  1. Does anyone ever notice that Brian Taff and Sharrie Williams add some extra comment after they get the toss back from a reporter on the street?  "Ooh, that looks like it was a scary situation".  "We''ll have to keep an eye out for that."  It's like they have to get the last word in and seem more involved with the story.  It bugs me.  Some other anchors will occasionally do it.  I don't notice Rick Williams, Sarah Bloomquist, or Jim Gardner doing it.  They usually just say "Thank you for that report", and move on.

    Wow, no on air goodbye?

    It was mentioned it at the end of the 6PM show.  They showed some clips of his stories over the years and his coworkers congratulating him in the newsroom.   There was cake and he got a hug from Jim Gardner.

    Was this in the first half hour or second? (Or both?) This could have been a staffing/covid or studio issue, OR perhaps they're thinking of adding CBSEN after the first half hour instead of replaying it. 

    Both.  10PM and 10:30PM.  I didn't see any mention on Ukee or Jessica's Twitter about it.

    I noticed her in the promo, too, alongside Llarisa Abreu, Lauren Casey, and Kate Bilo, all of whom are full-time meteorologists.

     

    Speaking of freelancers, has anyone seen former weekend morning meteorologist Matt Peterson on lately? He filled in a while ago, and when someone asked why (because he left in August), he said he was back part-time.

    I think I saw Matt on two weekends ago, Feb 12 + 13.

  5. Jim Gardner will be interviewed tomorrow (Sat 11/20/21) on 94.1 WIP Sports Radio by Glen Macnow and Ray Didinger.  It starts at 12 noon.

    Here's Glen's tweet: https://twitter.com/RealGlenMacnow/status/1461724175484301319

    If you can't get to a regular radio, you can listen online here: https://www.audacy.com/94wip/listen#schedule   If you miss it live, it'll be available later in the day to listen as a podcast.

    The promos here in NY for the gubernatorial debate with WABC and WPVI showed Jim Gardner hosting with Sade Baderinwa.. instead Bryan Taff was hosting. Was this a last minute change or did something happen? 

    Brian tweeted that he was asked to fill in.  He didn't give any other info.
