News 4 at 11.. (Reunited): Michael G and Pat in for David and Stacey today.

You may have a point.. CBS Philly is taking some notes from WCBS which already has CBSN. Hopefully, they get a new studio for CBSN Philly. They should get more new faces for the new CBSN. Although Philly is a tough market to deal with. However, this puts KYW in a good position to deal with CAU and PVI.

Answer on the bottom in regards to Raegan Medgie hosting GDW 4:30-7. Looks like WNYW may need to look for a new morning anchor to possibly sit beside Kerry Drew. You are absolutely correct.. Greg Kelly is NOT coming back.. Don't bet your bottom dollar on it...

Yes.. KABC and KGO both start morning news at 4:00AM WABC starts at 4:30AM...

WRC does a good job with that.. News 4-7 than nightly news. Hopefully WNBC goes back to that format. I haven't heard too about Access being renewed or cancelled.

Same for this morning.. 8/13.. Hopefully they could bring more people in the chair for the AM. PS: Jen Lahmers bio is still up.. Meanwhile, Suki's bio is down.

My guess is News 12 Bx/BK is in Soundview.. I find it weird that the news rooms are in ops for WC and HV in respective areas. However studio is all the way in Woodbury Crossings for News 12 WC/HV. I know News 12 LI is there too. At one point I remember News 12 BK was out of Sheepshead Bay. I interned there briefly plus they had a Canarsie Bureau that covered the rest of Brooklyn before settling in Soundview.

Will that include News 12 BKN/BX and Hudson Valley all into 1 studio. I'm not 100% with this but News 12 BKN operates out of Sheepshead Bay & Canarsie Bronx News 12 out of Soundview, News 12 Westchester in Yonkers and News 12 Hudson Valley in West Nyack..

Thank You for pointing that out for me. I rushed it a little too quickly. However, you are correct. I say mid-September for his start.

Replacement for Erica Grow as per this post via FTV: https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2019/8/5/headed-to-the-big-apple

NEW SHERIFF IN TOWN AT KYW: FTV is reporting that Brandin Stewart is now General Manager and President at KYW https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2019/8/6/new-boss-named-in-philly Great hire for the Philly CBS O&O. Hopefully this could equal good results.

FIOS 1 kinda does a better job of covering Long Island with expanding to New York City better than News 12.

Maria LaRosa doing weather (11AM) today.

At the going rate right now we might see a little bit of Janice and possibly Dave doing weather on weekend nights until they get a new person. I was a bit surprised when I saw Janice on at 11 last night. Probably WNBC has it's reason why Erica is no longer there.

I think that was the one call that was expected with these TINY changes that 1 weathercaster would drop.

Just as others indicated- 2PM Time slot for most ABC O&O's.. Show is renewed for Seasons 14 and 15 as per Deadline article released in January.

Steve McKenzie OUT of KYW as managing editor. Monique Braxton IN at KYW as interim managing editor. (Previously at NBC10-WCAU) Source: FTV.

TINY 7/29/19: Darlene > Michael > Lauren > Maria Very pleased to say that Maria did great on her first day. She had her little moments (first day glitters). However, in all retrospect I feel TINY will be in good hands. However, we all here may have our opinions about either Rafael, Erica or Dave to be apart of TINY.

,,,, Construction is or has already begun. A few other tenants have to vacate within 3 days. As of 8/1/19 demolition will begin for the New Hudson Square area.

Yes that is correct. Just recently observed that. Thank you for pointing that out for me.

I totally forgot that 2017 acquisition to Entercom and yes you are correct with the contracts b/c I would remember certain WCBS-TV reporters doing reports on 880 and vice versa.

KYW IN TROUBLE AS PER THIS POST via FTV: Station Manager Brian Kennedy is OUT the door. No replacement has been set as of yet. KYW has struggled throughout the years in ratings. I will say this. No one is not messing with the news station near the Philadelphia Zoo. Sorry but not sorry. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2019/7/23/out-the-door-in-philly PS: They may need to the same at NYC CBS O&O.

From New Haven to Upper East Side Manhattan. Not a bad pickup at all. GDNY will be in good hands with this new acquisition. Anchor comes from Connecticut News 8.

I don't agree with getting rid of the morning program at WCBS-TV. However, the talent has to seriously change. Honestly, I can't remember when the last time WCBS-TV had good talent for their Weekday morning program. But in regards to traffic: WCBS Newsradio 880 is #1 when it comes to traffic breaking news and if that was incorporated into the TV program in the morning I personally think we wouldn't be talking about an traffic anchor and use an anchor from 880. Morning drive anchors are pretty hard to find. However, when you find one and they are good. You keep them and invest with them. It's proven success at the other stations. Why can't WCBS-TV get with the program with that. #IMO.. #carryon.

Eyewitness News AM 7/23: Mike > Michelle > Sam. Opinion: Mike makes a good fill-in anchor. However, too early to have him with other pairings. But, so far so good from what I saw the last 2 days. They went back to the 2018 version with the Accuweather marquee this morning with Sam. @IceManNYR. So I will say this, WABC uses 2 versions for the weather center.
