Are there any other Tribune stations pulling this kind of stunt, or just them?

That's certainly different.

Anyone know why they're broadcasting from the newsroom this weekend and have their weather people outside? Probably a set refresh or something but have they said on air?

"Jerry, that was illegal!" God, I hope he never retires. Too bad Mark was off.

You could be forgiven if you thought this was a Canadian open. No channel numbers, just a title.

you know it's sad for WBBM when WGN beats them at 10pm.

1) This belongs in the 2000-present video thread. 2) "viewer confusion" with "ABC 28" branding, in which I don't understand why.

BUT...WWL remains undethroned in all other time slots.

Origninally posted in Out and About, but I thought it was worth mentioning in the TEGNA thread that WWL, while still the overall #1 in NOLA, lost to FOX 8 at 10pm for the first time since Jimmy Carter was the president:

WCBS has a new anchor/reporter: http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/5/27/vegas-anchor-headed-to-the-big-apple Presumably she will co-anchor weekend mornings and report during the week.

Yeah, Jedediah I really liked. Hopefully she'll be a frequent guest host next season, maybe filling in on the days that Paula takes off? Whoopi has nothing to bitch about. Who wouldn't want to get paid $2.5 million a year to work 4 hours a day, 4 days a week? And i'm sure it's driving her nuts that Paula is sticking around, LOL. I read a while back that Michelle's contract was structured in a way that she was only paid for the appearances that she made. I don't know if that is correct or not, but she did get the short-end of the stick. Candace has grown on me. I think she tries to stand up for herself/beliefs/convictions but tries to avoid too many conflicts/deep political discussions because she's probably trying to preserve her clean image. She's done well for herself and family, and i'm sure that she doesn't want to alienate her fans that do not share her same political views. Same can't be said about her nutty brother, but that's a whole nother story...

Michelle was funny--she was a nice addition. Raven did a great a job of filling that Debbie Matenopolous/Elizabeth Hasselbeck role as the lovable/grating dingbat. The weak link this season is Paula Faris. She's insincere and inauthentic.

After 38 years of having every newscast ranked #1 in New Orleans, WWL has finally been dethroned. FOX 8 beat them at 10PM during May sweeps. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/new-orleans-station-suffers-first-ratings-loss-in-almost-40-years/171317
