So just have to be a bit gossipy here. If you look at Bianca’s latest post about the ones that who stayed Steve and Natasha are noticeably missing from it. This prompted me to do a deeper dive to find out that Bianca and Natasha don’t even follow each other. Obviously now Natasha doesn’t even have a coanchor filling in…. Makes you wonder what really went out #investigativejournalism

Teresa better get the spot this time

Based on looking at bios, it appears Duarte Geraldino and Briella Tomasetti are both also gone from the channel.

are they ever going to give Rosanna a new official co-anchor or at this point is it safe to assume it’s Dan Bowens?

Teresa really has earned it. I don’t think I have seen an anchor/reporter ever deserve a spot as much as she does. She’s such a strong anchor and makes Steve better as well

Lori Stokes will be leaving Fox 5 and the news industry according to her post as of September 30. Let the speculation begin, who takes over? Teresa Priolo or an outsider?

I don’t know if it’s fair to make that assessment of all of the teams. I agree about Steve. I think being paired with Lori and falling flat shows that he only attributed to Dari’s issues. I personally enjoy Rosanna and Bianca. Dan and Tashanea have only been together for a couple of weeks. Weather and Traffic wise on Good Day with Mike and Ines - they have been with the team for at least 15 years each. Nick has been on for years. Audrey as well. I think it’s a strong team. Reporter wise, they are younger - but even some young talent like Teresa Priolo, Robert Moses have over 10 years with the station.

Looks like Bianca is NOT staying on Good Day Wake Up according to her Instagram. I wonder who is going to get put on with Dan.

Lori Stokes will be out for an extended period of time as she spends her last days with her mother. Thoughts go out to Lori and her family. Mike Woods also announced this morning he will be out for 3 weeks due to back surgery. We’re down to three anchors - one for each regular show, Bianca, Rosanna and Steve. Lots of OT going.

Any bets on when there might be replacement anchors for Lori and Kerry? Any guesses on who? Lori has been night side for about 3 months and Kerry has been gone for a month. Just seems like a lot on Bianca to be doing every day from 4:30-10. And obviously just being short staffed for all in general.

They brought Steve Lacy in. Interesting. Also, seems like Nick and Mike (in Italy) are off. Audrey (and Reagan) have been holding it down. seems like they have a staff shortage and it’s showing.

It’ll be interesting to see what happens. Looks like Bianca will be holding things down this week since Rosanna’s father passed away. I still miss the days of Antwan and Teresa. They are two people still with the station that could have avoided this rotating anchor chair. If they keep it female/female, I almost wouldn’t be surprised to see Teresa back when she returns from maternity leave

Today is also Kerry Drew’s last day at the station. Teresa Priolo Posted a farewell message on her Instagram story.

Have there been any rumblings of Lori Stokes either leaving GDNY or moving to the 6 PM news cast. To my knowledge, there has been no one put in the 6PM slot, Teresa Priolo and Chris Welch seem to fill in the most. But, I do find it weird that Lori has filled in two or three times.

Fox 5 has officially joined the “weather from home” bandwagon. Nick was home last night and Mike is home this morning. I like what they have been doing with only having one anchor, I think it has been working out well. I do have an observation. Ernie hasn’t been on since the beginning of the pandemic. I can assume this is for personal protection due to age. But I need to mention this because it seems like she never works. Where is Dari? She hasn’t been on at all either. Ro and Lori/Bianca and Kerry have been taking turns. It seems like she never works

Greg Kelly is back on TV https://www.newsmax.com/t/newsmax/article/949614?section=newsfront&keywords=kelly-newsmax&year=2020&month=01&date=13&id=949614&oref=www.google.com

Any new rumblings on what may happen with Good Day Wake Up? Any chance of Teresa/Antwan reuniting? Kerry Drew/Robert Moses??? Just wondering if any "insiders" have any scoop! It's been a couple weeks, so I fee like conversations may start happening.

Im 100% here for that!

Has anyone else noticed that Liz Dahlem has been off for a while? She's been on mornings for about 3 years now. Briefly over the summer she moved to evenings. Went back to mornings, now she hasn't been on the air since August. I hope she's OK. Anyone know what's going on?

Does anyone know why the first half hour of last nights news at 10 wasn’t on? I watched until about 10:20 and they were playing the special - The Big Ideas from last year, 2017. I flipped back to 5 at 10:45 and Steve and Dari were on. Why the delay?

Having made it past 2 sweeps periods, or in general... I am curious does anyone know how Good Day’s ratings are doing? I really did not think that Lori and Rosanna would work... but I have actually grown to love them. On the other hand, I cannot stand Good Day Wake Up anymore. Teresa and Antwan brought some class to the show. I feel like Jenn, Suki, and Baruch make it like the mean girls clique in high school. Just not a fan. I’m really curious in the ratings!

Interesting note - Steve Lacy filled in at 6:00 for Ernie.... usually this is Teresa, Alison, Kerry or Christina. I actually don’t remember Steve filling in since he and Ernie swapped. When they do these bizarre subs, it always makes me think that changes are coming.... I wonder if they are seeing how Steve does with Ernie’s style, and maybe one of the others will take his spot at 5.

Teresa Priolo is pregnant! One great bit on news for her.... Really miss her on Good Day Wake Up!

Just out of curiosity, where do you see the ratings for the show? I know during Sweeps, ABC always comes out with the press release that they are number 1, but is there a place you can view ratings regularly?

Wrong, just wrong.... They make a big deal about promoting from within, when they hired Antwan and Teresa full time. Then not a year later dump them with no notice and no chance for them to say anything. Would be nice to have some mention of Teresa and Antwan, Fox 5. I loved them together and separately. Would love to know how Jen became such a prodigal daughter over there (she really has been from the minute she started) Team Antwan and Teresa here..... Really hope the best for them, they were great replacing the big shoes of Juliet and Ben. Wayyyy too many changes.
