Its a few things. The ABC's have always been better run operations. WCBS has been a shuffle of management in addition to talent. And yes, pay. WCBS starts GA reporters at around 150-170K. WABC 180K-200K.

Cool set. But the talent changes are god awful. These new anchors are unattractive dweebs!

Has Adrienne Bankert left NN? Or is she in the process? She hasnt posted on social since December. Not a good look. Usually means they are in separation talks, which is to be expected since she lost her show.

He was pretty bad as a news anchor. Not to mention, he just looked and sounded completely out of place, disengaged and unfriendly. As for the operation as a whole, what a failure so far. There a few bright spots, but they havent made a mark at all. No one in the market is paying attention to them.

So anyone know how the rebrand is doing? Any ratings bump? Viewer feedback?

How is this nut job conspiracy theorist still employed by sinclair and airing on WJLA? Does she not embarrass the folks at WJLA etc that are forced to air her? She seems looney’er than usual lately. And ever crazier than sinclair has allowed recently.

Eh. Lets see the ratings in a year. I dont doubt the new investment and money being spent is nice. But how many times has a station (including this one) gotten excited and said “its a new day!” “This time its gonna work”! Stations have time and time again rebranded, promising to focus on news that “matters” etc and it flops.

They all suck at this point. Crappy reporting from subpar reporters and anchor rejects. It was always basic and lower tier, but had well known long time faces, that provided some comfort.

Thats what contracts are for. You cant just quit. He violated it, and a judge will side with the station for damages. Or likely, they will reach a settlement for him to pay back moving expenses etc. If they didnt enforce the contract, no one would take them seriously.

CBS relaunching news operation at WWJ with streaming-first focus
newsman123 replied to Glimmer's topic in General TV
CBS is investing tens of MILLIONS in this news op launch. This isnt going to be one of those fake CW things. This is a legit news operation. Big anchors will be hired, a full staff of reporters etc. Its going to be digital first, and a news op of the future, with a focus on streaming. But they are making a big play. -
Im sure this is temporary until her contract is up. The station is too cheap for two mets.
-
These “retirements” are because they are making too much money. So no, they arent gonna go elsewhere, cause no one is paying old school money. Ken was probably making around 500K. They will bring in a replacement at 200-250.

TEGNA Broadcasting and Digital General Discussion

What an embarrassment. not to mention, that opening segment mocked the city, and made it seem like a shitty podunk town. -
How long until BE is taken off the desk and replaced with Rob Nelson maybe? We know a change is coming under Jen L.
