  1. Yeah, I don't quite get that. I'd just as rather get it from Elise or even John Marshall over Lonnie.
  2. Former Good Day New York (and News 12 LI) anchors Ron Corning and Jodi Applegate re-united last night. Applegate joined Corning, who is now the morning show anchor for Dallas ABC affiliate WFAA, as co-host for the channels New Years Eve show. https://twitter.com/jodiapplekay/status/418235933859655680
  3. It is amazing how much better Ernie Anastos is when Dari is out. He has excellent chemistry with Sharon Crowley (as well as Christina Park) and he actually seems to be enjoying himself. With Dari he is just subdued and forced.
  4. John Marshall is back at WCBS for a few months covering Vanessa.
  5. Dick Brennan and Alice Gainer are a fantastic team and did awesome filling in at 5,6, and 11 this week.
  6. I think they have bigger plans for Rob Nelson than weekend mornings.
  7. It's almost certain that David will replace Bill on the 6 & 11. Rob would maybe get the 4, however they could also have David do the 4, 6, and 11 like Jim Rosenfield does now in Philly. I would love for Diana to return to 11, but I doubt she wants to.
  8. WABC has Lee in tonight doing weather along with Jeff, Rob is in for Joe. Rob is really making a case to become a lead anchor at some point...if ABC News doesn't scoop him up first.
  9. Prayers to former Good Day New York entertainment anchor Julie Chang, diagnosed with a brain tumor. http://www.mediabistro.com/tvspy/kttv-anchor-julie-chang-has-a-brain-tumor_b109303
  10. Darn it, I only have the open from Wednesday February 11th, 1987! UGH. Sorry!
  11. They have re-done their social ticker so it's now above the FOX5 logo, fades in between Facebook, Twitter, myfoxNY.com links. Not as fast as the other stations, it's definitely better done than both WCBS and WABC.
  12. Probably filling the Jeff Pegues opening. He joins from CBS in Philly.
  13. WABC has a ways to go in social media and website-wise. WCBS and WNBC are way ahead.
  14. I agree WCBS' is small and too quick however that can be fixed and to looks more natural with the gfx package. WABC's looks cheap and the abc7 bug looks squeezed I'm between the upper and lower tickers. Poorly done.
  15. That bug is distracting and looks terrible on WCBS. WABC actually found a way to make their's even worse. Very unnecessary.
  16. WCBS is doing the same thing at 10pm.
  17. Haven't seen the new newsroom set up yet, but I hope it signals they will be getting a new studio soon.
  18. Good for Dick, after getting cut at WNYW he has landed on his feet in this market. And for Alice, her rapid ascent at WCBS is impressive, to say the least.
  19. Maurice DuBois subbed for Scott Pelley on the CBS Evening News tonight.
  20. The weekend version of FOX 5 News @ 10 is so much better than the weekday version. Christina Park and Audrey Puente are great. Even Antwan is becoming tolerable, he just needs to show a little more personality.
  21. I don't know it he's sans prompter or had too much wine with dinner, but Lonnie Quinn is all over the map (pun!) on WLNY right now. Kind of bizarre.
