UGA shuts down WNEG...

Say goodbye to the only commercial television station in Athens.  OnlineAthens.com reports that the University of Georgia shut down WNEG-TV Friday.  That leaves 17 employees looking to find new jobs.  UGA officials say that WNEG will be re-named WUGA-TV, and will become a public broadcasting station by this spring.
