WOI-TV was Iowa's second television station and the first TV station owned by an educational institution when it was built by Iowa State College, now <a href="/wiki/Iowa_State_University" title="Iowa State University">Iowa State University</a> (ISU); it signed on February 21, 1950, on channel 4. It operated from studios on the campus in Ames. The foresight of president <a href="/w/index.php?title=Charles_E._Friley&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Charles E. Friley (page does not exist)">Charles E. Friley</a> to expand Iowa State's long-running <a href="/wiki/WOI_(AM)" title="WOI (AM)">WOI</a> radio station into television led to a very early application and allowed the college to beat <a href="/wiki/Federal_Communications_Commission#Freeze_of_1948" title="Federal Communications Commission">a years-long freeze</a> on new TV stations. While WOI-TV was intended as an educational service and aired college courses, <a href="/wiki/Agricultural_extension" title="Agricultural extension">agricultural extension</a> programs, and the long-running children's show <a href="/wiki/The_Magic_Window" title="The Magic Window">The Magic Window</a>, the freeze left it the only TV station in central Iowa, and the <a href="/wiki/Iowa_Board_of_Regents" title="Iowa Board of Regents">Iowa Board of Regents</a> allowed it to accept national network programming and advertising. After the freeze, WOI-TV was moved to channel 5, and new stations sprang up in Des Moines. As a result of the advent of KRNT-TV (now <a href="/wiki/KCCI" title="KCCI">KCCI</a>) and <a href="/wiki/WHO-TV" class="mw-redirect" title="WHO-TV">WHO-TV</a>, WOI-TV lost considerable advertising business as well as <a href="/wiki/NBC" title="NBC">NBC</a> and <a href="/wiki/CBS" title="CBS">CBS</a> programming. To counteract the lost revenue, the Board of Regents permitted WOI-TV to accept local advertising in 1955, though it did not employ its own advertising sales representatives. For decades, WOI-TV existed between commercial broadcasting and university ownership; the federal government ruled its activities were subject to income tax, and there were sporadic calls for ISU to sell WOI-TV to a private entity. With the station deliberately kept from being an aggressive competitor and perceptions that it was a training ground for university students and not a Des Moines station, the station sank to a distant third in local news ratings. Debate over the privatization of state government functions renewed the touchy question of WOI-TV's operational status in the mid-1980s. In 1987, WOI-TV was placed under separate management within the university and encouraged to turn a profit. The sales force was expanded and some of the news staff moved to Des Moines to improve the station's competitive standing, but ratings failed to meaningfully rise, and increased revenues came in below projections. In 1991, ISU president <a href="/wiki/Martin_C._Jischke" title="Martin C. Jischke">Martin C. Jischke</a> recommended WOI-TV be sold, in spite of a down market for commercial TV stations. This was opposed by local residents who felt that WOI-TV was a resource to ISU and a valuable training ground for broadcast professionals. The bidding process was partly mishandled, leading the original winning bidder to withdraw from the process. The regents agreed to a $14 million offer from <a href="/wiki/Citadel_Communications" title="Citadel Communications">Citadel Communications</a> in 1992; Citadel overcame an adverse ruling in court and an attempt by the Iowa legislature to stop the transaction and took control on February 28, 1994. It chose not to rehire 20 employees, canceled The Magic Window, and began migrating station operations and some newscast production to Des Moines. In 1998, the entire station relocated to the present studios in West Des Moines. In spite of multiple rebrands and efforts to improve the news product, WOI continued to find itself a very distant third in the ratings and struggled to change viewers' perceptions of the station. Citadel sold its Iowa stations to <a href="/wiki/Nexstar_Broadcasting_Group" class="mw-redirect" title="Nexstar Broadcasting Group">Nexstar Broadcasting Group</a> in 2013. Under Nexstar, the station rebranded again as Local 5 in 2015. It also gained a duopoly partner when the company closed on its purchase of KCWI-TV in 2016. When Nexstar acquired <a href="/wiki/Tribune_Media" title="Tribune Media">Tribune Media</a> in 2019, it opted to retain the higher-rated WHO and sold WOI and KCWI to Tegna. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Iowa_State_University_ownership">Iowa State University ownership</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=WOI-DT&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Iowa State University ownership">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Construction_and_freeze-era_operation">Construction and freeze-era operation</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=WOI-DT&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Construction and freeze-era operation">edit</a>]</div> Iowa State College's involvement in broadcasting had dated to the earliest days of the medium. An amateur radio station had been set up in 1914, which turned into a full broadcasting station on November 21, 1921.

