Another hint that Bryan may have already left the station. The video announcing his debut as sports director has been taken down from WFMZ.com. Also Wendy Davis posted this photo as her cover photo on Facebook June 8 https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10154245313599513 Yesterday she updated it to this https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-0/s526x395/13567242_10154322831914513_3687391827770992701_n.jpg?oh=e2467d26a201fe29f00ca08cbeab3e2f&oe=57E9D703 Notice anyone cropped out?

The newsreader position is going to be gone. As much people trying to downplay, CBS This Morning really shaped the way Today and GMA is changing. Just two years ago, it was all about soft news but now everyone is focusing on hard news. I still think CBS is going to become a second place finisher in the near future.

The Storm Ranger promo featured the portions weather graphics where current information would appear..

Brian Williams on MSNBC this evening covering the Dallas protest shootings. At 1:00 EDT, he also anchored the NBC News Special Report cut-in on the NBC network. (Is this the first time he's been back on NBC in a professional capacity since his hiatus?)

Kristine also anchored CBS This Morning this week.

Odds on when Maurice officially leaves for the mothership? http://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/maurice-dubois-anchors-cbs-news-special-on-dallas-police-killings/298360

Monday Night Football for the Green Bay Packers are heading to WLUK FOX 11. If the Packers don't play in the Wild Card game this season, this would mark the first season in 63 years (since inception) that WBAY 2 has not carried at least one Packer Game in a season. http://fox11online.com/sports/packers-and-nfl/fox-11-to-air-hall-of-fame-game-packers-mnf-games

It's coming up with the new one for me. It kind of reminds me of Sinclair's and Gray's designs fused together. Overall, it's actually bland.

WJCL has a new web layout. Possible new look for Hearst stations ? http://www.wjcl.com/

Geez, for a market that size that's almost pitifully cheap. Nice to finally see WCHS with Tuesday1 though!

KSHB Creative Services Director was arrested on July 4th for domestic battery, but the show went on without him for a promo shoot they recently had. Unlikely KSHB will report it, but it's likely a new position will open up over there.. http://www.ftvlive.com/todays-news/2016/7/8/scripps-creative-services-director-busted-for-domestic-battery

From 1983, a low budget newscast from WCHS in Charleston, WV, with a bonus of ESPN's Speedweek in the clip.

No. He's been on for other special reports.

Hopefully tonight or Tomorrow morning.

I agree with you, I think people just want to be informed and tired of being pandered too and having their intelligence insulted. GMA and Today show has become too much of a circus show, then a news show. GMA/Today have been to centered on personalities/celebrities and less on making the news a priority. GMA/Today show have a myopic view of looking at the world,they are trapped in that Fifth Avenue/Beverley Hills mentality of all about their worlds and they don't reflect the rest of America. CBS This Morning speaks to it's national audience they don't give off an air of being elitist but making sure the audience stays informerd. I hope CBS This Morning finishes second place and eventually becomes first place.

It is due to the response of the rise of CBS This Morning which has 3 anchor people. CBS TM is the biggest dark horse and viewers are tuning more to CBS . Having seven people at one table is just cluster mess . People don't need weather people on the Today show anymore cause people can get their weather through their local stations and weather apps. They can also cut costs by getting rid of the weather person and turn to the resources of the Weather Channel and the affliate people. Instead of getting Al Roker and Dylan Dreyer to cover the weather. I always believe that Al and Dylan have glorified welfare jobs on the Today show. Once Natalie Morales moves on to her new job, I don't think we will see the newsreader anymore.

Here's a doozy from 1960: And, with the original audio removed, a KTVY/WKY (not sure of the year) open from the 70s. The open animation seems to have a little bit of influence from the 70s NFL on NBC open: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=KjY4RKMrsT8;t=235 There's also *another* open, from the late 70s with full sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=fkgBDwDm2AI;t=467
