  1. Initially, when CBS first bought the station, CBS said they would strengthen 10/55's news department and compete with News 12 LI. https://www.newsday.com/business/cbs-inks-deal-to-buy-long-island-s-wlny-55-u08340 However, outside of a short-lived morning show going up against GDNY and the Pix Morning News, 10/55 was sent to West 57th, where it's been ever since. Some years later, it was alleged that 10/55 was bought by CBS so Peter Dunn could have membership access to a golf club. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/business/story/2021-01-24/cbs-tv-station-deal-wlny-peter-dunn-sebonack
  2. Can't they just shorten the name to CBS (location) Now? It's much easier to say.
  3. Reporter Aundrea Cline-Thomas has left Channel 2 https://twitter.com/AClineThomas/status/1545522540449234950
  4. Another WABC alum, Lori Stokes also had a tribute to Robb on her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CfpODVRPrv7/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
  5. The FCC repealed the "Main Studio" rule- where they had to have a physical location within the state they are licensed to. There were politicians like NJ Sentator Frank Lautenberg, who called for an investigation on Fox's ownership of WWOR, which did occur but Fox would keep ownership of the station. In other News 12 news, Newsday has reported that Elisa DiStefano has left News 12 Long Island https://www.newsday.com/entertainment/tv/elisa-distefano-news12-long-island-nqse29gq
  6. South NJ used to have an NBC affiliate, WMGM 40, which produced local news until Comcast pulled the affiliation from there. WMGM was in the viewing area of their Philly duop of WCAU/WWSI. Members of WMGM would end up creating SNJ Today.
  7. TVSPY, citing TVNewscheck is reporting a wave of resignations at News 12 New Jersey due to a "toxic environment" https://www.adweek.com/tvspy/mass-resignations-and-allegations-of-toxic-work-environment-at-news12-new-jersey/242201/ (pay wall) Here's the TVNC report: https://tvnewscheck.com/journalism/article/at-news-12-new-jersey-a-staff-exodus-over-workplace-toxicity-claims/
  8. Apparently, that's a thing across the O&Os now. I saw Q13 in Seattle do the same.
  9. Acoording to TVSPY, Tashanea Whitlow (previously with Black News Channel) will be joining Good Day New York starting June 15th and will co-anchor with Dan Bowens from 4:30-7am and the main show with Rosanna Scotto https://www.adweek.com/tvspy/tashanea-whitlow-to-join-fox-ny-as-am-anchor/241807/
  10. Probably the new reporter for the new LI bureau at Hofstra University
  11. So on top of this and Channel 4 to go private, What would the UK television scene look like when all this is done?
  12. Early reports say 2023, after WNJU moves in
  13. FX and the former Fox Family also aired MLB games during the early years of the MLB on Fox era from 1997-2001, as seen here
  14. Kristine Johnson announced that she was off-air due to catching COVID-19 and had been in recovery. Per FTVLIVE, She hopes to return on-air today https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2022/5/19/back-from-the-rona
  15. I would forgo any side brick/partition and extra accessories because it could distract from the visual. You can't go wrong with a simple skyline shot.
  16. TVNewser reported on May 3rd that CBS News had appointed Gabe Almanzar as Creative Director, who will be in charge of the graphics teams across the properties https://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/cbs-news-appoints-gabe-almanzar-creative-director/506668/ (paywall)
  17. Per TVSpy, Melissa Colorado from sister station KNTV NBC Bay Area started at WNBC on April 18th https://www.adweek.com/tvspy/melissa-colorado-switches-nbc-owned-stations-now-reports-for-wnbc/240932/
  18. If that does come to pass, then the stations better beef up their website and apps.
  19. Perhaps they may be trying a different presentation with the weather. How often had this happened?
  20. Honestly, they should just move any remaining programming to HLN to bolster that channel's programming
  21. Most likely a folding of CNN+ and Discovery+ into HBO Max
  22. They (as well as their predecesor MI News 26) has a habit of running PR pieces masquerading as news reports, so I'm guess it's no surprise that a PR firm is in charge though. My question is how are they still using their staff as byline for AP wire services? Can't they get in trouble for that?
  23. Per the FTVLIVE, Liz Cho is out with COVID-19 https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2022/4/13/that-didnt-last-long
  24. Honestly, it should be concerning to CBS management that Kemlani seems to be on the wrong side of the headlines quite frequently -- from trying to get Norah O'Donnell out of the Evening News and now this-- this can't be a good look for CBS.
  25. Per TVSPY, Yisel Tejeda, will be debuting as the new Noon anchor for Orlando's Telemundo 31 on April 4th. She was previously the 11pm anchor at New York's WXTV https://www.adweek.com/tvspy/telemundo-orlando-adds-yisel-tejeda-as-noon-anchor/239851/
