I understand there might be an “increased demand” for more local news… but this definitely isn’t what anyone was asking for. -

Yep, Tegna issued a press release today saying that all of it's stations will have 7-9am online-only newscasts by the fall: https://www.tegna.com/tegna-announces-major-local-news-expansion-adding-more-than-100-hours-of-new-daily-programming-across-50-markets/- 3700 replies

What we’ve seen so far looks great. The new on-air package borrows a lot from the GMA3 look. I never thought the lighting in TSS was particularly bad but the lighting at 7 Hudson Square is a significant improvement.

Some screenshots from the new GMA studio:

I'm not mad with the WISH package... It's still waaaay better than their previous outdated package
-
I don't think it's particularly new. They're just really ramping it up.

And the WISH-2018 package. Off-the-shelf.

So with GMA moving, is it correct ABC7 will have shows produced from 7 Hudson Square from 4am until 7pm (besides for the hour General Hospital at 3pm)?

Watched it on Hulu...call me old-school, but your news reporters shouldn't be literally changing clothes to do fitness segments on cheap fitness junk. There used to be a line between sales and news, and there still is! Just saw it last week in Milwaukee on WTMJ where the news side kicked The Morning Blend off the set before a court verdict during a commercial break, just threw the set stools somewhere and started news coverage! I don't care if it's Saturday and 'low expectations' and it's 'only a half-hour', don't make reporting talent do informercial/secret sale segments!

This is the new reality in pretty much in every market.

Last week KSWB Fox 5 moved into the KUSI building, and... KUSI got new graphics and after nearly 30 years dropped Gari's The One and Only. Not sure what the new package is, other that it sounds like pretty much every other generic package these days. De emphasizing the Good Morning San Diego branding - no longer featured in the bug. No more AccuWeather. And fewer cities in the forecast highs/lows section - gone from it is Rancho Santa Fe, home to the McKinnons. Graphics are still skewed to an older audience - big type, but less 3D.

According to our UK counterparts on Pres Cafe, this picture of the studio was heavily sepia-toned.

KGTV San Diego just moved World News Tonight on weeknights to 5:30 p.m., ending a 22-year run (starting in 2003) of carrying WNT in the 6:30 timeslot. The 6:00 pm news is now an hour and thus gives KGTV two 90-minute local news blocks in the early evening. The first from 4:00-5:30 and another from 6:00-7:30 p.m. It also ends an era in San Diego as, at one point, all three network newscasts aired in different timeslots with KNSD's at 5:30, KFMB's at 6:00, and KGTV's at 6:30. That changed when KFMB moved theirs a few years back to 5:30 (more likely did so after TEGNA started owning them), and now KGTV just did the same for theirs.

I'm really disgusted with how biased KTLA has become. They have always been biased towards the police, they employ many retired officers, but the last week or so of coverage has been like watching pro police propaganda. The way anchors and reporters keep injecting pro-police commentary while ignoring and defending anything negative that the police have been doing during these protests is just astounding. I don't expect opinions when I watch KTLA, I know they aren't going to express left wing views I agree with, but I feel like i'm watching FOX News with the MAGA opinions the anchors keep expressing.

45min well spent. Former KNBC Orange County Bureau Chief Vikki Vargas speaks about her time at the station and how the industry has changed.

I was wondering the same thing, as most (if not all besides Gulf Coast News) have updated their opens... Which is odd
-
the domain will most likely be cbsnews.com/atlanta or cbsnews.com/georgia depending on final branding

Here is the remake of the close. Nice alternative, hits a lot of the sentimental tone of the original that remakes often miss, at least for the first 3/4ths of it. When you get to the lead up to the close where the original had prominent strings and a crescendo into a horn floursh this version feels a little thin, almost like a mixdown that deleted those tracks. Feedback on the Youtube comments is pretty positive. Hope they keep the original open and close on Fridays or something like that. The opens/bumpers in the demo are a little generic sounding to me, not as distinct with the signatures as the originals or this remake of the close. I suppose mgmt wanted some updates and as far as that goes could have been a lot worse. But hope there are some more distinctly melodic cuts that get used.

It was mainly the second hour
-
Shifting to content for a moment, the second hour of Saturday GMA was almost entirely an infomercial. It could be for any number of reasons especially with TSS production mostly stripped but I just don’t like that.
-
I sincerely doubt Today leaves 1A. They have a long lease. Plus it’s something to advertise about.
