From the mighty Yakima Herald, word comes that Pappas has allowed darkness to descend on that fair city's beloved CW affiliate:

{snippage}
...KCWK-TV, the local affiliate for The CW, went off the airwaves at midnight Sunday, weeks after the station filed for bankruptcy.

KCWK-TV general manager Bob Powers will stay on until the end of June. But the station has informed the Federal Communications Commission that it may return when television begins broadcasting on a digital signal in 2009, and likely under new ownership.

Even though I love them, I always found KTRB to be a little on the half-assed side. You know, an hour of dead air with public service announcements put in without a show on. You gotta love automation!  I sure hope this doesn't hurt their olive oil business. You know the ancient Greek Poet Homer called olive oil "liguid gold". Take that for playing the same songs 2 or 3 times in one night on San Francisco Soundz!
