30 years since The Big Switch in Philadelphia
Bars-n-tone replied to J.W. Rodriguez's topic in Philadelphia News
Doubtful that KYW or WCAU still has archival video from the switch, and they wouldn't bother digging it up from Temple's Urban Archives. -
Every newscast that I’ve done that used a temp/temp bug, it was inserted in the control room.
-
KYW used to cover the time/temp above the bug on the 11PM repeat. Not so silly.
-
The missing time at 11PM makes for an easy, modification-free repeat in the middle of the night. The nights you see a time/temp, that show probably doesn't air again.

Everything will be going back to the original studios. I think it's a few months yet before everything is back to normal.

NHL and NBA coverage will have the new package as well. Phillies finishes out the season with the existing graphics. edit: Phillies got moved to the new package, due to some technical considerations. -

The RSNs get the updated graphics package in the fall. -
There was water damage to the building structure where 10's studio is. T62 goes to a temporary studio, 10 goes to T62's studio. 10's studio has to be demolished to repair the building. Huge infrastructure project.
-
The offers were for employees aged 57+ and a minimum of 10 years of full time service. Does he hit that criteria?
-
The was an active fire alarm in the building, and the staff had to evacuate.

These promos were actually shot in Philly about a month or so back. If you go realllly slow, you can see a little City Hall, Liberty 1 and the Comcast building in there. -

RSNs have dropped the ticker. It's inserted with promo graphics locally a few times a show to satisfy preexisting sponsorship buys. Otherwise, it's toast. -
newsfan6 and NYPhillynews: Spot on.

Completely untrue. I've had several on-air coworkers who have moved on from market 4 to lower markets. There are way more considerations to the job than that.
