WLNY will air Brooklyn Nets games as an overflow for when they coincide with Yankees games on YES.
-
Is the weekend morning news that important to them anymore? There does not seem to be much stability; no rush to replace Star Harvey, and much of the two hours is now cut to make room for Ben Around Town, or even Paid Programming/Infomercials.
-
It seems like they air the live newscast at its regular time on MY9, and then air a repeat on FOX5 after the sporting event has concluded. Last night, they aired the 10:00 news on MY9 and then repeated it with "previously recorded" on the screen after the Padres vs. Dodgers game. On Monday, the 5:00 and 6:00 newscasts are listed for MY9 due to the NLCS.

Does anyone know if PIX still has Air11? I have not seen it used for morning traffic or breaking news. According to Tom Kaminski's IG, it says, "former helicopter reporter for WCBS880 & @pix11news 1988-2024." When WCBS880 signed off, did that mean the end of Air11 too?
-
It was not mentioned, but due to last Saturday night's college football game, the News at 10 aired in full on MY9 instead. They have been utilizing MY9 a lot more than they have in the past.
-
The move may be quicker, according to the listings, this begins Monday, 8/26.

Beginning in September, it sounds like the 9am newscast (at least on air; perhaps it will survive on streaming) is being replaced by the hour long Drew Barrymore. https://www.nexttv.com/news/drew-barrymore-renewed-through-season-six-on-cbs-owned-stations
-
So the "News on MY9" is a repeat of the hour long 6 O'Clock News on FOX5, and even says "previously recorded" on the upper left corner of the screen with the correct time and temperature on the FOX5 bug.
-
Beginning next Monday, August 12, I notice two new programs on the schedule: Good Night New York - weeknights at 11pm on FOX5 The News on MY9 - weeknights at 8pm on MY9 Also, "The Noon," and the 6 O'Clock News expand to an hour each.
-
The news at 8 on WLNY appears to be a full, live hour of news.

Kendis Gibson has been announced as anchor of the PIX11 News at 4 and 5pm. https://tvnewscheck.com/journalism/article/kendis-gibson-joins-wpix-new-york-news/

WABC can move Kelly & Mark and The View to 7.2 Localish, but they do a terrible job at promoting that, so it is likely the average viewer may not find it. WCBS would move the network to WLNY. Even WNYW, has moved ratings grabber Sherri & Jennifer Hudson in their morning slots to MY9 in the past. Does WNBC even utilize COZI much as an overflow anymore? I'd be surprised if they did not show Today. It seems the HD feed is not carried anymore, at least on my system. Even with preseason football, they aired the repeated 8pm program overnight, and aired the two hour Dateline on COZI.

On Sunday at 1pm, ABC is nationally televising WNBA coverage beginning with the NY Liberty. But, WABC is televising the Puerto Rican Day parade beginning at 12-noon. During tonight's 6pm news, they advertised the game will be on WWOR MY9. Interesting choice that they would give it to a FOX owned station when normally they give Monday Night Football to WPIX.
-
You can surely make the case it should have been on their main channel, it did air on News12+ on cable.
-
According to the TV listings, CBS News New York will air on WLNY from 7-8am.
-
In times of breaking news or severe weather, as has occurred this week, they usually run the full hour. I'm not sure if that's permanent or not, but I guess time will tell!
-
WCBS has been very strong in times of breaking news and weather events. They did not hesitate to move UEFA to WLNY to take this afternoon's press conference. Lately, they have really been harnessing the power of their two broadcast outlets.
-
WABC was the only local station that did not cover the 7pm press conference where officials released photos of the "person of interest." Heck, even WNYW broke away from Extra. I guess they did not want to upset the seniors by cutting away from Jeopardy, and since they are so reluctant to use Localish 7.2, I guess people wouldn't have been smart enough to find it.
-
On my Optimum guide, it shows as a separate entity from 6:30 - 7:00, as PIX11 Evening News (stated above). WPIX has been using the 6:30 half hour lately for sports betting specials, baseball specials, and other programming than the syndicated programs that normally air. With baseball season approaching, I imagine they may use it as a "pregame" time slot, or another lead in to baseball.
-
For the past few nights this week, the "WLNY News at 9" has had an open. The anchors tell what stories are coming up, weather, and sports and then the open for "CBS2 News at 9." The WLNY 10/55 bug is used during the newscast. I just find it weird that they really just produce at 30 minute newscast, and repeat it at 9:30, but I guess there's not that much viewership. Couldn't they just move it to 10pm to compete?

New CBS New York website debuted today: https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/
-
WWOR is also airing the one hour weekday edition, FOX Weather Sunrise from 10-11am eastern, and airs America's Weather Weekend from 10am-12noon on Saturday.
-
WABC's coverage of breaking news has been lackluster lately. Even the police shooting, they broke away after Wheel of Fortune for less than a minute approaching the 8pm hour; NewsCopter 7 was never in the air that night. They seemed very short staffed that night, which is shocking for NYC where newsrooms should be prepared for breaking news. Even WNBC did break away from Dateline NBC for a few minutes to cover the mayor's remarks. WCBS and WNBC have had much better breaking news and weather coverage. As stupid as it may sound, I really think the hesitancy to utilize their alternate channels has to do with DVR recordings.
-
I think this began on Monday, however the News at 9 is now back to using the WCBS graphics/production style with the WLNY 10/55 bug instead of the CBSN New York look. It's still odd there is no time and temperature and just a black bar under the bug. The actual newscast is 30 minutes with a repeat from 9:30-10. The open is just the CBS eye, general open.

I guess it's a strange question, but with the way everyone on social media is asking, is Betty well loved/liked? Forgive me for saying, but I always found her dull for morning news and she did not compliment Dan very well, nor does she have a quick, wit type sense of humor during the lighter segments after 9am. If Dan is going to be the "face" of PIX11, he needs someone to better suit his personality. I would have liked to have seen Vanessa or Kirstin with him, but that's just me.
