Why did 6ABC send a reporter down to Baltimore to report on the bridge collapse? It looked like they were just on the side of some random road. Won't there be enough coverage nationally?

She could also do some weekend evenings, filling in for Brittany. They had to have Adam or Cecily fill in on those shifts just a week or so ago. Chris has also pulled some doubles, doing morning and evening weekend.

Maybe she’s the one who wants to get out earlier for the weekend this time.
She tweeted that she had a family commitment as the reason for the shift in schedule.

Cecily Tynan worked the Friday noon news. I can't remember the last time (in recent history) she did that.

Coveted? I assume she’ll report during the week a few days too. Good for her!
It's a little tongue in cheek. I don't remember a reporter being hired to be a weekend morning reporter only.

Channel 6 just aired a comercial, and showing now on air, that they added a new radar in Lancaster County to fill the gap in the western part of the area left by radar sites in Mt. Holly, NJ & Dover, DE.
Did they get rid of their radar that was in Montgomery County for the longest time?
Adam Joseph has been talking about the new radar during the broadcasts. He also tweeted about a 3rd radar. I don't know if it replaced another radar.

I like Natasha. I just find it odd that her "on-air" day seems like it's stretched out. The station has sports anchors filling in for news anchors and regular news reporters doing sports. Having some anchors sitting in chairs at the desk, others standing awkwardly. The other stations in the city have many anchors/reporters that can do both well and can fill in on any newscast and don't have to use the same 5-6 anchors every day.

Looks like CBS3 will launch their 8pm newscast on Ch57 starting September 5
Will Natasha Brown be anchoring that newscast as well?
She only anchors 9AM, occasionally at noon, 4PM and fills in at 5PM a lot.

Sports Director Don Bell is co-anchoring on the early morning news today. Alicia Roberts anchored Sports Sunday night.

Why aren't Ducis and Cecily's names included in the 11PM intro? It's only "Action News with Rick Williams". Most of the other daily newscasts mention the full lineup.
-
I don't know if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but it looks like the Sat & Sun 10PM CBS/CW news is no longer on. It's been replaced with SEAL Team & Magnum, PI reruns.

The article also mentions that Renee Washington, who had previously announced that she was joining 6ABC as a sports reporter, now works for MSG network.

Justin Godynick is joining the NBC10 Weather team on June 7. He is originally from NJ.

Sorry. I stand corrected. I'd given up watching thinking she wasn't on. It now looks like her mother passed recently, going by her socials.

Fred Shropshire of WCNC in Charlotte, NC is joining WCAU as evening anchor; he starts June 26.
Shropshire...Shwell. I wonder who his co-anchor will be? I haven't seen Jackie London on the air in 3 weeks. Even FTVLive mentioned her absence.

I wonder if they're having a chair problem now?
The anchors are back at the main desk, but they're standing. Ukee's a foot taller than Jessica.
