The sale of network partners. Asked if after all that has happened, he could align his station with CBS. he replied. "I expect to be affiliated with some network." George Schweitzer, a corporate spokesman for CBS, said. "We have no comment on any of these matters except to say CBS will have an affiliate in Miami." McDonald did leave the door slightly ajar.

"I have no intention to sell, but sometimes when someone wants something badly enough, they can make an offer that forces you to think about it."

TVX's president and chief executive officer, Tim McDonald, said he has no plans to sell the Miami station to CBS.

"When we bought five stations the others are in Houston, Dallas, Washington and Philadelphia, we did so to own and run them. Miami is a great city, and we plan to own and operate a station there." Moreover, McDonald added, he intends to run WCIX as an independent station. TVX owns mdkoto progrwu Shodtd Qf90i 0ldtCOt0 mown stations in Norfolk, Nashville, Memphis, San Antonio.

17 when his Taft deal was announced) that I didn't think CBS would buy WCIX. My opinion hasn't changed." McDonald's view is in synch with just about everyone in the industry. Channel 6. which is licensed to South Dade, has signal problems that make its signal either weak or unavailable in thousands of Broward County homes. The problem can't be fixed, because an increase in power would interfere with an Orlando station.

If CBS bought the station, it would concede a tremendous advantage in South Florida homes reached to ABC and NBC. McDonald is a refreshing throwback to the good old days of last year in television. Unlike the bottom-line zealots who have seized control of all three major networks, he's entertainment-oriented. Before he put together the capital to buy stations, he worked as a program director and promotion manager, always for independent stations. McDonald emphasizes his background when he faces the money guys on Wall Street.

"I tell them all three networks have passed from entertainment people to business people, who aren't concerned with programming." Television is big business, but it's driven by what comes over the air. He has another boast that makes him unique in the contemporary TV environment. "I have never cut back my staff for budget reasons." This shouldn't be misinterpreted, he emphasized. "In our company, we make a plan that's veryf definitive, then we watch that plan. Every cost center explains any budget variances, over or under, every month.

I don't let other people interpret these figures for me. I go over them myself. By not letting the company get fat during good times, we don't have to cut back when things aren't going well." Besides his enthusiasm for the Fox game plan, McDonald is a strong advocate of sports as an audience magnet for an independent station. Talking as if his latest acquisitions were already in the fold, he said. "We have the (NBA) Bullets in Washington.

We have the NBA Rockets and baseball Astros in Houston, and the baseball Phillies in Philadelphia. We're monitoring the NBA situation in Miami closely. I understand a franchise could be awarded in April. If Miami gets a team, we will be very interested in carrying the games." He sounds like a man who plans to be here a while.
