Big Four networks try new approach, timing for affiliate meetings
ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC are mixing things up with their 2008 affiliate meetings, by changing the schedules and venues for the events. Both ABC and CBS will time their affiliate meetings to their spring upfront presentations, while Fox will hold its session in March in Los Angeles during its prime-time development update, and NBC has separated its affiliates meeting from the annual TBA marketing conference, in favor of a special West Coast session in May.
