Only to be reassigned to weekends. I feel sorry for Patrick

Alex will be returning to his 11am seat alongside Marion and will be taking on the news at 4.

I’m not too big on JC. He just doesn’t really suit the weekday slot. I didn’t mind Patrick being a fill-in for the last year, Michelle has been doing a good job with mornings even after Andy and Zoraida left she’s keeping it up! I agree with the part that Management might as well place Patrick back in the 4 and place him on the 5 (A Mark Suppelsa type of move maybe)

Cassimy would’ve been great in the weekday morning timeslot

I think it was John Drury they hired from outside for a 2nd stint at 5 & 10 in '84. Ron was hired from outside only for the 5pm, but was promoted within for the 10pm after 4 years in 2002.

And I’m not really a fan of JC's anchoring either. It Just doesn’t click with me….

And as we’re down to 7 days, Alan Was given Recognition for his 4 decades in the ABC Disney family at a ceremony in NYC. Jim was also in attendance.

Baichwal really does deserve a weekday position. He actually PAID his dues.

For real. It seems that the male weekend anchors at ABC 7 are forgotten about for promotions apparently.

Ravi has been LONG OVERDUE for a weekday promotion after his first 10 years there everyone was suspecting he’d get the 4pm when Magers was retiring.

The board is back running it seems

Lets hope this good find is a good fit. Besides, Those morning anchor chairs have changed anchors twice as much since the reassignments of Ellee Pai Hong and the Late Dick Johnson 14 years ago.

Let’s just hope the viewers don’t have a hissy fit . You know how it goes when they hire someone born in the city from another news town

Let’s be real now, remember how they waited nearly a year to hire a 4pm anchor to co-anchor alongside Marion (Patrick). He wouldn’t be the first person to be an interim for nearly a year in the morning or any other newscast at NBC 5. Also his bio on the website never confirmed permanency of Patrick on the morning newscast. Quick fact: Currently no one has been able to break Sambolin's record of long-running morning anchor at NBC 5.

Erin Ivory is set to return soon!

Jim did great as interim 11am anchor years back! So he’s a perfect match!

So now that Ed Curran is back at 11am, are they potentially looking for another hire?

Marissa Para is set to leave CBS 2 within the next two weeks.

There hasn’t been a court show on WGN since Judge Jeanine Pirro which was taped at NBC tower years ago!

And they deleted the clip a short time later

The only person I think NN has in their New York side is Tom Negovan (former WGN News At Noon Anchor)

I took some time out to catch on the 4pm and finally seeing that CBS 2 not only uses the “Swinging” cut of “The Enforcer” package for “NonStop News” in the morning but also being used for “Four Stories At Four”

And with Stacey Baca preparing to sign off in the next few weeks they’re probably looking closely between Jordan and Nagy maybe. Let’s not forget the last female who anchored weekend Mornings on ABC 7 I believe was Judie García.

I second that when it comes to Padilla. After Darlene Hill left, Padilla's demeanor just became eh.