State officials believed that the state-owned radio stations should not compete with commercial outlets and thus ran them on a non-commercial basis. However, WOI-TV found itself in an unusual position. The four national television networks—<a href="/wiki/American_Broadcasting_Company" title="American Broadcasting Company">ABC</a>, <a href="/wiki/CBS" title="CBS">CBS</a>, <a href="/wiki/DuMont_Television_Network" title="DuMont Television Network">DuMont</a>, and <a href="/wiki/NBC" title="NBC">NBC</a>—had no other outlet for their programs in Ames or Des Moines, and the station held affiliations with all of them when it launched.<a href="#cite_note-BC500227-13">[12]</a> On September 30, 1950, the station began presenting network programs live.<a href="#cite_note-Chic501001-17">[16]</a> The Iowa state board of education adopted a "semi-commercial" posture to the operation of WOI-TV, initially as a stopgap. It allowed the station to take in revenue from national advertising contained in network programs, but the station was not permitted to sell ad time to Iowa businesses or have local time sales representatives. The concept was to create an income source for additional equipment and improvements for WOI-TV's operation.<a href="#cite_note-Iowa501226-18">[17]</a> The station also barred some categories of national advertisers, notably beer and wine;<a href="#cite_note-Chic501001-17">[16]</a> dairy farmers protested when it aired <a href="/wiki/Margarine" title="Margarine">margarine</a> spots.<a href="#cite_note-19">[18]</a> At the time the semi-commercial policy was adopted, the posture was that this would last until TV stations were established in Des Moines, at which time WOI-TV would become a non-commercial service like its sister stations.<a href="#cite_note-Chic501001-17">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-Iowa501226-18">[17]</a> In spite of the restrictions placed on advertising, WOI-TV turned an operating profit in 1951—primarily derived from income from network programming—all of which was offset by capital expenditures.<a href="#cite_note-Siou520309-20">[19]</a> Among these was a studio-transmitter link to connect the transmitter with the Service Building on the Iowa State campus so that equipment could be moved from the transmitter site to the same building as WOI radio.<a href="#cite_note-21">[20]</a> The station moved from the Service Building to Exhibit Hall on the Iowa State campus in 1952.<a href="#cite_note-Ames550223-22">[21]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="After_the_freeze:_New_channel_number,_new_competition">After the freeze: New channel number, new competition</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=WOI-DT&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: After the freeze: New channel number, new competition">edit</a>]</div> The years-long FCC freeze on new station applications ended April 14, 1952, with major changes to television allocations, including the addition of <a href="/wiki/Ultra_high_frequency" title="Ultra high frequency">ultra high frequency</a> (UHF) channels to the existing 12 in the <a href="/wiki/Very_high_frequency" title="Very high frequency">very high frequency</a> (VHF) band and new station spacing requirements.

When ISU began planning for a new WOI-TV tower—to be shared with WHO-TV and <a href="/wiki/KDIN-TV" class="mw-redirect" title="KDIN-TV">KDIN-TV</a>—in 1971, it planned to pay for the tower out of its endowment.<a href="#cite_note-DesM710328-54">[53]</a> A 1973 audit of the station, the first conducted by the state, criticized a "lack of internal control ... and deficiencies", to which general manager Robert Mulhall responded by highlighting the incompatibility of accounting principles common to the television industry with those typically used for government agencies.<a href="#cite_note-Ames730212-63">[62]</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1224211176"><div class="quotebox pullquote floatright" style="width:250px; ;"> <blockquote class="quotebox-quote left-aligned" style=""> When you are a public institution, and you have an operating arm that is customarily considered to be a private-enterprise mechanism, you always have to be conscious of the criticism that might occur if you become too commercially aggressive. </blockquote> <div style="padding-bottom: 0; padding-top: 0.5em"><cite class="left-aligned" style=""><a href="/wiki/W._Robert_Parks" title="W.

