You have to wonder about the future of the late night talkers, especially with election season around the corner.

Ryan Seacrest is Pat Sajak's successor.

The classic LOT8s is back (sort of)…but you’ll have to get up very early to see it.

BS Arizona wants to end things with the Diamondbacks.

Unfortunately, there were no changes to Good Day on KMAX. They just moved the bug to the left side of the screen.

 

Update:

The L3 replaces the right half of the Eyemark on the far right with an uppercase G.

NBC Sports Washington is rebranding to Monumental Sports Network. Rachel Nichols will be part of the talent lineup.

NBC debuted some refreshed SR L3s this morning. The bug is now more closely aligned to MSNBC.

Per tsherck on RadioDiscussions, apparently 48 Hours is entering syndication because it is replacing Rachael Ray on WANE at 3am in Fort Wayne. 

That sounds tailor-made for the CBS independent stations. Won't be surprised if KTXA and WSBK air it at 9am, considering both air Forensic Justice and Scene of the Crime at 8am.

Blowing the dust off this thread…

WFLD/WPWR GM Dennis Welsh is retiring.

I assume this is the ticker that will be used during GMA.

Super interesting how the open has the live time and temp baked into it. Look closely and you'll see it said 3:59 and 61°. It even has a glimpse of the forecast. That has to be a first.

It’s very similar to how Sinclair stations integrate the date into the open.

I noticed that WHDH is covering Trump's arraignment in Miami. Anyone know if it's a straight simulcast of WSVN?

 

Nope. It’s their own coverage.

Sheesh didn’t realize it was that far back. KPIX only got the O&O  Desk and Podium in February 2020 during Super Bowl

KCBS was the first to get it in 2016.

Big changes coming to Nightly.

Interesting.. they seem to update/get new sets more than any other station in NYC.. how long have they been on their current one? 

Since 2017. The CBS O&O set began rolling out in 2016.

It’s about to get ugly.

Licht is officially out.

Baillie Burmaster from WOIO is the new sports director.

LIV and the PGA Tour are merging.

Alex Faust tweeted that he was released as the LA Kings’ pxp announcer, and that the team is looking for a new rightsholder for the 2023-24 season.

WIS is adding a 7:30pm newscast in September, replacing Entertainment Tonight. Gray’s Investigate TV+ and a new lifestyle program, Soda City Living, replaces an hour of Hot Bench at 11am. Gray’s Local News Live replaces Kelly Clarkson at 2pm.

KTTC has joined the GrayONE party.

International has a copy-paste of the new look. Nothing to differentiate it from Domestic.

The dumping of The CW, IMO, may be why KMAX may be holding off on any graphics changes to Good Day for now.
