WCVB change

I found this:

*WCVB has launched a substantially revised website.  The new
site<http://www.wcvb.com/>,
which is a part of a roll-out on all Hearst stations, eschews the venerable
naughties-throwback TheBostonChannel.com for a simpler wcvb.com domain.*

*In an effort to retain name recognition, the website features a less
prominent “The Boston Channel” name, though the effort to standardize
branding appears to be in full force.*
