Jun 3, 2009  •  Post A Comment

KNBC-TV, KTLA-TV and KTTV, owned by NBC, Tribune and Fox, respectively, will announce a local news video-sharing agreement for the Los Angeles market that will begin June 15, Broadcasting & Cable reports.

The stations will pitch in photographers and assignment editors to the pool, with the assignment desk based at KNBC and overseen by KNBC’s Kris Knutsen. Such video-sharing arrangements are becoming more popular with TV stations, as it cuts costs and frees up staff to follow other stories.
