  1. That's the thing. 14 years ago we didn't have the social media platforms that we have now, the importance of public's perception and the tide is turning regarding sexual harassment accusations. If Laura's complaint gets picked up by the Daily News or any other newspaper, it will definitely force the hand of Rebecca Campbell to do something about Dave Davis and Camille Edwards. The viewers perception of having a pervert as General Manager and a racist News Director will make that happen. That or advertisers pulling ad dollars from ABC 7.

    It is on page 6 of the ny post

  2. Who is above dave davis? Cause i would can camille,

    Camille's events that made station look bad

    Firing Sarah wallace and possibly tampering in a case? (Someone explain it correctly please thats how i remember it)

     

    Death of lisa colagrossi

  3. Keith Jones is the new weekday anchor for NBC 6 News (WTVJ) at 4 pm and 5:30 pm, also lead sports anchor for the news at 11 and Sports Final. He is replacing Adam Kuperstein who now works at WNBC.

     

     

    I think he was at KDKA-TV in the morning slot here about a decade or so. He might have co-anchored with either Sonni Abatta or Heather Barnett at the time? The name and face seem familiar.

     

    Isnt miani keith married to ashley morrison who was married to the infamous rob morrison?

  4. For whatever reason, the article on Robert Van Winkle's retirement has been pulled, though it still shows up in Google News.

     

    Apparently his mother, who lives in Arizona, was diagnosed with a brain tumor in May, though he had planned to retire before that diagnosis.

     

    Allyson Rae returns to Waterman after a stint in DC to replace him. She will become the chief met in November, and Van Winkle will leave in March, depending on what goes on with his mom.

     

    Van Winkle has been with Waterman for 31 years, 17 in Charlottesville at WVIR and the last 14 at WBBH.

     

    Question is when will he be on air since allyson was in his 5-6-11 slot

  5. One thing I don't understand: Phil Schwarz did the weather for the 4:30am portion of the morning news while Tracy took over the 5-7am part today. Why?

     

    Maybe they are testing something out or maybe tracy had something at home that made her come in late

  6. What happen to the anchor she replaced? Did they not renew her contract?

    Basically and the ratings were good and then her male co anchor was later fired when he left for vacation

  7. I understand the way they felt. I know she was afraid but everyone was. If we were required to work and she just didn't show up, that's not fair to the other people.

    And besides how the hell do you replace a popular anchor for this one anf people were angry as hell about it

  8. I tuned into the 5pm broadcast this week and just missed an introduction to a woman who was apparently joining the team. She was at the desk with Diana and Sade. I'm guessing that she is a new reporter, but I haven't been able to find any info about it. Seemed unusual to have someone in studio at the desk for something like that. Any insight or details?

     

    I think her name is Danielle Leigh comes in from seattle king 5
