  1. All the O&Os stayed local for most of the coverage, 24/7 which also lasted longer than national network coverage which eventually went back to regular programming. It was covered, appropriately, as a local story. If you did not have cable or satellite, then you didn't get coverage since the transmitters came down with the towers. Eventually temporary solutions were set up, and some TV stations made deals with radio outlets to simulcast the audio.
  2. John Hambrick co-anchored News4NewYork with Chuck Scarborough on WNBC in the early 80s. I believe when he left he was replace by Pat Harper, which was a great pairing.
  3. In Ansin's announcement that he will not fight NBC leaving anymore, it was announced News will be on WHDH at 9 pm and 10 pm. Smart of CBS to move the broadcast to 8 where there is no competition (for now). CBS does this in NY where news is on TV55 at 9 so they do not compete with the awful Fox5 and PIX11 10 pm newscasts. It also seems to indicate CW will stay on channel 56 rather than move to 7? That surpises me, or will it move to WSBK but begin at 9 rather than 8. I think this was tried in St. Louis with mixes results (though an hour earlier due to central time).
  4. She moved to Buffalo to be with her husband (Bills coach Anthony Lynn - she also followed him from the Browns to the Jets). Someone posted in another thread she announced on twitter she is doing weekends in NY for a bit, not indicating it is permanent. Sunday late news was co-hosted with Gus.
  5. I noticed as well. It does not look like she picked up a job in Buffalo after moving there to be with her husband (Anthony Lynn is a coach under Rex Ryan). She got tired of being in NYC weekends while living in Buffalo which is why she originally left. I suspect she is freelancing for now unless there has been a personal change in her life, or NBC threw a lot of money at her.
  6. It looks like fake puke. How awful.
  7. Even more if you go back in time, including Chuck Scarborough and Len Berman.
  8. Which News 12 is this? LI, NJ, BKN, BX etc?
