Cool first name.

Goes to her Hawaiian roots. She was also Miss Hawaii 

Misread thinking a anchor was going to CBSLA. It’s the radio station instead since SF shares the call letters

Aloha Taylor posted on Facebook that she is retiring from KSWB. Her last day will be Thursday. You can catch her on 1, 4 and 6pm on KSWB.

She started at KGMB, worked her way to the mainland to KFMB, moved to WCCO for a year, back to San Diego at XETV and KSWB.

From reading the comments and post, not only is john soderman gone after over 20 years there but Steve Bosh and Sasha Foo are also out after many years there. Only old timers left at KUSI seem to be Weatherman Dave Scott, Longtime Sports Anchor and Current Morning Co-Anchor Paul Rudy, Reporter Ed Lenderman and Anchor/Reporter Dan Plante. Gotta Wonder how much longer for them at KUSI

Sandra leaving was the ice breaker and John speaking out opened a lot of eyes along with multiple shots fired.

it’s been a while since I checked on my hometown market. It’s sad in the direction KUSI is going. A few weeks ago they had Mark Mathis clowning about the governors restrictions calling him King Newsom. 
 

I understand most of the staff at KUSI is old and trying to be the “cool parent” in the mornings but that was beyond out of bounds. 

Interesting read about the toxic workplace at KUSI.

Could be health and or personal issues. We just won’t know due to HIPPA privacy. 
 

we’re dealing with the same issue up here in the Bay at KPIX. Veronica De La Cruz has been off the air since the pandemic started in March, then she came back in July and was last seen in August. She’s an avid tweeter and Instagram poster.

She hasn’t posted anything on Instagram since she went MIA and off the grid. However, she did tweet about Ruth Badger Ginsberg’s passing. 
 

KPIX did air a promo with all the anchors and reporters for Election night and her photo was up there. Hopefully she will return. *crosses fingers*

Legendary Anchorman Jack White of KGTV has passed away. He’s been a staple to San Diego even after his retirement back in 2002

Right they’re still on the last weather graphics. And that logo uses the new font and everything. 

Here’s a better look.......

The 6 seems so clean without the searchlights. However, I’m getting WTVJ vibes off that 6 instead of WBRC and XETV’s 6 instead. 

The music sounds like a tool kit add on since it still has the 6 tone signature logo in the theme.

Haven’t seen the open yet but looks like they went blue in the mornings and dropped the yellow in the lower thirds and tweaked the Good Day LA bug

Obviously she should’ve went to the professional and contacted a certain LA anchor for some advice when she was dating the Mayor of Los Angeles back in the day.....

I don't know, I'll have to see tomorrow. I don't really like Justina or Liberty doing weather... They are awkward at it. Aloha is doing midday.

I agree and Liberty is too into herself especially on Instagram. Don’t live for likes

Over at KSWB, seems like Brad Wills is the permanent late evening weather anchor for 6, 7, 10 & 11. I saw Justina Myers, who previously had been doing it (poorly I might add) was back to reporting. I'm not sure if there is a replacement for him in the morning as hardly anyone's bios say what shows they are on.

So is Chrissy taking all mornings shows with Aloha mid shifts and Brad in the evenings?

Liberty and Justina seemed to be the hybrids and fill ins.

Starting September 14, KRON 4 is launching an hour newscast at 3pm.

It looks like they want to compete with KGO’s 3pm 30 minute Interactive Newscast before World News Tonight where viewers connect thru Facebook Live called “Getting Answers,”  discussing topics like a Coronavirus, Wildfires, Education, Unemployment, etc.
 

Its not a normal newscast like KABC does at 3pm so no weather and sports. Strictly interviews and Answers.

This is a big jump for KRON since they are finally adding more newscasts. Hopefully a 1pm Newscast would be nice down the road since their sister Nexstar stations KTLA and KSWB have a 1pm show.

The few times I've watched CBSN (mostly back when the 10pm show on KBCW was still a thing), the slight misalignment between the bug and lower-third bar drives me crazy. Can't believe no one has fixed this yet.

 

 

THIS! I thought I was the only one.

Okay... That's sweet of her. Very charitable.

the best part is that she saw and recognized mother who sent in a request with the photo of her and her son at the bus stop while she was on her jog around the neighborhood.

Man, I wish these pins could be sold online. I would definitely rock one when I go out on the town.

Dion Lim had to get permission from KGO management to give one to an ABC7 fan who had a medical condition. 

KPIX turned on the Bold on their lower thirds. Not sure if it’s an upgrade and prepping for the new graphics.

“Zoo Funding” was the before look.

So apparently Univision in San Diego has a new package... I hate to say it, but it looks nicer than the Scripps package and uses a lot of the same colors.

 

 

That’s an updated Univision Package. KDTV uses this already. I’m surprised KBNT got it so late.
