Director's Cut Blog with Frank Macek

By Frank Macek Mark your remote.

The full show will continue streaming on the WKYC app from 10 a.m. to noon each weekday. But as part of the changes, the show will no longer be streamed live on YouTube.

It's called Clear the Shelters , and while it has grown into a nationwide initiative led by NBC and Telemundo stations, the impact is felt one family—and one pet—at a time right here in Northeast Ohio. Throughout the month of August, WKYC is partnering with more than 20 local animal shelters and rescue organizations to help deserving dogs, cats and other companion animals find the loving homes they've been waiting for. It's one of those campaigns that perfectly reflects what local broadcasting is all about: using our platform to make a genuine difference in the communities we serve. The concept couldn't be simpler. Introduce viewers to adoptable pets. Share their stories. Highlight the remarkable work being done by local shelters. Then encourage people who have been thinking about adoption ...
