Good Lord, finally WABC. This is a massive step up for them but the current KGO/KABC look is better, and IMO would look better as a group package. Here are some stills:
-
Not really. seems like a standard newscast to me. EDIT: Some insight finally, sister station Fox 26 Houston explains their NewsEdge as a faster paced look at local news, so I suppose that means the same thing on WAGA.
-
And this is recent for Fox 4 because during Hurricane Ian in 2022 , they had reporters and anchors doing comprehensive coverage.
-
Looking at FOX4 ft Myers there are no on screen anchors just voice over only MMJ packages and voice over only VO/Sots
-
Overall the new COX look isn't horrendus it's just inconsistent. Most of the graphics are 3-D, but a lot of the lower thirds are flat.

https://youtu.be/h6n4HfsIuK8?si=2JW2sNkrOWuSz49e https://youtu.be/Iy7pMOpTKZU?si=e2wA92zKzGRuZrLw To expand on what I was saying, the package production is not bad at all, especially the reporters stand up in the WPTV video. They have a more corporate PR produced feel, to them, different from a standard fast following newscast package. These feel like short digital documentaries, especially because of their slower tone and camera angles. hard to explain, idk if you see similar things.

I mean Time Period as in year

WAGA like other O&O's brands their 11pm newscast as "NewsEdge". Does the branding mean anything? I ask because Fox 5 News Edge at 11 doesnt seem to differ in format from typical newscasts. Confusingly News Edge is also a online news service from the Fox News Channel.

This is unfortunate and may provide insight on Strahan's absence. His daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor.

Branch off from the Atlanta News first thread that eventually became about every station in Atlanta.
-
Out of curiosity, during which time period was this?
-
Don't know where else to post this, but WAGA like many O&O's calls their 11 PM newscast Fox News Edge. Exactly what does that branding mean. News Edge is also apparently it's also an information service from the Fox News Channel.
-
The WSB package would look better as 3D not flat. The Action News Jax look awkwardly mixes the 3D glossy logo with flat L3s. I liked that COX still maintained the 3D look. Hopefully Hearst doesn't go the flat route.
-
I know it was the first respectable amount of snow in 2 years but did the accumulation totals warrant bringing in the weekday team?
-
Outside of Good Day New York, Fox 5 needs to change up it's other anchor lineups, besides what they're doing right now. I would say take some talent from other stations but they tried that with Lori and Sukanya. Perhaps they could try mixing up their newscast formatting. WTTG and WOFL are good examples.
-
But I see what @GodfreyGR was getting, at. It seems both shows are always on past the point of caring anymore, much like The Voice on NBC and The Bachelor on ABC. I don't fault CBS for sticking to what works, but their routine of recycled police procedural franchises and comedies becomes repetitive and generic. I was also surprised at HBO's ratings were that low despite the critical acclaim of a lot of their shows.
-
As much as I like Sam, and as much star power as he brings to the weatherman role, as an employer I would just get someone who can work full-time rather than hiring a sixth meteorologist. More power to him though for getting that schedule and getting decent time off that a lot of us would wish to have.
-
Not surprised that they're making changes. While Rosanna and Bianca/Lori got the job done, the pairing wasn't pulling enough to make me tune in like the Greg years. The show has yet to recover. Being that Greg was just going to leave in a few years after returning to GDNY, Dave Price might as well have stayed put. I wonder what made them select Curt? Really interested to see how this goes and I'm glad Fox gave an older anchor a chance. WNYW must be paying him the big bucks! It seems like a lot to fly bi-coastal every week but people do it. Made the mistake of reading the comment section on the New York Post article, yikes at the racism. Sports anchor added to a morning show seems to be a trend in NYC with Strahan and Burleson. Joe Garigiola on Today paved the way.

HLN tied with HBO, I didn't think HLN had that many viewers. CBS dethrowned as most watched! No surprise that kids television isn't doing well. I recently saw Adult swim on Cartoon Network on at 5 PM which used to air around 10. Articles I read up say it's because they're going more for their adult audience since kids aren't watching. It sucks, but well before screaming became a cultural mainstream none of the kids networks produced a consistent class of hit shows since about 2013. How much profit in commercials can TV networks realistically make with less than 500,000 viewers? I guess if those numbers can work for social media/youtube it might stand for television?

Good Day Atlanta is 75 hours long so she could definately fit in there.

Haven't had a chance to sit down and watch KTLA recently. Is most of their heavy news output (outside of mornings) panel/discussion/interview based, or is it regular packages and vo/sots on repeat?
-
With local news, occupying much of local station's schedules, surprisingly stations havent adopted a cable like discussion model (minus the arguing) to fill airtime. Much of what I've seen are straight vo/sots and packages. I wonder how much of KTLA's heavy news product is discussion based--outside of mornings?
-
Over the year in general and during the holidays. In the past few years the station had some major talent departures: John Favole, Roxanne Stein and Kelly Dunn. Their current set is very barren compared their their superior previous set. I'll say WPBF 25 is probably the best product in the market right now... (though according to their website, they only have half the number of reporters that 5 and 12 do).
-
Caught some of WPTV/WFLX's newscasts. The quality is not the same as years past. The packages --based on online employee reviews and observation-- appear to be heavily MMJ and have a college-ish short documentary feel to them. There are a lack of live shots, which is fine compared to sister market Miami where unnecessary live shots are rampant. There were about 5 or 6 in WPLG 's 11 pm A block.

Im surprised I haven't seen some station anchors go the work from home route for the holidays
