An extensive behind-the-scenes look at WJZ-TV Baltimore's Eyewitness News from 1992:

I haven't seen that. The two here in Colorado don't have that. (9NEWS.COM & MY20DENVER.COM)

In hindsight, I suppose you’re right, nearly 10 years is a long run. And I didn’t say that presentation didn’t matter, just that it wasn’t the single most important aspect of a newscast. Still think they could’ve done a better job, but hey, it’s the best set in the market, so that’s fine. That said, I’m still not sure why some stations (KDVR, KNTV, WTKR, KXAN) are junking sets from 2016 (and in KDVR’s case, 2019!) when the money could be better spent elsewhere. EDIT: To WKRG/Nexstar’s credit, the old set isn’t going to waste. It’s being donated to the University of South Alabama.

Looks like they’ve dusted off the ol’ Action 16 moniker from the 70s-2000s for their new investigative reporting. I feel like it’s the first we’ve seen any WNEP branding onscreen without the big surrounding box and call letters for quite a while. Doesn’t look bad.

One, it wasn't MSNBC's decision. It was hers. Two, one day a week doesn't help your ratings on the other four which will tank. Consistency is all that works. Being on one day a week also will hurt her own ratings on Monday but she doesn't care. She just doesn't want to be responsible for what is going to occur to the Democrat Party in the midterms.
