have won a small battle.  So, Trade KOAT-TV for KMGH-TV.

KDVR & KWGN have a new GM.

In early March, Nexstar Media announced a new GM for KDVR/KFCT & KWGN.   It's a familiar name to some here in Denver, Brian Gregory.  He was the VP&GM of KMGH from 2008-2014, prior to that he was the news director of KMGH from 2000-2008.

He comes to KDVR/KFCT & KWGN from Nexstar station WNCN in Raleigh, NC.  He officially started Tuesday March 10th 2020.   I believe he will be a great fit for the two stations, it will allow the two stations to keep the ratings momentum going.

Brian Gregory replaces Joan Barrett who was the VP & GM of the two stations from fall of 2016 to February of 2020. She moved on to Tegna's WCNC in Charlotte.
