Will News Corp Create “Fox 2?”

By Brian 

E-mailers have been asking why I’m not covering the CW announcement. It doesn’t specifically relate to network or cable television news, so it doesn’t fall under the realm of TVNewser. But The Hollywood Reporter includes an interesting mention of FNC:

“There was conjecture yesterday “that News Corp. could move to repurpose programming from Fox Broadcasting, Fox News Channel, FX and other outlets on its stations that are soon to lose their UPN affiliation in such top markets as New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Speculation about such a move was so rampant at the National Association of Television Programming Executives confab that executives were already referring to that valuable real estate as ‘Fox 2.'”
