Breaking News

Hmm. I don't think that was the case. Ben Sherwood was eager to be like NBC to get some XTRA money. The Chew's ratings were better than Sara & Strahan.

Yes, there was an article in some publication where BNS management wanted Yolanda, but she was under contract with WSYX at the time. Kristyn was a horrible choice as Andrea's replacement. In some cases it always hard to find the right candidate when replacing someone who been there a long time. BNS whole contemporary branding/image is not them. It's the station with the old guard, but what they're not good at is the young demo where WSYX does well in. I read Mitch wasn't well liked in Phoenix, but did a good job at WTOL, but I guess that because of WTOL's #1 status during his time there.

Hmm. Yolanda Harris, I would say, but Pete I can't co-sign, However, Yolanda plays second fiddle at BNS where she was the mainstay at WSYX. I was told many told her (Yolanda) not to go over to BNS. It might be #1 but inside it, a mess and many are still wondering how long the Wolfe family going to keep the station in their hands. Yolanda was a band-aid to keep the machine pumping, but nothing last forever. Remember SYX was fighting with CMH for #2.

He made WSYX more aggressive in their news coverage, there were some spikes in #2 at WSYX but it wasn't across the board in all newscast. Jamie Justice the current ND she couldn't keep the momentum going... I think he couldn't do what he did at WSYX for WJLA. A different market and Sinclair was ready to cut that budget at WJLA and he resigned during Sweeps. So he has his work cut out at WSMV.

Which capacity could you see her in at FOX? Could you see her on Good Day Chicago? Now here my wishful hope. When Nexstar gets it hooks into WGN. That many from WGN will flock over to FOX32 to give them the much-needed jolt. Another question is why is CBS 2 (it seems just speculation) that CBS runs WBBM on a shoestring budget? They don't have the cache of talent that pops out.

Robert Feder said Insiders are saying she'll go to FOX32 and FTVLIVE.com just repeating what Robert said. Why not NBC5? No shade to Allison Rosati, but um...Who going to be next after her? I don't want to be that person...., but is she really a big deal in Chicago? We hear all about the ABC7 folks and here & there are CBS2 people. Of course, you have WGN and then FOX32 they do try. It just seems NBC5 people don't get the cache like ABC7.

Plus their anchor bench is tight.

Didn't they move John Snell & Nancy Parker to the morning news? Are they being ditched since the sale to Gray?

I heard that on Morning Joe this morning that he loves MSNBC graphics vs. FOX... I had to LMAO He in love with the Chryon.

Scott Reynolds says farewell from WAVE 3 News in Louisville back in December. Before Gray takes over the station. http://www.wave3.com/video/2018/12/21/scott-reynolds-says-farewell-wave-news/

From her twitter page, it looks like somewhere in the middle of December must of been her last time at 19. On WKYC youtube page in November of 2018 her and Tim White did a throwback.

It time to reboot Captain Kangaroo and just place it at 7am on CBS.

Not to sound like an ageist, he's 69 almost 70. I'm thinking he will be there (2) more years. Which will give him 40 yrs at BNS. However, despite the station being dominate it newscast is stale it not hip or nor it demos go to a younger demo. I think being with CBS also hurts them. SYX definitely does well in younger demos.

So True!

Jessica Kartalija is moving to KYW 3 from WJZ to become the evening anchor in Philly. https://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2018/10/22/this-is-not-goodbye-jessica-kartalija-headed-to-philadelphias-kyw/ Dave Chudowsky is now morning anchor at WKYC he comes from sports department. [MEDIA=instagram]BpHMKceF_zL[/MEDIA] In Las Vegas Bryan Scofield is gone from the station. Scripps making cuts apparently. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2018/10/22/bounced-in-sin-city

I think management at any station see the entertainment value he brings to the table. He's like the current President. He's a train wreck to watch, but the ratings are solid. That my take.

WAGA Special on Dec10, 1994 the following day WAGA becomes FOX https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agbCTHZl30c
