Page Six (not the best of sources, but anyways) suggests her exit was not amicable.

LinCruzChicagoNYLA 17 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) On 12/12/2021 at 8:53 AM, LinCruzChicagoNYLA said: WNBC's holiday sing along is doing virtual again for the second year. This year's song will be "Feliz Navidad" and it is to tie-in to Illumination's animated film "Sing 2" due to release in theaters on December 22. This year's holiday sing along will marked the fifth year anniversary of hybrid Live Action/Animation promotional involvement between WNBC and Illumination. Take a look on their different comparisons from 2016 and this year: The one from 2016 is filmed in the Rockefeller Center Tree, but they include scenes from promotional clip from the first film. Following the "Happy Holidays" line and Gunter skates over the 2008 "4 New York" logo, the voiceover tag says "...And catch "Sing", in theaters December 21st!" The 2021 version of the promo begins with the characters from the second film followed by Pat, Gus, and Raphael says "Wait! Wait! Wait! What? What?" before the talent singing the same song. Towards the end of the promo, Jimmy Crystal (voiced by Bobby Cannavale) buzzed it, then Chuck Scarborough ends the promo (ala last year) says "Happy Holidays from NBC 4 New York (and Telemundo 47)..." followed by the voiceover tag "...And "Sing 2", Only in theaters December 22nd (Rated PG)!" This is the first time that the WNBC holiday sing along that to bear the MPA PG rating logo as like did to other movie tie-in promotions. There's is an alternate version of the ad. the voiceover tag now says "...And "Sing 2", Only in theaters Wednesday (rated PG)!" which is used for this week only. Look at 0:09 mark for the video.

NYNews 54 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Would this be considered pandering to a demographic that they know is generating more viewership than on the English stations?

nathannah 2429 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Or...they just decided to encompass both stations in a fun promo and the song was handy to do so? Not every station promo has to be a lurch involving crimes and accidents and claims of being first. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11652-wnbc-news-4-new-york/page/49/#findComment-268020 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They often operate as one station. Top brass are the same. Weather, investigative reporting and consumer complaint reporting has been promoted as both stations.

I'm guessing she was working for NBCSN. If that is the case, the channel shuts down next week. Although some sports programming is moving to USA, others to Peacock, I would guess some are being redeployed elsewhere within NBCU. The question becomes, will this be a third person in sports, or, is John Chandler moving to full time news reporting?

I did not see the story that was referenced, so I don't know exactly what it said. But from her IG profile, it seems like she is mostly a CNN person, not NBCSN. which would likely have been freelance. Olympic and Paralympic host, CNN Sports/HLN/AKC contributor. Always game for good story & ️ :@cnn @cnnsport @hln_be @americankennelclub @nbcolympics Personally, I'm going to wait for something more definitive before wondering about people moving around. I have never been a big Bruce Beck fan, despite all of his awards. I was always a big Len Berman fan, and I actually like John Chandler. We'll have to see what changes, if anything.

B2r4a6n 103 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I noticed on the channel guide this Friday that since Miley Cyrus' New Years Eve show will be uninterrupted from 10:30pm-12:30am... News 4 NY will go on at 10pm. I've never seen that before. I'm assuming most if not all NBC stations are doing this? 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11652-wnbc-news-4-new-york/page/49/#findComment-268275 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterBill 99 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 So, just when it seemed like Adelle Caballero was the permanent traffic replacement, we have Emily West this week with no mention of filling in for Adelle.

NowBergen 681 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Did WNBC actually announce she was permanent vs speculation on this board? She is not on their website biographies. It’s also possible she had a pre-committed vacation that the station honored - not unusual with mid career new hires.

No, was never announced as the replacement. And she hasn't changed anything online. Maybe just an extended trial or simply a fill in when Emily wasn't available. But she hasn't been announced as the replacement, either. Alex Lee is changing jobs, so maybe it's going to be her.

SnellKrell 52 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I don't know the answer the the question, but don't go by WNBC's website when it comes to station personnel. It's been a joke for years! First, try to find the pictures and bios of the on-air staff. It's like playing "Were's Waldo?" They are buried and unless you know how to find them, it's a mission impossible. Other stations proudly have easily found links to "Meet the Team." This ongoing problem was heightened when the station continued to list a reporter, with his picture and bio for some 18 months after he had died. I had to send an email to the then GM to have the page updated.

Welcome back! You've been sorely missed. First that's shocking news that Chris Cimino is coming back to NYC airwaves and apparently down the block to 42nd and 2nd.. Second: I notice this could only be today only that there is News 4 at 12noon. However, the broadcast was only for 10 minutes. Lastly: As for the traffic replacement for Lauren Scala. There hasn't been a report as for the official replacement. Unless it is mentioned via WNBC social pages (Sometimes where announcements are made) or from the actual anchor it self. I wouldn't rely on WNBC's website. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11652-wnbc-news-4-new-york/page/49/#findComment-268603 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what your reference to "down the block" is, since WNBC is at 50th and 6th, so nowhere near WPIX.
