WABI’s new set is very interesting.

Nick’s been at WNYW since 1986, Mr. G has been working in the City since ‘81.

WNBC doesn't use the social bar at all, WNJU uses theirs.

Sure WTVD helped create the weather graphics, but she has to learn to how to do them by WABC’s standards. Plus there’s promos to film, talent shots, and schedule changes to make before she’s officially on air. Her Twitter handle has changed from BrittanyABC11 to @BrittanyBabc7.

NY1 is adding a live weekend version of "Morning on 1" this fall. https://corporate.charter.com/newsroom/spectrum-news-ny1-announces-weekday-and-weekend-anchor-lineups-and-fall-launch-of-live-weekend-news-programming

KGO in mornings are sitting close together while still separated in the evenings, WPVI is the having news anchors close together sit at the desk while weather and sports are standing at the side of desk.

The Telemundo version:

She's moving to the evening shift at 5 (WXIA) & 10pm (WATL), evening anchor Aisha Howard will take over mornings. https://www.11alive.com/video/news/local/morningrush/shiba-russell-says-good-bye-to-morning-rush-before-she-moves-to-evening-news/85-9f43d8dc-b27c-4ef9-a25c-c5cd33f156d0

I don't think it was too bad looking.

It's a reunion of the weekend team of '97.

And WDJT is the only one out of those 4 mentioned that hasn't changed their newscast title since they became a CBS station in '95. They have always been "CBS 58 News".

WPVI knockoff on SNL from 2019:

Here's a AccuWeather forecast that will be accurate for sure. Reporter Candace McCowan is due in August. https://twitter.com/ABC7NY/status/1380110744730107907?s=20

An update on this: Both WBRE/WYOU and WTNH have removed the restrictions and now you can view their newscasts without to login.

The 5 anchors/reporters who were laid off from NY1 last month now claim Charter Communications is refusing to nominate their work for the Emmy Awards and has filed a complaint with the New York City Commission on Human Rights. https://nypost.com/2021/02/09/ex-anchorwomen-claim-ny1-refuses-to-nominate-their-work-for-emmys/

In the ongoing NY1 lawsuit, a federal judge ruled "Mornings on 1" anchor Pat Kiernan does not disclose his salary to five veteran female reporters [Roma Torre (weekday afternoon anchor), Kristen Shaughnessy (weekend morning anchor), Jeanine Ramirez (reporter and Sunday evening anchor), Vivian Lee (weekend afternoon anchor)and Amanda Farinacci (reporter)] suing the network for age and gender discrimination. https://nypost.com/2020/12/23/pat-kiernan-doesnt-have-to-disclose-salary-to-anchors-suing-ny1/

Most of the time I see on NBCSN is Mecum Auctions. ESPNews hasn't been ESPNews since 2012. The glory years:

And to compete the cycle, WBBJ's former chief, Tom Meiners has taken a job to be closer to his family in North Carolina.

Now it's one thing to login if they are airing network and syndicated programming on the website (like the NBC O&O's sites) or a local cable news station but it's another if you need a login for a local OTA newscast. Ironically, DISH and Nexstar are having issues right now and if a deal isn't made by this Wednesday December 2nd, DISH viewers are out of luck.
