There were many 1-hour editions during the early days of the pandemic.
World News dos a east coast and a west coast edition at 7:30 P.M. during a short time during the worse of the Pandemic. Though I’m not sure if that was limited to ABC owned stations like WTVD, and KABC or both owned and affialties.

I remember in the 2010's, any time something really big happened, all of the Big Three evening news programs would do optional hour editions. I specifically remember Sandy Hook, the 2013 Moore, Oklahoma tornadoes, the 2016 San Bernardino shooting, and the death of Nelson Mandela all being covered in special hour-long editions. However, I don't recall any of the three doing this since the 2017 Las Vegas shooting. Was this the first time any of them did an hour edition since then?
Las Vegas ABC did a full hour. 2016 election CBS and NBC day after hour-long. Boston Marathon ABC, NBC, CBS hour long. CBS I think went to 8pm. Hurricane Sandy I think ABC did a full hour one time. And Osama Bin Laden Death day after ABC did a full-hour. -
They keep updating till it didn’t look good anymore.

Maybe BNC could be used a block for news programming on theGrio TV?
Actually, according to theGrio's website, it looks like a merger between the two networks and it appears to have taken effect on Monday. If theGrio hasn't had a FAST presence before, it now does. Their website says that the commentary will still continue, so it looks like this is a name change.
Yeah but entertainment is more his thing.

WLFL isn't getting FOX back. WRAZ is too strong of a FOX affiliate for that to take place. I couldn't see WTVD's Newscasts on a FOX Affiliate. It makes more sense for WLFL to be sold to Nexstar.
That could be true what about WRDC? I guess Univision could but that up. And yes I think Rupert Murdoch and is jealous of WRAL that’s why they may want to keep FOX50 WRAZ.

With WLFL I guess they would get the MyNet from WRDC and CW would go to WNCN 11.2. But a MyNet/independent duopoly would not really be ideal.
WLFL probably gonna try to get FOX back of Sinclair leave the market in hoping for the latter good riddance.

How long are the CBS O&O's (and stations like WCIU) tied into CW? And what would CBS do with their O&Os should they lose the CW? It may be a nice place to put their CBSN local streams OTA for at least part of the day, since many markets are duopolies to begin with.
Perhaps they make all there CW affiliates successful independents like LCAL and WLNY.

UPDATE: The same "permanent secondary" set was used all day yesterday and, in the hours, so far of Good Day Atlanta, I will keep posted on any potential updates, on a side note in the weeks leading up to this the panel (example below) overhead the weather center was not on and a smaller desk was used for weather reports
This smells a new set they’ve had it since 2014 it’s now 2022, so 2024 will be ten years that they’ve had and it’s 2022 two years before that year which will be 10 years having it and we’re 2 years before 10 years so whatever 10-2 is which is 8. So it’s pretty damn old ole how it’s gone by fast.

Is the heritage brand truly being de-emphasized? That's counter to Wendy McMahon's textbook marketing strategy when she was at both WCCO and WBZ.
I would agree, however, that the O&Os branding is very inconsistent; not just within the group, but even at the station-level.
I present the table below with no intent of making this a "list" thread, but to simply illustrate my point.
Extremely inconsistent on the social media and website domain. So the adding of the station to the CBSNews.com format will be much more easier.-

I know anchors in larger markets are well paid and these longer days are the exception.
Well paid I wonder if their annual salaries are $500,000-1,000,000 or in that ballpark. -

I was working at at station one night when there was a minor car accident outside the front of the building during our newscast. People in the newsroom got excited and sent a photographer down there because they wanted video on the air as soon as possible. In the minutes that followed, cooler heads prevailed and it was determined that it shouldn't even register as a story.
That reminds me of what happened at WLS-TV in Chicago more than 15 years ago when a car plowed into street-level studio sending Ravi Benchwal into a panic. -

Live with Kelly and Ryan is a WABC production and so it could have been a control room issue. WABC has only one control room and from 8 to 10 a.m. Live has use of the control room. That's why the GMA local cut-ins on WABC are done in the newsroom instead of their news studio. Heck, for 20+ years the Live set and the Eyewitness News set shared the same studio. I mention this because it could have played a role in WABC's decision to go on-air with a special report. I'll be interested to see the new set up once they move downtown.
Then with one control room how were the able to do it live from the Newsroom.

I was wondering where Liz was so I understand public curiosity. In her position however, I'd do the same. Keeping my business private, and give a bland answer to explain my absence. I'd want the public more concerned with my journalistic work than my personal life.
FTVLive said it was Josh Elliot and her have broken up. She has even left the house they had together. -
No the music is licensed.

It sad it’s truly a shame black peoples need their own TV networks just like how Hispanics have Univision and Telemundo and in English some younger Latino programming. This isn’t about racial segregation it wasn’t that it is about that blacks have no voice in America. White and Hispanic media don’t cover us well, and we need our views amplified like the former show on BNC. We need our own network owned by black also I firmly believe blacks should own their media, not a white person running it like at BET, which lost its spark a long time ago.

It would also be interesting to see if they use their feed for breaking national news similar to FOX5 simulcasting Fox news channel at times.
You mean FOX News Special Reports?

Again?! I expect it to fail yet again, unless they want to expand the 6pm. And I agree, they need more anchors than just Tamsen and Kori.
They could bring out Shirley Chan, or another anchor maybe Arrianee LeBleu. To anchor see how that works, Nexstar is gonna give up on this station, it’s gonna be a mini KTLA.-

A better signoff would be "If you can't watch us live, stream us at 10:30/9:30 central on CBS News Streaming".
They could also force the western stations (specifically the O&Os) to broadcast the east coast live at 3:30pm. I know KPIX does it, That could increase ratings.

New from TVNewser...the 11 p.m. newscast is now permanent along with an hour weekend expansion, a new hour will be added to Morning in America and Rush Hour, and Joe Donlon is gone after next Friday (thus the RH expansion), so start the 'when is WBBM picking him up' spec. All in all, 12 hours of new live programming to be added by Memorial Day to the schedule.
i think if Nexstar buys CW they can convert this into a Network News Division, and convert WGN America to what it supposed to be, Movies, TV, sitcoms, reruns. -

I always thought she was good paired with Cindy. Anyone is good when paired with Cindy, though. I hate that John was moved to weekends but again, they work well together so I guess I can’t complain.
John is actually good on weekend morning I think he’ll have a better time to shine there, without the busyness of the mornings. I do think Elise Finch deserved a promotion, but I think this gonna be her last stop, cause if ever Lonnie Quinn retires which won’t happen for a long time they’re gonna hire someone for out-of-market.-
