  1. Rob Nelson already accepted a job at Newsy in ATL late last month..
  2. Albert has now jumped over to CBS 2 Chicago
  3. Albert Ramon headed to CBS 2! 2nd former NewsNation personnel to jump over to WBBM
  4. Palatine native Alexis McAdams is out
  5. And Albert Ramon has bailed from NN
  6. Yes he did anchor mornings with Zoraida, before then he was weekend mornings with Ellee Pai Hong and Anita Padilla
  7. I met Zoraida at the tower a few years back she was filling in for Pat on the 4. It’s sad to see her leave.
  8. Former NewsNation anchor Rob Nelson is headed to ATL just weeks after his departure from NewsNation
  9. I was already told a few months back that Mike Caplan didn’t want the evening position.
  10. And lets not forget the surviving one Dana Kozlov!
  11. Indeed they did. Multiple times, but the last time was from 2003-05, when they expanded from the 4:30pm time slot and as then Antonio Mora was anchoring alongside Childers before Blakley did
  12. Again?! Let’s see, the last to anchor CBS 2 news at 4p was Mary-Ann Childers and Derrick Blakley, which Blakley had came from NBC 5.
  13. Former ABC 7 Hungry Hound Steve Dolinsky is jumping over to NBC5 https://www.robertfeder.com/2021/08/02/steve-dolinsky-makes-reservation-nbc-5-food-guy/?fbclid=IwAR2YPHtKGiUHGoTK6XZuZr_YL5VO_z8s5CWzW63VIS6elO78Fo42Tc04yW8
  14. Nexstar actually posted the weekend morning anchor position in the careers category
  15. If you take a look at all of WMAQ's opens in the last two decades, it normally changes every 5-7 years. The other change I feel is needed is the desk mainly.
  16. Well it has been about 5 years (Which is the time of updated opens). Looks pretty decent, so far, also it's been about 9 years since the set came into play, might be time for a change.
  17. Update: Hassan confirmed it herself. Says she thought about life outside of work in an Instagram post.
  18. Looks like Yasmeen Hassan is out from CBS 2. I took a look at the station site and her bio is no longer there nor is her username on the morning news ticker tape (Bottom Of Screen) is shown. (Screenshot taken, 3/13/2020 during NonStop News Block)
  19. I just realized the desk was from downstairs! Good thing it’s still in use.
  20. 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.
  21. 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!
  22. 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.
  23. Davies is out!
  24. 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.
  25. Let's see what they do. (Hoping Caplan gets the spot)
