Agreed that NBC didn't start it, or create the mess. But.... I can promise you that in an upper exec conference room at 30 rock these words were spoken on the Billy Bush matter... "Can we monetize this on our NBC platforms , or in any way capitalize on this matter?" When the answer was a clear "no", then the Bush execution papers were drawn.

Michael Strahan could replace Lauer... Would all of you just have a cow if that happens?

How the hell do you "burn out" an antenna? If your station is "burning out" antenna's...then you may want to get a new Chief Engineer. Frying an antenna is more like it....lightning, power surges...dead bodies hanging from the waveguide will do it. (picky, picky)

Are you kidding me? I got money, and a case of sea lion steaks on this whole fiasco. The Vegas over/ under has Larry Perret being name as Co-ND by the end of the week. Sacto is a good market for Joel...cuz when this format goes shitside he can just blame the Uber-KCRA for his failure. Consider it Joel's Pre-Nup. ...e dup pe dup dup.

New sets, new stations,new radars, new choppers, and storm buggys 4 all. Expect the money faucet to close up real soon....like Nov. the 9th. Yes, the Revolution starts on the 9th, but advertisers my be a bit slow on the up-take with new civil war ads. Shoes and electronics do well during civil wars.

Lester pretty much does what ever show he is told to do. Since Lester is such a pro he works well across all platforms. "Where do you need me?"....that's how Lester operates(for now) unlike the rest of the funky bunch.

Indians scalped the pioneers as shown in this Exclusive Nexstar Video

He was a fine man, and had many friends. He will be missed.

I know Cindy also. She is a nice person who has not committed any felonies. Cindy does not owe me any money, and I have never seen her drunk or shoot anybody. Cindy is a big supporter of the arts because she has many paintings on her fridge. I would vote for Cindy for President, but that mean lady and nasty man want to fight all day like my dad and Mom did back when I was a baby. I would let Cindy sit on my pets if I go on vacation, because she is an excellent pet sitter.

The TV station in Mayberry brands it "Weather or Knotts". (whaa whaa) Aunt Bee at the Manners Desk... And barber Floyd with the social media report.

I think every possible chroma key effect was tried between 1968 and 1971...and a lot of pot was smoked at the same time in control rooms around the world....

Is it really that hard to make a program that has all talent in the bin to make seamless and easily changeable talent opens? Without having to build a new one for each combination of names, and pics?

That sounds pretty cool. Now I want to see how it works out. Of course if you get a clip... Thanks RKO

What's the first thing you notice about these ads? MEN! Hard drinking burly, no-shit taking News MEN. Back then when, the politico's lied to them...they got whacked upside the head with an EV-635 mic. And those "news women" in those ads.... Well they were just a bunch of "women's libbers" and drunken floozies. Real News men! And they used Manuel typewriters.... And rotary phones that weighed 5 pounds... And they were "the most trusted" in the market... (try saying that shit now-days) And they smoked 8 packs a day...inside the newsroom. And film cameras with cranks...no batteries....batteries were for pussy's... And they wore gold blazers...with cool patches. And L.A. only had one area code(213) There were no cellphones....just 2-ways and "mobile phones" that cost 5 dollars per minute to use.... And the internet was only for pussy's.... Cuz real newsmen read their porno in a real magazine...purchased from a sleazy bookstore next to the bar. All while the women cooked...and the men had sex with the court clerks (also floozies) after hours. And the news was only a 1/2 hour long...twice a day...because real newsmen got FRIGGIN RESULTS in just 1/2 hour....twice a day.

Yes... You are correct in your guess...and the 500 other guesses you may have would also be correct. I will let you in on the secret if you promise NOT to tell. ...It's gonna be a real cool effect/ shot (they hope)...and judging from the picture I have zero clue what the end result will be....except they hope it looks cool. Or they just might be "removing" those ugly cars with a pre-production element/shot....or just making a funky looking transition box for a stand-up. This could also be a trick....a giant green 'black hole" that unsuspecting viewers get tossed into and spun into social media hell...only to be tossed out naked during a commercial break. It's anybodys guess, but if you find out let me know cuz I'm curious also.

I'm sure Billy and his agent don't care what division screwed him because Billy will walk with the full contract paid PLUS $$$$$$. Bush scored a much bigger paycheck then if they had just let him fail at the Today Show gig. Billy just needs to parlay the new and improved "bad boy rep" into a cable show ala "the Man Show"... Call me or tweet me Billy...we can get the Jiggly Girls out of retirement....I may be able to get Carolla on board.

Rosie should try out for The Apprentice...if the Donald comes back.

They also will try to cut as many full time jobs possible and move people to part time 24-30 hours per week....to ELIMINATE those benefits. Run!

Thunder truck crushes little weather lab. (grunt) Thunder Truck go now.

Because they hire a bunch of "forward thinkers" who are cost driven as opposed to ratings and content driven. So as stupid as it sounds, it's correct to assume they are willing to spend money...to lose money. Tinker with shit...and play around with free social media content while you figure out you have lost an entire generation of viewers to Facebook....that took you 30 years to cultivate. They are morons Rob.

No, no, no... I was referring to a nice freshly groomed Bush...the secret garden variety. Wait... Let me find a proper picture of a hot chick trimming her bush... For real???? You thought I was gonna "go there"?

NBC would be real smart to make sure Billy leaves real happy... Try explaining to a Judge or Jury why NBC sat on evidence of wrong doing for 11 years??? Worse is the FACT that NBC had the offending tape in their possession the entire time and never acted on it. A lawyers wet dream. It figures a lil' Bush would decide this election.

I'm sure none of the guys here have ever spoken "locker room " talk.... ever... never ever.....ever.....ever. not us guys. (excuse me while i go watch that scarlet video again shaky-shaky)

Meanwhile at WFAA we find the ND taking an aim at middle aged anchors..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sf6sErugyuY

Totally agree, The operation is very outdated and based on cable headends. Sure it's great to be hyper-local...but you need to fix a problem that will require some upfront money to fix. News 12 just needs operational re-structuring big time.
