  1. Erin Kennedy was laid off last May just 3 months after she came back from Maternity leave. Thats why Audrina Bigos has been anchoring the past year.
  2. Over the weekend Rafer Weigel revealed that Idler was trying to fire him the same way former WLS GM Joe Ahern fired his father years back!
  3. A lot of shade is coming to light. I was thinking the GM was trying to just cover it up, before outside sources (Feder) started to bring it out. IMO I wonder how people would've reacted to this if MG had said that to former anchor Diann Burns during her tenure at WLS.
  4. And I'm saying hoping Caplan gets the spot because we all know how viewers get outraged when an "Out of Towner" is hired to a Chicago station.
  5. Let's see what they do. (Hoping Caplan gets the spot)
  6. Steve Dolinsky has announced that he's leaving. https://www.robertfeder.com/2021/01/29/hungry-hound-steve-dolinsky-leaving-abc-7s-eat-beat/?fbclid=IwAR32kw7rY-ex53o8GXPGMJAiEG-WNnbFElDgXg86ZoBI00LUT5eTUAbrDFM
  7. As long as the bosses don't tamper with the music even the main "WGN News" Breaking News Theme cut from '97, even though 615's "Chicago's Very Own" is 13 years old.
  8. The curtains are just blinds for the windows in the newsroom. They somewhat are still slightly seen.
  9. I'm trying to figure out why the afternoon theme wasn't in the 11:30 open from 1993
  10. Rob Johnson and Judy Hsu were filling in for Ron and Diann, it was a Friday night so Judy wasn't anchoring her morning shift that day. I'm surprised it wasn't the royal WLS-TV evening theme.
  11. I remember being an infant and recognizing the colors of this talent bump back in the day! Took years to find this!
  12. And I of course recently made a Mugo Odigwe edit, however it will not upload due to the large file....
  13. Bomke is back! (From 8-18-2020)
  14. I've got a few "NonStop News" uploads on my YouTube channel from around the time Erin was back from maternity leave. In addition to that, I've also edited a "6:52" compilation where the anchors were next to the desk, which is pretty short but better than nothing
  15. So many see lately Yasmeen has been in the newsroom following the breaking stories, which was originally Audrina's role. I just don't know if it seems right. Since Kennedy and Glaros were laid off, we all know that morning show hasn't been the same. I honestly think Mugo Odigwe would be a better fit for the position.

  16. Yeah originally as Breaking News Anchor (Which was a promotion I guess she reconsidered).
  17. So on Wednesday I was watching 10 Minutes of Non-stop News on CBS 2, come to see after that Audrina Bigos was joining the rest of the team at the desk which is super rare
  18. New in the News, Former ABC 7 reporter Russ Ewing https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10216220806927697&id=1078072129
  19. Alan and Kathy's 1999 shot is so superb
  20. Hey, here's an old ABC 7 News, This Morning talent bump from '99! Took years to find this but there ya go!
  21. Haven't been on in a while but I uploaded this to YouTube a few days ago! Ahh those were the days. (September 2002)
  22. Terrell is expected to be back in Chicago next week according to his Facebook page.
  23. Alan might be in the dead ringer because of Kathy's departure from ABC 7. Besides he's worked alongside 4 women co-anchors in the last 28/35 years and his consecutive one was KB it could be a probable cause
