Not going to lie. I sat here waiting for images to load before I saw your note.

WJZ transitioned..... j/k it will be ages before they transition.

In terms of the old studio, Im all for fully utilizing a resouce but, why does CBS repeatedly use studio 57 for almost everything?

Studio just got upgrades to hold them til the network relocates, and new graphics might be coming.

Glad I wasn't the only one lol. KDKA uses WSI. They have The Weather Company logo on the backgroud of their weather computers...

Before he hit it big in Dallas, John McCaa was the weekend guy in Omaha.

What do you mean? The bulk of the team being in NY, or the show being in DC. Every studio CBS Broadcast Center is booked. The only place I think they could use to switch out sets would be using the CBS Sports Studio. They’ve used the studio before for a few of their town halls they did during sweeps. But the news division doesn’t have any other major studio space except for Studio 33 which I imagine is just a chroma key studio for 60 Minutes. Studio 45 which is half Inside Edition’s virtual set and half hard set for Sunday Morning which I don’t think they dare touching (aside from maybe painting and technological upgrades has it changed from the beginning). And Studio 57 is the bulk of their operations. There are also two studios converted into newsrooms - Studio 57 and Studio 47. The rest of the space is booked. 41 - The Mel Robins Show 42 - Last Week Tonight, Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, Desus & Mero 43 - CBS Sports 44 - CBS Sports Network 46 - WCBS/WLNY.

Good!!!! Here’s a few since their debut.

I’ve been told that the EP will likely be in DC but most of the crew will be back in NY.

They have been hiring for technical roles in DC, and there's always been a control room there, so it's safe to say at least a good chunk of the production is coming from DC.

I think the new studio looks really good. I’m thankfully they are back to using monitor OTS instead of graphics! I always felt the graphic ones were very cheap looking. I’m also glad they are moving around to use different parts of the studio and standing sometimes unlike WNT. I agree the graphics are trending more towards WNT now with the movement and such.

I think that was kind of the point, and I am honestly very excited!

Aesthetically, it's the nicest set they've had since...well, the last Washington set. I wish it didn't give such a CNN / FOX O&O feel, but that's sort of to be expected with the new EP coming from the Situation Room. I hope they find good use for those floor panels. Visually, it's the most polished look since the Couric era. They really could have put their money where their mouth is and led with politics tonight if that's the whole reason to set up shop there. A little disappointed it was weather instead.

So if the suspect was white, they reported the race? In recent years, the media have simply tried to treat people of different races using the same criteria. Unless you are giving out a detailed description of an on-the-run suspect, why does his or her race matter? What some people describe as "PC culture" is, in many cases, just a common-sense move toward equality. I suppose that's why some on the right get so annoyed by it. Again, until a causal link between their religion and their actions is established, their religion doesn't matter. For instance, if a Christian participates in a shooting at an abortion clinic, their religion is irrelevant UNLESS and UNTIL there is evidence that the suspect's religious views played a role in his actions. Sometimes it's best to treat those sites as a running joke. The moment the media outlets start shaping their coverage to get the approval of conservative sites (or any political sites, for that matter) is the moment they lose all credibility.

Just wait till the Scripps people meet those huge rats...and I mean the furry ones...NOT the union ones. *No disrespect to union furry's.