Robert Parks</a>, president, Iowa State University, on why WOI-TV was underdeveloped in the area of sales</cite></div> </div> Another issue endemic to WOI-TV's operation—and with a negative impact on its revenue—was that its advertising sales operation was deliberately stunted. In 1971, the station still had no local sales representatives and captured between 12 and 14 percent of the local advertising market—leaving the remainder to the other two local stations.<a href="#cite_note-DesM710328-54">[53]</a> By 1983, while it still employed no sales representatives, a national company sold local and regional advertising under contract for the station with two employees in Des Moines. In comparison, WHO-TV had six full-time sales representatives. This arrangement was adopted to mollify private competition and those who felt a state agency should not compete with private enterprise. This caused revenue to lag. KCCI had revenue of $7 million in 1981; WOI-TV only garnered $4 million in that year.<a href="#cite_note-DesM830227-64">[63]</a> These issues were exacerbated by the poor audience acceptance of WOI-TV's local news and public affairs programming. Even though ABC network shows drew an audience, that audience often departed in droves for WHO or KCCI. WOI-TV operations coordinator Robert Helmers noted, "There's one loud click out there at 10 o'clock, and they're not landing on channel 5."<a href="#cite_note-DesM830227-64">[63]</a> The 10 p.m. newscast averaged a share of between 8 and 13 percent of the audience; the 6 p.m. news had been moved to 5 p.m. to avoid competition; and the noon newscast was dropped. Researchers found that high turnover in on-air personnel—possibly bolstered by a national pension plan that gave lump-sum payments to employees who quit before their fifth year—and the perception of WOI-TV as an Ames station in the larger Des Moines metro area were factors in the poor ratings.<a href="#cite_note-DesM830227-64">[63]</a> Its benefits to the university were sometimes nebulous. <a href="/wiki/KOMU-TV" title="KOMU-TV">KOMU-TV</a> in <a href="/wiki/Columbia,_Missouri" title="Columbia, Missouri">Columbia, Missouri</a>—the only comparable station to WOI-TV—was much more extensively tied in with its journalism school as a teaching tool than WOI-TV, where the news staff was independent and station staff controlled the hiring of part-time students.<a href="#cite_note-DesM830228-65">[64]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Privatization">Privatization</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=WOI-DT&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Privatization">edit</a>]</div> Calls for the sale of WOI-TV from public officials and other broadcasters had been a constant in station history, including in 1955,<a href="#cite_note-DesM551117-42">[41]</a> 1975,<a href="#cite_note-Ames750212a-57">[56]</a> 1983,<a href="#cite_note-DesM830228-65">[64]</a> and 1985.<a href="#cite_note-DesM850221-66">[65]</a> However, as conversations about the size of Iowa state government rose to the fore, WOI-TV came up more frequently. Des Moines stockbroker David Hinton, suggesting a <a href="/wiki/Margaret_Thatcher" title="Margaret Thatcher">Margaret Thatcher</a>–esque privatization push in Iowa, stated, "There are two clear-cut things that, from a philosophical standpoint, no good conservative Republican can have this state be into—and that's WOI-TV and the liquor business" (referring to Iowa's state-run liquor store monopoly).<a href="#cite_note-DesM851121-67">[66]</a> In December 1985, Governor <a href="/wiki/Terry_Branstad" title="Terry Branstad">Terry Branstad</a> announced he would ask the legislature to sell WOI-TV as part of sweeping privatization and consolidation efforts in state government.<a href="#cite_note-Musc851202-68">[67]</a> ISU president <a href="/wiki/W._Robert_Parks" title="W.

