Heads up, Raleigh now has three noon newscasts for ONE HOUR thanks to WNCN 17, the CBS affiliate (former NBC). They just did a strange thing to a Nexstar Media General, it expanded from 30-minutes to one full-hour. The Young and the Restless has been at 4pm in the Triangle since 1993 back when CBS was with WRAL 5.
But it’s not the only newscast change, but KMAX 31 in Sacramento is moving it’s 11pm newscast to sister station KOVE 13 to follow the hour-long 10:00 news, the only CBS O&O station to do so. KOVR hasn’t had an 11pm since 2005 after Sinclair bought the station to CBS. So the station will have an 11:00pm news 7 days a week, not just on weeknights.

It was nice to see the morning talk show format hosted by someone actually capable of making it enjoyable, watchable television. I've tried to like Megyn and I think I do like her as a person, but Megyn Kelly Today is unwatchable. If Savannah, or Hoda, or even Sheinelle Jones or Dylan Dreyer hosted a show with this format I could enjoy it. Based on the tweets it sounds like Hoda, Al, Carson and Kathie Lee will get a crack at it while Megyn's away. Can't wait. But I can wait for Megyn to get back...
Seriously, everybody is a disaster!!!! Nobody likes the team at the Today Show and I started boycotting NBC UNTIL they can remove weekend broadcasts as well as the team too you know. BTW, Hoda Kotb is not a right person to count as well as Carson, Al, Sheinelle and Dylan, but not Megyn and Savannah. NBC started off well but they went down BIG TIME!!!! So folks, CBS and ABC are choses to watch.

Hold your horses WMTW 8, is this the return of a 10pm news on CW Portland WPXT since they ended news agreement with WCSH. That was Maine’s first 10pm news BTW during its time with Fox and then The WB.
We could have a double whammy for primetime news.
The Westbrook studios will also mark the return for Channel 51 since it shutdown its news department. Let’s hope it will be a price.

I'm going to respectfully disagree. I think Savannah is one of the worst anchors in Today's history.
I agree she is a disaster since Megyn joined NBC last year. Savannah Guthrie needs to be at another network like ABC for example and then Megyn Kelly Today will be cancelled.

WPEC and WBBH have 3pm newscasts too, so looks like a third one (WPLG) is kinda strange because they have a 4pm newscast. Well see if that will attempt this kind os time slot in Miami
-
The release from ABC suggests the intention is to free up her schedule by removing her from regular anchoring duties. So, unless they do a 180, it seems unlikely that she'd end up with a host role for the third hour.
Maybe. But serving as White House Correspondent is a pretty high-profile gig, especially with the current administration. And she is already a regular fill-in on weekday GMA. Giving those things up to be anchor of weekend GMA might amount to a demotion, unless she prefers it.
My bet is to bring someone from the Today Show who could replace Paula

Weekend Today and Today show has not been the same since he got promoted.He made morning television watchable and less self centered. You could tell his female co-anchors loved being around him. Weekend Today had their best renaissance when Lester was the host.
In some ways I feel that NBC does not deserve him. I love seeing Lester on both evening and morning news also he did cable news. That triple threat ability to do any form of hosting and news, is so rare.
Lester was far ahead of everybody on the Today show however, politics and politics. There is a reason why all the good anchors like Campbell, Soledad O' Brien etc all left NBC. However, NBC management must've fought very hard to keep Lester from leaving they knew they had a gem.
Nightly News has tanked down so bad since he took over to weeknights. Could this be the end for Lester? Or the viewers trusting him amid steady ratings?

2018 was an awful year at NBC with Hoda, Megyn, and everybody else at Studio 1A (featuring Carson). Why, why hasn’t the network doing the right thing to push these personalities out the door? I feel like their morning viewers seem to lost it all and evenings too. Boy do I miss Natalie and Willie and TODAY 7 days a week, NOT Sunday TODAY it is boring. I hope this works; if not...back to “real news network” CBS This Morning or the #1 rated GMA.

Network morning television is on the decline overall in local and morning shows.
To me, Today show went downhill a long time ago when they ousted Ann Curry. I don't pay much attention to the Today show anymore. I don't get the big deal with Willie Geist, he has no personality and not even a real newsman. His Sunday show is very boring.
Weekend Today is non existent, I am not a fan of Craig Melvin, his voice is a turn off and he is not relatable.
OMG we're all right, Willie Geist's Sunday morning show is boring and Craig Melvin wasn't relatable to the viewers. I don't watch the Today Show too, because some two females on weekdays along with "evil Megyn" received bad ratings. So bad for what NBC News did over 6 years.

Apparently there is speculation that NBC might change Megyn Kelly's time slot. They should've done this the first day of her new show of putting in the 10AM hour.
https://pagesix.com/2018/06/11/nbc-mulls-moving-megyn-kelly-today-to-a-new-time-slot/
I just don't think it will happen, my prediction is for NBC to get rid of Hoda and Megyn because every single NBC station has bad ratings in daytime and primetime. And I think it's about time for Savannah to look for a new anchor, but NOT Carson nor Craig, everything went downhill since April of 2016. Please HELP ME I'M CONTINUING TO BOYCOTT NBC NEWS until they can bring Natalie back to the Big Apple and the original weekend news on TODAY with two hours on Saturday and 60 minutes on Sunday with the weekend crew. What do you think??? It's my statement on what's up in the future.

Looks like there’s a lot of drama over at Megyn Kelly Today.
This needs to be cancelled and Megyn should be gone from NBC

One of the best in Alabama, ruling mornings and middays for a long time. RIP.
Bill Bolen made WBRC 6 as his home everyday and made the station #1.

NBC posted the updated open so one of us doesn't have to.
Wrong it's wrong,

Such a double tragedy for newscasters who died outside tv. My prayers are with her friends, family and colleagues to Amanda.

The TODAY Show has become a Fake Morning News Network bad bad ratings. Get rid of Megyn and Carson. Good Morning America is winning the ratings war.

Here's my Today Show people they should get rid of:
•Megyn Kelly (worst ratings)
•Matt Lauer (leaving soon)
•Carson Daly (say goodbye to Orange Room)
•Al Roker (no reason)
Thanks to Megyn Kelly's arrival on NBC, she has caused Today the worst ratings EVER.
