Vanessa was subbing for John today.

You have a My9 reunion at FiOS1. Megyn Vega and Mike Gilliam are anchoring the evening newscasts.

If I'm correct Lisa still does weather 4am-6am.

Maybe Cindy and Andrea are going to be the weekend PM anchors and weekend mornings are going to be Diane and Cindy or Diane and someone else?

Cindy is still anchoring the evening weekend shifts solo. I wonder if Andrea moves to weekend evenings when Diane starts weekend mornings?

I noticed a new promo for Eyewitness News is using One Direction song "Story of My Life".

When was the last time any Eyewitness News promo used a pop song?

Due to CBS sports coverage at 12pm there was no 9am newscast last weekend and this weekend on Saturday.

What NBC does when there is an NBC Sports event at 12pm is makes The Today Show 1 hour and WNBC uses 8am for local news.

CBS keeps CBS This Morning: Saturday at two hours and moves up the children's programming to 9am.

Jill Nicolini: BREAKING NEWS! Please join me in welcoming Amy Rosenblum our new Executive Producer of "The Couch" @WLNYTV Yeahh!!

I guess Andrea is going back to reporting,

Diane Macedo ‏@dianermacedo 5h

Tomorrow will be my last day at FBN. Off to WCBS to anchor weekend mornings & report on weekdays. So grateful to both Fox and CBS.

Let me ask a follow up,

why is storm coverage necessary at 8am but not at 7am? WABC did the same thing for the most recent snow storms.

You could argue just as many people wanted information at 7am when GMA was on.

Why not just move GMA to their sub channel 7.2?

It was also not necessary to preempt GMA at 8am for an hour of storm coverage.

Does anyone know if the new voice of the WABC promos is a permanent change?

David is still doing the 6pm and 11pm weekend newscasts with no co-anchor.

The only other broadcast station in the NYC Market doing a live broadcast was NJTV.

Dari is back today.

Amy did the weather forecasts for all the weekend newscasts and I noticed she was on at 12pm today.

That explains why Jill has returned to being a co-host. Two weeks ago she went from being a co-host with Carolina and John to just doing traffic reports.

This AM every other NYC station had the temp at 8f though FOX5's temp said 11f even when Mike Woods was saying it was 8.

Rob Nelson said on Twitter he starts at WABC on the 8th and should be anchoring the following weekend.

Noticed that Kristina Behr is reporting for WPIX. If I'm correct she had been a traffic reporter for WPIX left for FiOS1 News.

She was back subbing for Julie doing traffic and has stayed on as a reporter. Guess she's freelance.

Noticed that Teresa Priolo did the 6pm newscast then Sharon Crowley was on at 10pm Saturday and Kerry Drew is on at 10pm Sunday.

 

It is amazing how much better Ernie Anastos is when Dari is out. He has excellent chemistry with Sharon Crowley (as well as Christina Park) and he actually seems to be enjoying himself. With Dari he is just subdued and forced.

 

Yeah Sharon and Ernie were on at 5pm and make a good team. They also had Sharon and Kerry subbing this week at 5pm.

Audrey Puente is also doing good subbing for Nick.

Lucy Yang has been a general assignment reporter with Eyewitness News since 1993.