Leaders defended Iowa State as a well-regarded center for training television journalists.<a href="#cite_note-DesM851217-71">[70]</a><a href="#cite_note-Cour851217-72">[71]</a> As the controversy continued, Iowa State got a new president: <a href="/wiki/Gordon_Eaton" class="mw-redirect" title="Gordon Eaton">Gordon Eaton</a>, who stated it would be his decision whether to sell the station or not.<a href="#cite_note-DesM860123-73">[72]</a> In February 1986, the Board of Regents approved the creation of an executive committee to make recommendations on WOI-TV and appraise its value.<a href="#cite_note-DesM860220-74">[73]</a> They recommended that ISU continue to own the station but convert it into a separate entity with a strong profit motive, overseen by a separate governing board of directors. If the station could not turn around its finances in a three-year period, it recommended, WOI-TV should be sold.<a href="#cite_note-DesM861213-75">[74]</a> The plan was approved in March 1987.<a href="#cite_note-Cour870312-76">[75]</a> Under the plan, ISU set up the Iowa State University Equities Corporation, a non-profit company held by university administrators. This entity wholly owned the Iowa State University Broadcasting Corporation, whose board of directors included ISU officials, private-sector individuals, and the general manager of WOI.<a href="#cite_note-Gaze870421-77">[76]</a> Following the change, WOI-TV became more aggressive in many areas of programming, promotion, and business operations under new general manager Bob Helmers. Most notable over the period was the shifting of some operations from Ames to Des Moines. In the second half of 1987, the Des Moines office added seven more employees, all in sales and support staff.<a href="#cite_note-78">[77]</a> In August 1989, it rolled out a $250,000 rebrand from "5TV" to "Channel 5" alongside the debut of morning and midday newscasts, a new set, and the hiring of six new full-time news staff. The news assignment desk moved from Ames to Des Moines, even though the newscasts were still presented from Ames.<a href="#cite_note-DesM890827-79">[78]</a> It established a satellite division which provided satellite uplink services for news and business clients, as well as the Cyclone Television Network, the official broadcaster of <a href="/wiki/Iowa_State_Cyclones" title="Iowa State Cyclones">Iowa State Cyclones</a> athletics and regional distributor of the fishing show Outdoor Sportsman.<a href="#cite_note-80">[79]</a> In 1988, the Board of Regents received a report stating that WOI-TV was ahead of schedule in operating on an aggressive commercial basis.<a href="#cite_note-Siou881115-81">[80]</a> In spite of the improved news product and increased cash flow, the station fell short of its goal to provide $1 million in cash a year to ISU, generating $400,000 in budget year 1988 and $500,000 in budget year 1989.<a href="#cite_note-DesM891212-82">[81]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Sale_process">Sale process</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=WOI-DT&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Sale process">edit</a>]</div> In July 1991, Governor Branstad convened a 22-member committee to analyze further budget-trimming measures. Though he ruled out action on WOI-TV,<a href="#cite_note-Cour910710-83">[82]</a> speculation began to bubble about a new sale attempt. In spite of a down market for television station valuations—said to be at lows not seen since the early 1980s<a href="#cite_note-84">[83]</a>—the idea of investing sale proceeds in new technology was floated, and ISU had a new president, <a href="/wiki/Martin_C._Jischke" title="Martin C. Jischke">Martin C.

He declared, "I believe the ownership of a commercial television station is not essential to the mission of our university." A consultant's report found that another $2 million in investment to move the station from Ames to Des Moines was required to make the station more competitive.<a href="#cite_note-DesM910917-87">[86]</a> The board unanimously allowed ISU to seek buyers on September 26.<a href="#cite_note-DesM910927-88">[87]</a> Unlike in 1955, when the Iowa Broadcasters Association called for WOI-TV to be sold, this time the broadcasters opposed the sale, noting that WOI had prepared broadcasters for careers in Iowa.<a href="#cite_note-Gaze911029-89">[88]</a> In February 1992, the Iowa Television Group—a partnership of Des Moines lawyer <a href="/wiki/David_W._Belin" title="David W. Belin">David W. Belin</a> and Gary Gerlach, publisher of the Ames Daily Tribune and former publisher of The Des Moines Register—was announced as the winning bidder of seven proposals for $12.5 million.

