WTXF’s ‘The Q’ To Air In Seven Cities
Fox-owned WTXF Philadelphia’s The Q is going national for a four-week preview this summer, with seven cities around the country set to get a little brotherly love from the locally shot talk show. Starting June 5, Fox O&Os in New York City (WNYW), Los Angeles (KTTV), Atlanta (WAGA), Detroit (WJBK), Phoenix (KUTP), Minneapolis (WFTC), and Charlotte, N.C., (WMYT) will air The Q.
Each will get three-to-six-week runs. Frank Cicha, FTS SVP of programming, said: “Once again, we’re making it a priority to provide fresh options for our viewers during the summer.”
