Thursday, Aug. 5, 1-2 p.m. ET

TV stations, particularly in smaller markets, could be operated for the most part from corporate technology centers where master control, playout and production technology will reside. Is this the optimal strategy for station groups? If so, what steps do groups need to take to bring this mode of operating about and how well is current technology able to meet groups’ needs?

On Thursday, Aug. 5 from 1 to 2 p.m. ET, TVNewsCheck will host the Working Lunch Webinar, HOW WILL HUBBING AND THE CLOUD AFFECT THE FUTURE OF TV STATION GROUP OPERATIONS?

Executives from Tegna, Hearst Television, Gray Television and E.W. Scripps will examine how master control hubbing is being updated in a more multichannel world.