Belin had as a client Marvin Pomerantz, the president of the Board of Regents.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920215-90">[89]</a> Days after the sale was announced, regents changed their mind, unsure of the financial viability of the Iowa Television Group deal.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920220-91">[90]</a> Consultants found that the broker hired for ISU might have compromised the process by suggesting the station could go for less than $13.6 million and that the university should have simultaneously negotiated with the two highest bidders.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920311-92">[91]</a> Iowa Television Group complained that a second bidder, <a href="/wiki/Citadel_Communications" title="Citadel Communications">Citadel Communications</a>, had improved its offer after an agreed deadline.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920320-93">[92]</a> Neil E. Harl, a professor of agriculture and economics at ISU, objected that the deal was not in the public interest, calling it "risky", dangerous to ISU academic and extension programs such as the journalism program and university's satellite uplink, and overly favorable to the buyers.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920228-94">[93]</a> In March, the Board of Regents reopened negotiations with the top six bidders, led by Iowa Television Group and Citadel.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920312-95">[94]</a> Iowa Television Group did not participate in the second round of bidding, and Citadel presented what was reported as the high offer of $14 million in April.

On May 11, Jischke said the station should not be sold, this time because the bids from Benedek and Citadel were financed by <a href="/wiki/Junk_bond" class="mw-redirect" title="Junk bond">junk bonds</a> that he believed put ISU at risk.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920512-97">[96]</a> Citadel increased its bid to $14 million, all cash, and let ISU keep $1.3 million in accounts receivable.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920516-98">[97]</a> Over Jischke's new recommendation, the regents voted 6–3 to approve the new Citadel offer on May 20, 1992, a decision that stunned station supporters in Ames.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920521-99">[98]</a> Days of whiplash followed. The Iowa Legislature, amid a special session on the budget, swiftly moved to block the sale. The House voted 53–33 and the Senate 33–41 to block the sale,<a href="#cite_note-DesM920522-100">[99]</a> but Governor Branstad objected to the legislation, which he believed interfered with the business of the Iowa Board of Regents,<a href="#cite_note-DesM920523-101">[100]</a> and vetoed it on June 3.<a href="#cite_note-Siou920604-102">[101]</a> As regents approved the purchase agreement with Citadel subsidiary Capital Communications Company, Harl led a group, Iowans for WOI-TV, which challenged the sale in court.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920618-103">[102]</a> A <a href="/wiki/Boone_County,_Iowa" title="Boone County, Iowa">Boone County</a> district judge heard testimony that the sale was already causing "irreparable harm" to ISU's broadcast journalism program, with some students believing the station sale was already final, and to WOI-TV, where employee resignations were ticking up. ISU argued that any action to block the sale might cause Citadel to back out altogether.<a href="#cite_note-DesM920709-104">[103]</a> The regents approved the contract in late September,<a href="#cite_note-DesM920924-105">[104]</a> but a month later, the judge overruled the sale. Ronald Schechtman found that the regents were careless in following their own rules and treated the transaction "like Captain Ahab's whale".<a href="#cite_note-DesM921023-106">[105]</a> The Iowa Board of Regents moved to appeal the district judge's ruling.<a href="#cite_note-DesM921028-107">[106]</a> On November 24, 1993, the <a href="/wiki/Iowa_Supreme_Court" title="Iowa Supreme Court">Iowa Supreme Court</a> unanimously ruled in favor of the transaction.

The news stunned staff, who also were relieved to have some certainty over the station's future.<a href="#cite_note-DesM931125-108">[107]</a> The board approved a post-closing agreement with Citadel in February 1994,<a href="#cite_note-Siou940217-109">[108]</a> and though there was a last-ditch loophole in the deal allowing the Iowa Legislature one last shot at blocking it,<a href="#cite_note-DesM940223-110">[109]</a> it failed to muster enough votes.<a href="#cite_note-DesM940301-111">[110]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Citadel_era">Citadel era</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=WOI-DT&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Citadel era">edit</a>]</div> Citadel took control of WOI-TV on February 28, 1994. It did not assume the employment contracts of the station's workers with ISU; it opted not to rehire 20 employees. Among them was Betty Lou Varnum;<a href="#cite_note-DesM940301-111">[110]</a> The Magic Window was canceled, ending its run after nearly 43 years on the air.