Today is his birthday, so I guess they chose to do it tonight.

It is kind of dumb to stick the new logo everywhere and then hold off on debuting it for WGN Sports. I don't see why they'd need to wait for hockey season to do that, tonight would have been fine! The website and app also doesn't have the new logo yet, surprisingly. I figured just changing the logo on there would have been one of the easier things, all that's needed is just a swap of images.

I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that she's had a billion co-anchors in the last 5+ years, ratings haven't gone up and she was getting wayyyyy to comfortable in that chair as if she were untouchable. She can be sad all she wants, everyone saw this coming from a mile away. Edit: oh and money. It all comes down to money. She probably was making too much of it, and nothing (ratings) to show for.

Just gotta say, I love how it starts out with that 1992-93ish ABC Sports close that I love so dearly. Is that Edd Kalehoff? I'm pretty damned sure it is... I would give a kidney for a clean listen of this, I really would.

This is what happens when Image News is in the hands of Stephen Arnold: (see from 0:06 to 0:36) And here's the proof: http://www.newsmusicnow.com/player.php?id=2915 Sounds great:)

I rarely ever post here... and the criticism of WTSP's new format is absolutely warranted. Your rude posts are totally unnecessary and just support the earlier replies about you being a miserable person.

It's "Old fashion solutions...to old fashion problems." Now how many stations have a few large print typewriters,ribbons , and 7-ply carbon ready for the next power outage? How many reporters know how to use landline??? Rob is correct that you have to provide your talent and crew with the basic requirements for a full show remote. Monitors with shades is kinda important..so is a proper IFB for situation. At KBEX we do remotes with Solo cups and alligator clips....but we also pay our employees with Scratchers. I sensed dual frustration with that email the anchors sent. I can understand what it's like to really NEED a few basic items only to be told there is no budget. "Field producer"? What the hell are them? I get real cynical sometimes, but I can feel the pain for these folks. My greatest respect to Rob or the other producers cranking out a nightly bunch of shows in this God forsaken biz...with no signs of management support. (have an exit strategy) Hang in there, and keep up the good work. I wish we had room for all of you here at KBEX.

WHTM in 1993:

Yes. We have a portable printer too, in case someone needs to print in the field.
