The mod team has established that we have too many of these catch-all threads, and it's not just a logo or correspondent change that's leading to its creation. This specific storyline with the show isn't likely going away anytime soon. It may evolve and eventually turn into a catch-all, but this feels important enough, at this time, to keep this as a single topic discussion.

@24994J Why the name change to the thread? Isn't “60 Minutes” a better catch all for any news related to the program, just like the evening and morning programs having similar threads?

Horrible state of affairs. Just 4 months in.

A forum topic to check up on former Cable News anchors who have decided to return via podcasting, YouTube, Substack, and other forms of new media platforms. Former Fox and CNN anchor Alisyn Camerota, and former Fox anchor Dave Briggs, have returned and will co-host a new Mediaite-backed podcast called "Sanity".

Yeesh. I made more than the high end of that at my last job, and I didn't have to appear on-camera.

I was wondering what on earth that "Remarkable Woman" special was on the CW Sunday night; it seemed so vague as to be a time-buy from some group you expect to carry a generic 'salute to gospel' or 'independent film showcase (of whatever they could get cheap)' that you see on Sundays on a station that doesn't have the NFL doubleheader and the home team is on the other station. It felt like some kind of bizarre Queen for a Day rehash. It also seems kind of insulting to anyone not in a Nexstar market, because the states without a station just came off as having very 'unexceptional women' (they drew 11 randomly from NewsNation but like...just spread them across each state. There's no reason outside Perry's ego that Alaska shouldn't have a 'remarkable woman'). Outside of sports and the good shows they bought, The CW is really no better than the 'i for infomercial' era of Ion at this point.

This is better lit than their Upper West Side studio, warmer lighting has really helped all of the shows that moved. The HD quality looks richer. The temporary set looked better IMO, I wish they switched it up more for the new permanent Live set. This is basically what ABC did with World News Tonight, re-create the same thing in a different space. The only set I would've liked to have seen rebuilt the same way was The View, as it looked really good before, but the new set is OK.

And evolving it is... What lead to Bill Owens' resignation seems to have come from, according to Semafor's reporting, Paramount owner Shari Redstone's watch on 60 Mins. She wanted to know upcoming stories they were reporting on with President Trump that sparked a chain of events that resulted in Owens' departure. However, Redstone's spokesperson denied any involvement she had.