<a href="#cite_note-DesM940304-112">[111]</a><a href="#cite_note-DesM940305-113">[112]</a> Another casualty of the purchase was the "CityCast" segment seen by Ames-area cable viewers during the 10 p.m. newscast.<a href="#cite_note-114">[113]</a><a href="#cite_note-115">[114]</a> Citadel's dramatic first-day action was expected by some, especially those who had lived through the company's 1985 acquisition of KCAU-TV, in which 22 employees were fired immediately,<a href="#cite_note-Siou851119-116">[115]</a> and knew Citadel as a lean operator there and at <a href="/wiki/WHBF-TV" title="WHBF-TV">WHBF-TV</a> in <a href="/wiki/Rock_Island,_Illinois" title="Rock Island, Illinois">Rock Island, Illinois</a>.<a href="#cite_note-117">[116]</a> Final legal action over the transfer stretched into 1995,<a href="#cite_note-DesM950213-118">[117]</a> as Iowans for WOI-TV challenged the overlap of WOI-TV and KCAU-TV, but one last appeals court decision that February put an end to the battle.<a href="#cite_note-DesM950228-119">[118]</a> With the station in private ownership for the first time in its 44-year history, Citadel faced the challenge of revitalizing a station that had been a consistent doormat in central Iowa TV news. WOI had never had more than a 15-percent share of the audience for local news and sat at 7 percent in the May 1994 Nielsen sweeps; in comparison, KCCI and WHO-TV were vying for the lead with shares of 40 and 38 percent. Viewers saw WOI-TV as an Ames-focused station and a workshop for university students, both of which hurt its image.<a href="#cite_note-DesM940627-120">[119]</a> Its coverage of the <a href="/wiki/Great_Flood_of_1993" title="Great Flood of 1993">Great Flood of 1993</a> was particularly panned in hindsight as poor, even though WOI's Ames location should have meant at the time that flooding impacted the station less than its rivals.<a href="#cite_note-BR061009-121">[120]</a> Citadel worked quickly to fix these issues. In June 1994, it leased a facility in Des Moines at 300 E. Locust Street, which was far larger than its previous office and offered room for a studio in addition to many of WOI's business offices.<a href="#cite_note-DesM940616-122">[121]</a> In November, the news department was split: the evening newscasts moved to Des Moines, but morning and midday newscasts as well as weather forecasts continued to originate from Ames, where WOI-TV had a four-year lease on the Communications Building but began relinquishing space.<a href="#cite_note-DesM940922-123">[122]</a><a href="#cite_note-125">[b]</a> The station hoped to make the continued connection with Ames a competitive advantage to distinguish it from its competitors.<a href="#cite_note-DesM940922-123">[122]</a><a href="#cite_note-BR950109-126">[124]</a> WOI provided a natural fit for Citadel's other stations serving parts of Iowa—KCAU-TV and WHBF-TV in the two-state <a href="/wiki/Quad_Cities" title="Quad Cities">Quad Cities</a> market—which, along with the independently owned <a href="/wiki/KCRG-TV" title="KCRG-TV">KCRG-TV</a> in <a href="/wiki/Cedar_Rapids" class="mw-redirect" title="Cedar Rapids">Cedar Rapids</a>, formed a statewide news network.<a href="#cite_note-BR950109-126">[124]</a> The Locust facility was not large enough to move <a href="/wiki/Master_control" title="Master control">master control</a> from Ames to Des Moines, and Citadel could not find a site in the city that met its needs. In 1997, WOI-TV selected a former <a href="/wiki/US_West" title="US West">US West</a> office in <a href="/wiki/West_Des_Moines" class="mw-redirect" title="West Des Moines">West Des Moines</a>, with nearly 23,000 square feet (2,100 m2) of space.<a href="#cite_note-DesM970927-127">[125]</a> The new facilities offered two studios instead of one and removed technological complexity from the operation, but the station's news ratings continued to be a very distant third behind KCCI and WHO, whose news shares were among the highest in the nation.<a href="#cite_note-BR980330-128">[126]</a> The newscasts relied on one-person photojournalist-reporters and straightforward presentation. On-air personalities received lower salaries than at KCCI or WHO. Mark Baden, a former meteorologist, noted that the station lacked the sort of community and advertising presence that its competitors had cultivated.<a href="#cite_note-DesM980525-129">[127]</a> Among the bright spots was the station's high school sports coverage, considered the most comprehensive in the market.<a href="#cite_note-BR980330-128">[126]</a> It took years for WOI-TV to shed past perceptions. In 2002, operations director Randy Shelton opined that a call sign change in 1994 might have helped people think the station was no longer connected to the university.
