Maybe it is being prevented. I was expecting a completely generic spot not one with added time and station graphics.

The font NBC is using is the font Sky uses. They’re using two completely separate scoreboards.

I’m betting the house that this was a mistake. It’s a volatile election year and common sense (and history) show that stations ADD newscasts rather than get rid of them during presidential election years. Was it a generic promo (not mentioning New York) from Ellen? Many stations still clear Ellen at 4pm and almost every one that cleared both aired Steve at 3pm.

No clue but David Culver was WRC’s Northern Virginia reporter, he left for a CNN job. Edit: Looks like Drews their reporter,

@AaronQ do you know if it was simulcast on Sky Sports News?

Oh I thought it was this where the large Eyewitness News and logo appears between the main video wall and the standup/demo area you pictured. Was that video wall updated as well?

What’s the blue thing to the left of the logo? Is that a screen as well. I recall when the studio launched it looked like there was a screen there.

Yeah no way they designed in intention of TEGNA. It’s a general industry trend now to but the assignment/newsdesk at the center of the room. It’s either in the middle or against the wall in the middle. It’s so Information can flow quickly.

Thanks, I think I was thinking of Fox when I wrote that post. I was talking about the monitors being replaced possibly due to screen burn in. @Eat News had posted that this was a problem with CNN when it launched, that many of their monitors had burnt in logos. I mentioned wasn’t there a network who had their logo move a little bit to prevent burn in? So @IceManNYR linked to an article about the old animating Fox News logo which is what I think I was thinking about, they animated it so there wouldn’t be screen burn in.

I heard that before. Didn’t CNN or another network institute something where the bug moves slowly around a few pixels to prevent burn in?

I don’t know. Black could just be from lack of content being played and but the panel could still be on. But I’ve only seen it a handful of times in pictures.

I believe the monitors were left on when newscasts weren’t airing so people could look in on the street. The fact that most of the time it displayed the same image probably caused significant burn in. Additionally 9 years with it being on most of the day they probably were getting towards the end of their useful life.

Reminds me of a logotype CBS used on air.

I imagine the AccuWeather branding is still there and they adjusted the shot.

Huh, earlier this summer he and several other entertainment reporters were upped to serve as entertainment reporters for the affiliate base. Also at one point his wikipedia page read like a press release.

A lot of stations around the early 2010s decided to add “breaking news anchors”. Here in Baltimore and it sounds like elsewhere it’s a glorified reporter that stays in the studio and is the primary fill in.

News 12 is exclusive to Altice subscribers. I don’t know if Altice operates in South Jersey - if they do they I don’t see them giving it to Comcast.

Slight screw up this morning. The show started with the normal Today wipe then the blue title slate for the recorded cold open remained on screen for seven seconds before they rolled the normal open with the anchors names.

Campbell is probably making a lot more money than she was earning at NBC or CNN. She’s the head of Global News Partnerships at Facebook.

I was somewhere locally with The AccuWeather Channel with their L bar - is the feed done locally or are there different feeds.

Odd because when Meredith Came along it was a major renovation. If I recall correctly there was a hole in the floor supposedly used for cooking segments that was closed off. And when she came they went full hd. I thought I saw her in one of the montages.

Who says TEGNA’s cheap they sent Mike Valerio and a photog to Tokyo to cover a possible maglev train between Baltimore and Washington. Unless of course Valerio was planning a vacation to Tokyo and he got them to cover a few nights in a hotel + a photog.

Stefan Holt is likely going to be off for paternity leave (not sure what the Comcast(NBCU policy is) because his wife gave birth to their second child last week.

But wouldn’t they also likely have the primary NewsOne feeds as sources as well?

At the time WABC may not have been feeding CNN or uplinking the feeds yet to ABC News One. We’re they taking a simulcast or just footage? ABC and CBS subscribe to CNN NewSource so they can take anything they want that isn’t embargoed - even if it’s a competitor station. Say KGO has footage from a car chase from KABC but KCBS has a better angle/PQ they can take that.
