Scripps' graphics hub is in the same building as WFTS.

I've always wondered how it's decided which station gets stuff like this first and why others have to wait so much longer.

Here's some interview from many news outlets regarding preparation of Llamas role as a new anchor of NBC Nightly News. Variety: https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/tom-llamas-nbc-nightly-news-anchor-evening-news-battle-1236415217/ Deadline: https://deadline.com/2025/06/tom-llamas-nbc-nightly-news-plans-anchor-1236413346/ USA Today: https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/tv/2025/06/01/nbc-nightly-news-anchor-tom-llamas-interview/83947990007/ I expect someone from ABC may doing something similar for Llamas when he takes over the role as a anchor of NBCNN tomorrow, given that he was previously worked with Disney-owned network for almost 7 years.

It's good to see a sign of life from Scripps, especially over the last two years. Has the industry declined so far that I'm actually excited to see this package? So many of the group packages introduced over the past few years are well past their prime already, and groups like Gray haven't even finished yet....

This rebrand is on track to look good.

Generally agree with most of what you said, except for two things. I think CBS primetime is probably one of the stronger ones of the traditional broadcast networks. The second is that Pelley wasn’t that great either.

WNBC story about their now shared newsroom/studio space with WNJU.

Was thinking this myself. Journalism has a broad enough skill set where one can study adjacent subjects like English, law, or political science and get enter the field. I supoose that broad skill set is why the industry pays so low. Writing articles or conducting interviews are not considered specialized enough for high pay compared to medicine, law or skilled trade jobs. Furthermore, a lot of training for journalism happens on the job which deemphasizes the formal education necessity. Most colleges do not teach broadcast skills like teleprompter reading, voice modulation or even how to edit packages. They simply teach standards of journalism, writing structure and how to craft print/web stories. Journalism is also a field where a anything more than a masters degree, or attending a high status college aren't necessary. While the degree gets you in the door, skills like pitching stories, having robust contacts, and your on camera personality appearance and sound, is what carries you furthest.

Oh my bad but they could still move though. And quick observation a little of topic I feel like all Univision stations are all in office buildings. Not standalone buildings.

Yeah I’ll try to grab a screen image of it next time if I remember. It ends with Shirleen, Brittany, Sam and Heather standing in front on the old set. It preciously included Mike.

Have they? I’ve seen the one where they edited him out and it’s just Shirleen and the crew, and then there’s other ones “recapping” the show from the day, with the team and whoever is in that seat, usually Pedro

They’ve also been running the morning promos with Mike Marza edited out. I would have figured they had the AM succession plans all sorted by now.

WABC's uncertainty about its weekend morning anchor is creating some very unlikely and interesting pairings.

Their studios are not in Paterson. They are in Teaneck at the Glenpointe Corporate Center, not far from the GWB.

Something you don’t see too often (or ever?) - Liz Cho filling in with Toni Yates for this Sunday morning’s newscast.

Now thats some extreme pettiness there. I rate NY1 over News 12 anyways especially nowadays since News12 is barely a newschannel now. I feel for the Cablevision subbers...

Lowkey starting to think and I talked about this in a Reddit forum but I got my first tv job when I was in college and I dropped out. I’m starting to think you don’t need a degree for journalism or at least you don’t have to study it, some of the best journalist didn’t even study it they studied another genre than went into journalism. For example Tom Brokaw studied political science not journalism, I’m not saying going to school for journalism is important I’m not saying that but obviously people have back doored their way into TV News. Another example people have back doored there way into tv weather apparently you can get a metrology certificate (which is a degree without the Gen Eds) from Miss State and do the AMS exam and become a metrologist I’d didn’t know that I thought you had to get the 4 year degree. Even Al Roker didn’t go to school for metrology he majored in communications to be a journalist, he in a way back doored his way to weather. Again not saying j-school isn’t important that of course that’s traditional way but some journalist I’ve watched didn’t take that route.

Maybe WXTV will move to NYC from there Patterson, New Jersey studios.

IMHO: WNBC and WABC's new newsrooms HAVE STEPPED UP THEIR GAME. It makes WCBS, WNYW, WPIX, and WXTV's newsrooms appear inferior by comparison (I'm not sure I've seen the newsrooms of either NY1 or News 12). To me, WNBC and WABC's newsrooms look like the future of television news and where its heading today... adapting to everything, including streaming.

The old newsroom & the new newsroom at NBC4 & Telemundo47.

The Pacers won tonight and won the series in six. This means that the last-ever Inside the NBA episode (on TNT proper before its move to ESPN/ABC next season) is airing now.

With that, the last of the NBC/Telemundo building divides (in terms of main operations) has finally closed. NYC was the last market where the NBC (30 Rock) and Telemundo (Fort Lee, N.J.) stations were in separate places.

Warner-Chappell, which owns the rights to the original Hello package, composed this new series of themes, effectively Hello News v.2 (or Series 5, if you want to go by how Gari called their theme updates). Chris Majka composed a custom theme using the Hello signature that debuted last year, alongside selected cuts from Gari’s first three Hello series (the ones KWQC brought back in 2023 for their 75th anniversary).

Nice, it's Fox Weather Daylight! Do we know why they were not live on a weekday? Were they just airing pre-recorded weather programming from a few hours prior, or...?

Debuting tonight, WNJU's new studio
