nynewslover 269 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 For the past few weeks I've seen Kirsten Cole on PIX News at 10.. Tonite I saw Magee Hickey doing the lead story.. Are they both with PIX now? Or what's up with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abric 157 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Well Magee Hickey's contract wasn't renewed at WCBS. It expired this month. So she is probably doing freelance. Kristin Cole is officially with WPIX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njlady 1 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I thought that was Magee Hickey - I recognized her voice! And John Marshall did the weather last night too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njlady 1 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Here is an article about Magee Hickey http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv/2011/07/26/2011-07-26_broadcast_veteran_magee_hickey_making_news_again_with_move_to_wpixch11_after_bri.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvknowledge 5 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Nice to see Kirsten doing real news again rather than the fluff crap they eventually gave her at cbs2. She looks good and energetic. Magee as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njlady 1 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Craig Allen is now the weekend weatherman. I always thought he did a good job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceManNYR 222 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Diana Rocco who had been freelancing at FOX5 was reporting for WCBS on the 12pm newscast. Speaking of WCBS and WPIX, I thought it was ironic on an episode of "The Good Wife" from last season one of the characters was doing a local news interview with Erica Hill meant to be from WCBS and they were using the WPIX studio.

tvknowledge 5 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Lisa Mateo and Jim Watkins actually used their last segment on Saturday' 10 to announce the changes. Watkins officially welcomed Craig Allen to the team that night and last night. Linda Church and Mr G also worked for Bill Carey when he was news director at WCBS in the 90's so he appears to be assembling a very familiar weather team for him. A bit OT but also this past weekend, there was a very attractive but very young woman doing sports for WCBS. She could not have been more than 20 and not to be cruel, but sounded it too. I'm surprised they would put someone on so green to NYC TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nynewslover 269 Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 Lisa Mateo said it's only for a few weeks and will be back on the weekends in a few weeks.. I guess they need help in the mornings since Jill Nicolini left.. My question is how come Wends-Friday Linda Church is from 6-9.. Why were her hours cut? Was it her choice or is she the next one out?

Geoffrey 779 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 My question is how come Wends-Friday Linda Church is from 6-9.. Why were her hours cut? Was it her choice or is she the next one out? Maybe it's a sign Linda Church is moving to weekends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvknowledge 5 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 LOL Geoffrey, that thread and rumor was started in May 2007. You think its finally going to happen? I guess anything is possible over there but I hear Linda loves her new shortened shift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
