So I just tuned in, and here's the logo Also, I didn't realize Logan Byrnes was out in the evening there. Phil Blauer was moved over in his place.

So... I just got this email from YouTube TV regarding CW content saying it's available on KUSI and that the KFMB subchannel will no longer be available. I don't know if I missed something, bit I didn't realize this was happening.

This morning, Frank read a statement acknowledging the layoffs on air saying that it was limited as to what he could say and that KTLA is a family and they are hurting. No names were mentioned in the statement.

I'd say KTLA is probably a station that could be closer to this model. They already have a slew of non newscast shows (California cooking, Frank Buckley Interviews, Off the Clock, inside California politics, LA unscripted). A lot of the shows are currently weekend only with the exception of a few. They also produce Red Carpet shows for all the awards shows; they could definitely produce daily entertainment shows. They also produce telethons. KTLA is definitely a station that could pull it off.

I was surprised when he got that job at KTTV... Was lackluster here in San Diego.

ABC News needs MANY new things...

They did change up the background shot.

So far, the set doesn't look bad in action, although a different graphic for the monitor behind the desk for the two shot would be an upgrade. Haven't been able to get any screen grabs though.

Yup. Looking at the 4p now, no new graphics

While I'm happy for the desk, oh man the rest looks low budget... I'm holding out hope that those cut outs are temporary just for this ad...

After doing that, I've realized that there wasn't anything more to see... LMAO I also hope they keep the 360 degree desk. Maybe they get it updated to something similar to the KMSP set. Their set looks like the next evolution to the current KSWB set.

This is kind of off topic, but I tuned in to KUSI recently to just see how the set looks in action, and they barely even show the set. They are still using a very tight 2 shot at the anchor desk, so you never see the desk. There are no pans, no stand ups; and then the only other shot I saw being used was of the interview set. Not sure if it has anything to do with construction of KSWB's set, but I just found it really odd. But aside from that, their product is awful. I was watching the morning news and they need new anchors immediately. Paul Rudy is not anchor material at all. Not sure if Lauren would be better with someone else, but at the very least, Paul needs to be relegated back to just sports. They really need help on the KUSI side.

Long overdue!!!

This looks like a similar size and shape as KNSD's studio.

I'm watching KNBC right now and they mentioned they are committed to 24 hour coverage and they are borrowing reporters from across the country to help with coverage. Right now they have Dave Summers from KNSD reporting in Altadena.
