NorthPine.com is run by Jon Ellis, whose "real job" is as a news producer at KCRG-TV9 in Cedar Rapids. Send any news items, updates, or corrections to JonEllis@NorthPine.com. Upper Midwest Broadcasting covers Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Michigan's Upper Peninsula, northwestern Ontario, and Manitoba. Unless otherwise indicated, news items on this site come from one of four sources: Uppper Midwest Broadcasting is intended to be a "site of record" for major events such as station sales, new station sign-ons, format changes, and major facility changes. However, items such as lineup adjustments and personnel changes are only reported when the author is receiving the information firsthand, rather than duplicating changes already reported by other sources. The site first went online in Summer 1996. It was originally known as The Minnesota/Western Wisconsin Radio and TV Page, then the Minnesota/Wisconsin Broadcasting Page until the site was expanded to its current name and coverage area in April 1999. It was hosted by Prodigy until June 1998, and then located for a short time at GeoCities until NorthPine.com was launched in March 1999. | ||||
