Bold underline: I could see this possibly happening also. However, definitely Dave and Rafael getting bumped up. What does Dave get bumped up to if Rafael gets TINY? No one thinks Erica gets a promotion? I see Erica as Janice’s replacement when she goes. I don’t rule out Bill Evans taking over. Why not? Because I would think WNBC would announce Chris replacement along with his retirement announcement. Perhaps WNBC dumped Chris for Bill especially with Sam Champion at WABC. Maybe it’s a forced retirement. Just a possibility. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11652-wnbc-news-4-new-york/page/28/#findComment-228407 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it’s a forced retirement. Just a possibility. I don't think Cimino's retirement is forced.. He spent 24 years at one station. Never having to leave and go against a rival station and plus Chris is on good terms with Management at WNBC . (So definitely no forced retirement here) However, Erica definitely deserves a promotion and I like her for 5 & 6, possibly Chief Meteorologist after Janice leaves. I give Janice another 5-7 years. 3 scenarios that may happen with Chris replacement: A) Dave gets bumped up to TINY and Rafael 11AM & 4PM B) Rafael bump to TINY and Dave keeps 11AM & 4PM C) Erica bump to TINY* (Wild card), Dave keeps 11AM & 4PM, Rafael stays at weekend TINY. I'd like to add this: When Chris is out.. 75% of time it's Rafael covering for Chris. Edited June 27, 2019 by Spintech33 Additional info.

mooneyhill1 11 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 If Janice Huff retires from tv weather forecasting, Erica, Rafael or Maria could become chief meteoroogist.

Spintech33 126 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 So. Tuesday is Chris Cimino's official last day. Although, I didn't get a chance to see the last hour of TINY this morning This morning pairings was a bit different: Darlene > Gus > Emily > Chris. Maybe one day, just one day I'd like to see Tracie or Katherine anchor TINY in replacement of Darlene or Michael. I believe either 1 has anchored News at 11 or the old News 4 at Noon. (Someone verify this please). Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11652-wnbc-news-4-new-york/page/28/#findComment-228545 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could Erica get TINY and Rafael be moving to weekends? Anything is possible.

Anything is possible. 1) Erica did 11AM 2) Rafael currently does weekends (AM) and she does Weekends (PM).. However, if the wildcard is Erica to do TINY.. Than its all weekends for Rafael. AM and PM.

Roadgeek Adam 170 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 WNBC and KNBC loved the odd 4s in the 1980s. I liked the WNBC 4. Then they went to a normalized 4.

I bet it will take a couple of months to sort out, and the new person that is rarely on camera gets the weekend morning spot (Maria something or other).

Kate Snow was in a tiny booth to do the NBC Nightly News updates for other timezones, while MSNBC was broadcasting from a dimly lit newsroom. When I checked Fox News Channel, who's across the street from 30 Rock, they were doing their broadcast from Los Angeles. Meanwhile on WABC Wheel of Fortune was airing with a bunch of technical issues, the bottom quarter was on the top of the screen and the top 3/4's were at the bottom of the screen. 9 hours ago, Spintech33 said: WNJU needs a major make over. That's not from WNJU's main studio. They were doing their own 11pm newscast at the same time from their main studio.
