Strachota out at WTMJ

Some things I guess you can't blame on NBC's prime-time lineup: Journal Broadcasting's WTMJ-TV replaced Mark Strachota with a returning Steve Wexler as general manager. This comes as once-dominant WTMJ is coming under siege in the ratings from ABC affiliate WISN-TV. Those two Milwaukee stations have been neck-and-neck in the ratings.

And don't expect a return to the glory days of WTMJ news. The "If it leads, it bleeds" philosophy is here to stay.
