NewsNation The Turmoil Saga of NewsNation
Kenneth Kissel replied to TVLurker's topic in US Cable News
Lol. At least she will be going to a network where no one cares. -
Breaking News : WABC-TV News Director, Rehan Aslam, passed away in Ohio this morning. For nearly a year, Rehan had been battling an aggressive brain tumor. He fought with bravery and optimism until the very end. https://www.facebook.com/100044295403305/posts/pfbid02h8nkCLcMZFxJxvNTLV6pEoSC4nmzQe3pCnUvdMy7cCmjnS3CSLo15ZYNeNQEXqyAl/?sfnsn=mo

NewsNation The Turmoil Saga of NewsNation
Kenneth Kissel replied to TVLurker's topic in US Cable News
In my opinion, If Nexstar has enough money to buy the debt caused by The CW, They have enough money to buy out the syndication rights to stop airing "In The Heat Of The Night"/others and air continuous news like every other NEWS network does. Nexstar needs to stop making excuses for moving people to digital and actually get serious about Breaking News because If they don't, Not only will others surpass them, but no one would want to buy NewsNation if Nexstar ever wants to sell it. This is a massive failure from every side imaginable and the person to blame is Perry Sook and his sky high retransmission fees/greed. -
NewsNation The Turmoil Saga of NewsNation

It is embarrassing for NewsNation and Nexstar as a whole. The only way it can be saved is if it becomes a broadcast news network. I keep thinking that The CW will become a broadcast feed of NewsNation because of how stupid Nexstar is. Do you want NewsNation to fail Nexstar? Because it is the biggest joke in TV at this point. -
Here is Kristen Powers' debut Newscast which aired on WTAE last night. You can also see former WSAZ reporter Tori Yorgey in this newscast as well (the reporter that was hit by a car on live TV).

ABC changing their logo; New graphics coming for ABC owned stations
Kenneth Kissel replied to Briella's topic in Graphics
The better question is will those "new" graphics include Move Closer To Your World? -
WTTG's Coverage of Roe vs Wade being Overturned. Fox News Channel needs to learn from this coverage.

I hate to say this but NewsNation can learn A LOT from The National Desk. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cey-b-DpQ9z/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= -
NewsNation The Turmoil Saga of NewsNation

If anyone thought they were going to NewsNation to get news on the January 6th Hearings. You saw THIS. -
It is weird, I thought they all just back from vacation. I switched to KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh shortly afterwards to see if they were doing the same and they have Reporter Erika Stanish anchoring (former KOKH-TV reporter, before that she was a WJAC Weekend anchor). Mary Ours (was with WJAC with Erika) (Pulling double duty today) , and Sports Director Bob Pompeani.

I hope your right, but it has been noted on this forum multiple times that morale is at an all time low at CBS. I wish Adam well and hopes he makes the CBSEN successful but history says otherwise.

How will Norah mess this EP up? Inquiring minds want to know. I say he lasts 6 months.
-
I'm not as Surprised, Fox Weather was also showing WFTX's (FOX 4) cameras from Fort Myers as well (A Scripps Station).
-
Jeff could do so much better if he was with NBC or ABC. We saw it with Tom Llamas when he switched from ABC to NBC. I could also see Jeff Glor do what Russ Mitchell did with WKYC. There are still stations that will hire network talent for the right price.
-
Paramount can deny it all they want but CBS was trying to replace Norah because Norah is terrible at doing the CBS Evening News. Ratings haven't been this bad since Dan Rather was at the network. Even Katie Couric had better ratings as the anchor then Norah has now. There is a reason why morale is at an all time low at CBS, it starts with Norah and ends with her too.
-
I agree, especially the CW O&Os. Myself and others talked about this in the Nexstar Buying the CW? channel in more detail but I believe KDKA/WPCW will both be going to Nexstar after Nexstar takes over The CW.
-
Shawn Hoder didn't do well in Tampa with WTSP being TEGNA's experimental station. New GM Chris Cotugno has already stumbled with saying that Pittsburgh isn't a sports town. I'm very worried about Pittsburgh's long time ratings leader due to these two new hires. According to many people I know at the station. Moral has plummeted since Kathy Hostetter became the GM of WJZ in Baltimore. This is not good for KDKA.

KENS 5 Has the Updated Graphics as well.

I agree, NYC is the best bet. I wonder if cost has something to do with that decision as well.
-
Oh, it looks like KYW isn't just importing their weather from Pittsburgh, you can add KTVT Dallas Meteorologist Jeff Ray to this list. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2022/5/24/what-the-hell-is-up-with-that. How does this happen in a Top 5 market like Philadelphia?
-
Not bad for someone who (just 4 years ago) was on WJAC with a not so certain future. I'm so happy for Mary. https://twitter.com/MaryOursWX/status/1528003287127040000?t=TbBY97KZyQt7nFR4jAfqMw&s=19
