Lede

 * Well written, no issues.

History

 * Hyperlink 1948 freeze to Federal Communications Commission
 * Done
 * WSKY was out of the contest by August 1953,, "out of the contest" kind of informal? Would like to know an explanation :)
 * Fixed. Informality tends to crop up from time to time in my work...
 * By July, work was under way on the Mount Pisgah transmitter facility, and a September 18 start date goal had been set;[13] WLOS-TV had signed for affiliation with ABC and the DuMont Television Network.[14], what year? If it's in 1954 you could use By July of the same year... or specify.
 * Fixed with mention earlier.
 * Citizen-Times option,..., he Citizen-Times option through his other broadcast property,..., italicize Citizen-Times?
 * I am referring to the company, not the newspaper of the same name, which it owned.
 * AnchorMedia, mentions of the company should be spaced into "Anchor Media" on the sources given ([36] and [37]).
 * I will object because the papers cited are in the wrong. The company's own logo CamelCases this name. Trade journals do too.
 * It also was something of a consolation prize;, outmuscled, informal but would like to hear a reason why this is so.
 * Changed.

Programming

 * It also was initially the smallest of the three TV newsrooms in the region., change to it was also.
 * a news bureau in Spartanburg., hyperlink Spartanburg.
 * These two fixed.
 * AnchorMedia, mentions of the company should be spaced into "Anchor Media."
 * See above.

Technical information

 * FCC, hyperlink.

Spotchecks

 * Manual checking, earwig, both shows nothing. Pass.

Images

 * All images have proper licenses and captions.
 * No copyright violations in the images.
 * Would be nice if we put some images of the notable former on-air staff on the Programming section.
 * I've never had this floated at me, and while it might work for a few articles where the people had longer stays at the station or became really famous (e.g. maybe Tom Brokaw at KTIV), it really doesn't with this crew.

Misc.

 * Article has no ongoing edit war, stable.
