Newfoundland Herald

Magazine circulated in Newfoundland & Labrador

This magazine features articles & TV listings for the only 2 over-the-air channels in Newfoundland -- CBC & NTV (a CTV affiliate), along with listings for other channels available through cable in Newfoundland. In addition, the Herald also includes entertainment & lifesyle articles, plus comics and puzzles for all ages.

This is probably the official programming guide for NTV, as it features:

(1) A full-page grid outlining NTV's schedule for the week, in addition to the same schedule in the listings & prime-time grids.

(2) Plenty of ads for NTV's shows (no ads (in the 9/6/97 issue) for CBC, CTV, or any other channel).

(3) Special promotions & contests sponsored by the Herald & NTV.


Notes:

1. White numbered bullets resemble the cable lineup for Cable Atlantic in St. John's, NF.

2. Except for CBC & NTV, named bullets resemble channels that are not available in St. John's.

3. CBC & NTV are carried by several satellites in Newfoundland & Labrador.

4. Bullets are not used in grids.

5. Over-the-air channels not mentioned.

6. TBS (listed as WTBS) & WSBK are listed as pay channels.
