He will be missed. Great story package...I forgot Judy Hsu (WLS) was at KFMB with Sandra Maas now at KUSI. They were such a great team. http://www.cbs8.com/story/38526065/matt-baylows-final-news-8-forecast-has-him-riding-off-into-the-sunset

And now, and now, and now, and now for the big, big, big, big, big, big F!

While looking for the infamous Marvin Zindler quote, I came across this "tribute" from competitor KPRC, nearly a decade after his passing....

If you think starting news at 4:00 p.m. is early, then try starting at 3:00 p.m. WBBH is the next station to do it. (I would use my Twitter but the account is locked out at the moment). https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1152328311576072

Quality is right where it should be.

Johnny dollar has a link from mediabistro about MSNBC hiring a executive producer for a new weekend morning show. Good bye Dara Brown and Alex Witt early morning shifts before AM JOY.

Fired/not renewed, but yes. End of February sweeps, '03. It wasn't really the most solid arrangement, but it had a little more meaning back then. Their last upstairs set was able to accommodate all 5 anchors at the end of the show, and they closed that way on most nights.

Rare commercial clips from WITN in 1997: Includes promos for weathercaster Steve Hawley at 3:11 and sports with Trey Jones at 12:46. They were using that same "Business Break" graphic with Network Music's "Bright Expectations" .

A newscast with 3 white men replacing the one minority anchor with a white woman could've ruffled some feathers. Chicago is one of the markets where that's a thing.

Even in a consistent third place, Good Morning Texas is still a moneymaker for Channel 8. They won't get rid of that for Kelly & Ryan.

I always wonder what was the reason for Cheryl to be the “contributing 10 pm anchor.” Like what exactly did she do. Did she just read a story and that it

Can't wait to see how big the hashmark ratings will be.

Or if they’re playing the long game.
