Action Newsroom

Oh okay. I misread that. Thank you.

So around Thanksgiving they'll reveal the new set? Thank Christ! It's been too long. Also on sweeps month too? Perfect timing. Wait. Wasn't their 40th anniversary last year?

Meh. Not great but not bad either. Just a fine middle-of-the-road.

And my response is also not doctored.

But...part of that break has O&Os and affiliates doing short updates and local commercials before GMA (along with Today and CTM) continue on. Breaks not including those feature short weather hits and coming up teasers. I honestly thought everyone knew this (even if/when the content changed with the times).

This I can answer. It's the part of the set that discuses topics related to social media. It's called the "Orange Room" in relation to it's logo--both are orange. It's purpose is to at least keep the show going; whether it interests a viewer or not is another story.

Terrorism (in some ways) may not be nonsense, but Boris certainly is. And then some.

OANN is on FiOS among the news channels, but I'm sure they'd have exactly that number of viewers on average anyway.

No prob, thanks.

Sign? No. Part of the actual plan from the start? Yes.

Bumping... We have a first look at the new set... [MEDIA=twitter]877737422976667648[/MEDIA] and...it's coming in FIVE DAYS.

I loved this last set. It's circular design and usable features worked so much to its advantage, and made it one of the best in my book. Even in a market where all of them were fantastic. ... (well, except WNYW, of course.) I know this new one'll look a bit like KCBS or WBZ, but that makes me even more excited.

The celebration was small and lowkey (as expected) but was still humbling and wonderful.

I watching the 4pm when they mentioned a special celebration of Jim Gardner's tenure as 6 & 11 anchor for tonight at 11. Shall be a must-watch.

[https://www.washingtonpost.com/busi...34b6d506b37_story.html?utm_term=.48d92ad94456] I know I shouldn't, but more than ever I'm more convinced that Sinclair has a plot to take over most of TV to turn it into state TV-lite. And more than ever, I'm cringing at it's success. I feel sorry for everyone at the Trib stations, TheRob most definitely included.

More like "Deadline: Good Original Title that Doesn't Sound Like an Entertainment Website". lol

I'm surprised it lasted this long, despite the fact it aired in small markets and that--even after all this time--I still barely know what it is. It still has no Wikipedia page, for corn's sake! (not that it needs one now.)

Apparently, the execs thought the youngsters needed a hip, hot, happening channel of hilar clips, smart pop culture news and OMG moments to tweet and snap about tomorrow. Thus this was born. It's probably as stupid as I made it to be in this post.

I made it to 45 seconds before stopping, and it already felt excruciating. Every time she pauses, it feels like 5 seconds have passed. She's definitely not the one. (...and not just IMO)

And you are...? Oh, right.

Nope. Not sad at all. If anything, it's something to rejoice over that it's 1000x much better than the last in every sense.

I would think so too. At first glance, I thought the article makes it sound like the station is changing it's name to "New York's Very Own" instead of it's slogan. IMO, naming the station and it's news brand that would be stupid and/or a mouthful.
