Not at all. ABC7 and WGN still have shows Feder had the wrap-up of all 3 stations' line-ups. As for Janet and Mark, good for them. I can't stand Rodrigues and Hall, though, so I'll stick with 7 for the live show, and DVR 5.

Temporary. They vacated the main set sometime after November sweeps, and with tonights upload, basically confirmed that News Series 2000, new anchor assignments, and the KABC-style set debuted after Christmas, but likely right on January 2nd, 1984.

Fallon & Meyers are wrapped til the new year, so immediate policy won't mean anything for them. Hell, they might be back home by the time their shows return.

That's the desk that WNN/ATM started using Thanksgiving week.

Ugh, you'd think they'd learned from Look N. If the bug goes away, it's safe to assume that that the blue/red will remain, hanging off the lower third, like a tumor.

Also of note, in the station's press release, Mary Kay will be exclusively on the 4, with Albert taking the 5, as well. I still don't expect her to stay, whenever her contract is up.

ROD Wood also passed away.

And this post seems to confirm her position, as well.

Seven's Greetings to you & yours. (1972)

''Chicago Today' is expanding to 5 days a week. It keeps its 11:30am slot on Friday, but will only be a 15-minute program at 11:45 Monday thru Thursday. https://www.nbcchicago.com/entertainment/chicago-today/nbc-5-lifestyle-show-chicago-today-goes-5-days-a-week/2700919/

A couple notes. This is within the first month or so of News Series 2000 Plus' two decade run on WLS, though the station's top-to-bottom refresh was almost a year-long process. Early 1992: in-show graphics and lower thirds Fall 1992: WPVI-style opens and new theme, plus the move to the temporary set Jan/Feb 1993: New set and a few anchor changes Looks familiar, but this is a temporary set. The late 80's model was reconstructed elsewhere, while the new one for 1993 was being built. The easy was to tell is the wide branded panel behind the 2 anchors. The background on the hard set was narrower, so they could pull up the curtain to expose a green screen for reporter tosses. Also, the entire run of that set, from 1987 to 1992, featured only circle 7's on the walls. The placement of ''Eyewitness News' was a preview of what would be on the new set, just in the old model's dark blue, and not the much lighter shade of the new.

With all due respect to her, as the alleged victim, and you, the poster here, could you provide evidence of this claim?

This listing is for KABC, not WABC. That said, I saw producer listing for WLS Chicago, hiring for streaming-only newscasts, so it appears that ABC has something brewing.

You'd think that Lauren would play into succession plans, if they intend on maintaining two weeknight sports anchors, but they have like 8 freaking people in the building (not including Dan) who anchor sports, in some capacity. Payton seems like the favorite, but again, GN Sports is a co-anchored program. That other seat is up for grabs.

It's pronounced like McKai/McKye.

Today was Julie Unruh's final newscast, and with the Arbery murder verdicts derailing the show, her tribute was moved to the very end of the noon hour, and the producers rightfully let the midday news run 4 minutes long to give a proper send-off. Ben Bradley delivered the retrospective, with cameos from Mark Suppelsa, ABC7's Paul Meincke, and Rod Blagojevich.

As a moderator, this thread will be locked if people can't stop repeating long-winded, tired stances. That goes for individuals on both sides of the argument. Failure to abide will result in timeouts. Understood?

He was definitely in front of a green screen or a printed background at the beginning, but if you jump to the 1:14:00-ish mark (post-press conference), you'll see that Dan is coming from the Sunday Morning set. SOMETHING kept him from being on the main Evening News set.

I live within a couple miles of this VPOD's location, and even I can't get their signal.

Much of those interviewees are people who are making the rounds of all the morning shows, both on broadcast and cable. In order to get those folks on your show in the 7:00 half hour, you sometimes have to conduct the interview at 6:50. Everyone does it, and it's been going on for decades.

She does have a big 20/20 special airing the night of the 19th, so she seems like a solid bet.

As big a story as this is, since many here thought he'd never retire, we'll keep all discussion on Jim's exit to its own thread.

Jim also posted a less-corporate statement to Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/Jim.Gardner.ActionNews/posts/431786264978281

World News Tonight spent like more than half of the last 20 months as the #1 show on all of television.
