  1. Apparently KDKA is going to be yet another CBS owned and operated station that’s going to do away with its channel reference, joining KCBS, KPIX, and WWJ. Heard there’s a CBS News Pittsburgh logo with just the call letters “KDKA” to the left of it. Unsure how I feel about this. Yikes!!!
  2. KCAL/KCBS is an absolute disaster. I can’t bare to watch any of their newscasts. WWJ so far, is way better and CBS News Detroit just debuted 8 days ago. Obvious WWJ is somewhat modeling themselves after KDKA. Not surprising, since KDKA Pittsburgh is actually one of the better CBS O&Os.
  3. No offense but the complains, if you can call them that,, are just petty. Don’t care about the news stand. Just want great news and so far, WWJ is doing a great job. Delivery, graphics, and overall look are all top notch.
  4. WWJ is doing great so far.
  5. Article says WWJ is next and the others will be in the spring.
  6. Hearing January 23rd for WWJ. Waiting for confirmation.
  7. Very interested to see what KDKA does with the new graphics. I say they will also use the call letter box, since the station does indeed use “KDKA-TV/KDKA-TV News” as its branding. I don’t see WWJ using the call letters box at all. They will just call themselves “CBS Detroit/CBS News Detroit.” Could be wrong though. We’ll find out in less than a month.
  8. January for WWJ.
  9. https://www.nexttv.com/features/cbs-news-detroit-set-to-launch January launch date for WWJ is official!!!
  10. This issue with KCBS/KCAL is one hot mess.
  11. There’s a promo that says CBS News Detroit is coming in January. So there’s confirmation!!
  12. WWJ is going to be the second. Once CBS News Detroit debuts, will Detroit Now become CBS News Detroit Now, on CW50?
  13. Early January for WWJ.
  14. WWJ got rid of the CBS62 branding three months ago, in favor of ‘CBS Detroit.’ i think the CBS ‘name city’ branding is going to be across the board.
  15. Shaina Humphries (a new hire from WTXF Iin Philadelphia) is at the end of the promo. More than likely, she will be one of the lead anchors.
  16. https://www.The Other Site.com/2022/11/29/cbs-news-detroit-promos/ New promo for CBS News Detroit. Looks like 4-6:30 and 11 pm will be it, for now.
  17. It’s looking like January will be the launch.
  18. CBS News Detroit should have a launch date very soon. Maybe in a week or two. Word is, they are very close. The new set is either done or very close to being done.
  19. Figured!! This is obviously a corporate issue. CBS Detroit is also still hiring. Any other reason for the delay??
  20. to my understanding, the news set and newsroom are practically done or close to being done. I just think CBS is tying a lot of loose ends. I do think the actual debut will be in December, latest in January.
  21. CBS News Detroit, imo, is expected to debut in the next three or four weeks. With how the new hires are talking, this might be the case. I think the latest will be January.
  22. Heard different things about WWJ. Heard later this month, heard after the New Years. All I know that it’s soon. I’m assuming the set is practically done, as the pictures that are public are from last month. Just need an official date.
  23. I feel CBS News Detroit is being pushed to late November the earliest. There are rumors of set delays, which is why it’s taking so long. All I know is, they are close. Very, very close.
  24. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CkHCnTgDKV0/?igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY= Saw this earlier. Looks like CBS News Detroit is getting closer to its launch.
