IceManNYR

The same trio are on today at 4pm.

Contessa has returned to Weekend Today In NY. Pat is off so Gus was on with her.

Katie Fehlinger from CBS Philly is subbing for John doing weather on WCBS and WLNY am shows.

I believe Vanessa went on maternity leave.

Noticed the WCBS anchor and reporter lower thirds they are now using @LastNameWCBSWLNY

The bug now has the Olympics rings.

WPIX who was not live when I checked in the AM hours is now live in the 12pm hour with Tamsen anchoring coverage of the MTA train derailment.

Checking at 2pm Scott has joined Tamsen and they are still live at 4pm.

WCBS moved the NFL Today to WLNY as they continue coverage of the MTA train derailment.

WABC brought in Diana and Bill to anchor coverage of the MTA train derailment.

They have been on since at least 10am.

WNBC has started broadcasting an ad that promotes News 4 NY and Telemundo NY News.

Weather & Heather is now a promo.

The font seems a bit to big and bold.

Again they have talent in different shirts and ties. How does this happen?

In the old and new talent opens Liz Cho seems to be the only anchor showing a bit of cleavage. All the others women are covered up.

If you remember in the old 6pm into there was a bit a bra showing that they had to digitally edit out after the promo had debuted.

Considering that WABC has added new animated transitions to its current graphics package in the last couple of weeks I was not expecting them to change the package.

I noticed they are using a new fast transition graphic with very annoying loud sound effects. Some of them are to fast for me and the sound effects are to loud and not needed.

The one at the start and 6 seconds almost sounds like the FOX News Alert sound effect.

Kinda sad if they knew before the interview that Jenna Jameson was not all there and still put her on the air.

Who is the new voice of the updated "The team to watch..." promos? He's not the regular promo voice or news intro voice.

WABC added a telestrator to their helicopter. Shannon called it Skywriter 7.

I've noticed something odd when Juliet Huddy is off. Anna Gilligan co-anchors 4:30am-5am then Kerry Drew co-anchors 5am-7am.

Keeping track of the baby boom at WCBS,

Carolina Bermudez & Lisa Kerney are on maternity leave.

Vanessa Murdock & Alex Denis announced they are pregnant.

WNBC has stopped using "Mike'd Up" for their Sunday sports show. The show is now called "Sports Final with Bruce Beck".

Who even uses 7online.com? I always use wabc.com

WABC is copying the other local channels with the social media and website under the bug.

It's very annoying and unnecessary.

The 11pm news preview is using the new graphics package.

Is there any type of ABC network rule that if network programming is preempted by local programming it can't be broadcast on the stations sub channels?

WCBS airs CBS network programming on WLNY. WNBC airs NBC network programming on 4.2.

WABC seems to never air network programming on 7.2 when WABC is preempting network programming.

This morning & noon WCBS has Steve Overmyer subbing for Chris with Andrea Grymes subbing for Mary.

Andrea Grymes was on with Cindy on the weekend am news.

Has WCBS named Andrea the full time co-anchor for weekend mornings?

Chris Wragge was on at WCBS this morning and is host of CBS US Open Tennis coverage.
