Moving from a Superstation to a traditional cable net will be tricky if the goal is to 1) increase subs for additional ad dollars and 2) get carriage fees from cable ops.
It could backfire if the cable ops decide not to pay carriage fees and drop WGN America...resulting in a loss of subs and advertising bucks.
Good luck with that one.
