CeFan Kim, will be reporting for ABC News, while still doing some reporting for WABC.

6 foot rules still apply inside. Some are returning to sets, but not the full compliment. That will take more time once more people are vaccinated.

No I can see Nexstar branding local newscasts with the NewsNation name and city if they think it can draw viewers. I hope not, but I would not put it past them considering the investment for all 67,000 viewers.

WPIX starting one hour sports program starting 11PM Sunday - WPIX Sports Nation
I noticed the promo this past weekend. I suspect Nexstar is going to be pushing the Nation and News Nation branding on their stations going forward hoping (wrongly) it will get a few people to even notice NewsNation. Is NewsNation NY in the future?

There are markets where the main anchor team is Sunday though Thursday. When I lived in St. Louis, that is how KSDK operated. Felt odd.

Who knows? It also happened from 11-3 yesterday, plus at 5, as well as today at 5. Rana Novini has been substituting for over a year on various newscasts, so if it was permanent I would think it would have happened already.

Janice Huff and Matt Brickman are on the 11 PM newscast for storm coverage.
They have been on the air continuously since 11 am. Beginning with TINY they have had 2 meteorologists on continuously. Matt is the only one not used today so far, but I suspect he will be on later.

I can see News12 New York replacing all the local news12s. They barely cover any local news any more. Many stories that are local news arent being reported on News12 that are getting coverage on NYC broadcast stations.
Where do you live? I'm in NJ and News 12 NJ still is very NJ centric though more regional/national stories are mixed in. But its focus remains on NJ which is severely underserved by the O&Os, not to mention Fox being in violation with Channel 9. I do find News 12+ to be useless in in its current form. It is NY, especially LI, focused and that is a turn off. It's probably a single feed across the Altice territory so that is why it carried Cuomo even in NJ. Gov. Murphy's briefings are on the regular News 12 NJ channel.

With regards to WLWC, The CW got screwed so bad in Providence, didn't they?
Yes, they did. One of the two hotels I stay at when in Providence still carries whatever useless stuff is on 28. No CW. Begs the question, does DirecTV or Dish carry the CW for the Providence market?

It was just reflected on my YouTubeTV guide. Let's see if any changes could ever closely resemble to the gritty newscasts of yesteryear with certain elements intact.
Optimum too. Says The 6 O'Clock News. Still can't watch.

What I find interesting/concerning with WPIX is technically it is owned by Mission Broadcasting. However the not so well done website modification and the end of news bumper all say Nexstar. Talk about blatantly thumbing their nose at ownership regs. These sidecars are a scam and Pai's FCC just lets it happen.

Yeah, I wonder if its because the Olympics are happening this year.
yes, NBC O&Os include the Olympic Rings from January through the Olympics in Olympic years. They were part of the lower thirds last year until the Olympics were postponed. It does mean they will be included two years in a row assuming this year's proceed as planned.

Natalie has been as well. they have probably needed to reduce the number of folks in the studio because of the rise in infections.

Darlene and Michael anchored the 11 this morning
Adam is reporting from DC tonight. David and Natalie are covering the local stories at 5 from the studio. Probably will be like this for a few days.

The point is - a professional "journalist" should not express personal views. They should be kept persona'!
Since he was a member of the O&O family, I wonder how much vetting took place?????
Probably little if none.
The bar keeps getting lower!!!!!
Perhaps that is why he is not gong to anchor and someone else on this board believes he is actually freelancing as a per diem reporter.

It was in his tweet. No other info has been released .

They were at the smaller side desk this morning as has been in the past month or so. Perhaps they were doing some work there and couldn't use that corner.

You have to wonder, why he moved to NBC4 to then move back to NBC5. Did they feel that David would be a better fit?
Having worked with native Chicagoans previously, their love for their city is amazing and prefer it to NY. With a wife and now 2 kids, they may have felt it is a better quality of life, plus it may be the clearer path to being the head honcho on WMAQ whereas David had always been considered the heir apparent. Although Stefan's father and mother are here in NY, his in-laws are in Chicago.

He delivered his marks before late sports last night in the delayed 11 pm edition. He said he was looking forward returning to Chicago where he was born and lived, and the return to sister station WMAQ. He mentioned how exciting it was to first come to 30 Rock to work. He also mentioned that he would be back in the building on occasion as his kids grandddude works in the building. He also thanked Natalie in particular for the personal friendships and support as they have kids the same age - a toddler and infant and they will continue that over face time. Much more satisfying to the viewers than his barely mentioning it at the end of the 4 pm news.

Basically he just said thanks for the memories as he signed off the 4 pm news. Very low key and underwhelming. You have to wonder why?

Aside from the official ad reveal of the new anchor team (The first All-Catholic anchor team at WNBC) for this year's Hamptons International Film Festival Film Guide, Here's the other ads that the station created for the film guide (but with on-air talent only)
What do the religion of the anchors or any on staff personnel have to do with anything? It is their personal business. It has nothing to do with their qualifications, experience and viewer acceptance.

IMHO, it's not bad. I like it. Minimalist and classy. Genuine and warm. It fits both of them well.
It's consistent with most of their campaigns. Your description is clearly what they have been after for years.

On good authority, Stefan Holt's move back to WMAQ had nothing to do with NBC cost cutting,
it was the anchor's family's choice. Supposedly, New Rochelle didn't cut it for Stefan's wife, Morgan.
I don't think anyone was inferring Stefan Holt's move back to Chicago was budget driven. He's been pretty open on social media that it was a return the family wanted.
The comment on budget cuts at several NBC O&Os and local NBCSNs was in relation to WNBC not replacing Stacey Bell at 5, no announcement of a co-anchor when Adam takes over, nor any announcement if there will be one on weekends with Gilma. It probably comes down to if the viewers actually notice and care, not those that notice every detail of a broadcast. There are enough remote reports and investigative stories at 5 that it may not make a big deal to most viewers. Could that change? That's up to the execs at NBC.

Warner Media provides HBO Max for free to most subscribers to HBO across the country. It is not unique to AT&T Uverse or DirecTV customers. It's the model Paramount+, Peacock, Disntey+ etc should also follow. Cable/Sat customers aren't going away and are alway paying for content. If someone cuts the cord then yes, it is appropriate for them to pay.
