Today is May 12th, 2026. Tonight is the 40th anniversary of the current NBC peacock logo. One of the most famous broadcasting logos that has ever existed all got started on NBC's 60th Anniversary Special. It has served television greatly since and has become NBC's most famous logo, as it still has staying power after 40 years as of today. For those who don't know, the six feathers represent (at the time of launch) different divisions NBC had. Yellow = NBC News Orange = NBC Sports Red = NBC Entertainment Violet = NBC Stations Blue = NBC Network Green = NBC Productions IMHO, its become my favorite logo in all of U.S. broadcasting, and I love, still to this day, how colorful and vivid the logo looks. Yes, it's had a few moderations and updates over the years, but to me, nothing beats the original. Happy 40th Anniversary to the current NBC peacock logo.

I already did. I do my best to keep up and find posts like these.

Alecia Reid has surfaced on the PIX11 Morning News. She was part of the big layoff at CBS2. She's got a page on their website. They're actually running a commercial for her anchoring the weekend news now.

WBNS mid '90s "SkyCam" promo:

KCWX Fredericksburg/San Antonio/Austin has become the first NON FOX O&O or affiliate to carry FOX Weather. Its located on KCWX 2.3 (replacing Main Street; old movies and TV shows), providing a first for San Antonio and a secondary home for Austin since its also there on KTBC 7.6.

Our best wishes are off to Sara Gore. She announced today during New York Live that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXw3dq-OIxz/?igsh=dHFjaHp2dmZiOXBh

Eh...Bill can still do this until he's 80 if he wanted to. I wouldn't be surprised if Disney let's him go for as long as he wants ala Marvin Zindler, Dave Ward, Bill Beutel, etc

Anderson Cooper is leaving 60 Minutes: USA Today

Did she make a mess or did she do precisely what she was hired to do? Perhaps she should have spiked the story earlier but regardless, she wasn’t hired for her skill set in shepherding the legacy of CBS News into the future. She was hired to be a hatchet person to that legacy. The degree to which we (the collective societal “we”) simply disregard and outright ignore what is happening around us as society falls is staggering to me. Perhaps it shouldn’t be. What has come out in the Epstein files alone would have brought down any other president. Now, it’s not even a blip. Setting aside the veracity of each individual claim, that preponderance of association and cloud of suspicion being utterly ignored by mainstream media is terrifying. Joe Biden slurred some words and the coverage was incessant. The current office holder rants incoherently, makes thinly veiled death threats against perceived enemies, wants to pull non-existent licenses from networks (and the president should actually know how thIs works, but I digress), is linked time and time again to perhaps the worst sexual predators in our lifetime — and the news outlets bring us the latest viral video, cute squirrel story, Taylor Swift gossip or what have you. Not a single one of the big three broadcast news operations is doing real journalism on a regular basis, and now the correspondent who did so has her story killed. Oh wait, I’m sorry, “postponed.” My time on this earth may not be all that much longer in the grand scheme of things. I look at the next generation in my extended family and fear for the world we’re leaving them.

Had.

Now the companies he's buying are as old as the jokes flying around on Comics Unleashed . What's AOL going for these days?

Definitely an improvement. The space below the bar has been there since the first few days of the launch. It looked like a mistake and I expected it to be fixed the next day. Now it's more similar to CNN's ticker, which doesn't touch the screen edges. I still think the bar wastes a lot of space. And I've never been a fan of the way the text is either aligned to the center or left, depending on whether the ugly promo box is there.

A CBS News Radio piece on Sunday Morning as its final day is ever that much closer. (btw, CBS News Radio's final day is May 22nd, one day after the last Late Show with Stephen Colbert).
