zasnynews 3 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 When did WNBC start a 7pm newscast? The guide still shows Access Hollywood but News 4 at 7 has been on all week. I’d have guessed this was impeachment related but it’s a standard newscast... no special coverage.

NowBergen 685 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 They said it was a special edition due to the impeachment trial when mentioned during the 6 pm newscast. They may be testing the waters (again). Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11652-wnbc-news-4-new-york/page/33/#findComment-239314 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go with the consensus that it is only for impeachment coverage. However, if not all the NBC O&O's have some sort of "special coverage" this week. Let's see if the 7PM newscast expands to next week with all the O&O's including WNBC.

A 7PM newscast would not work at WMAQ or KXAS because that is when network programming starts. Chicago and DFW already have 6PM newscasts which is the 7PM equivalent to the east coast stations.

For right now be grateful that MSNBC is taking over with all day impeachment coverage. However, from what I'm observing the O&O's are doing the actual 1PM coverage until local news in the afternoon (From what I saw yesterday with WNBC) They cut into the impeachment coverage to do news at 4, 5, and 6. Again, uncertain if they did a 7PM newscast for re-cap.

SnellKrell 52 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Hope this new addition had better journalistic chops than another recent hire, Myles Miller. Last week, Miller did a standup, reporting on a heinous crime, there he was, his eyeglasses propped on the top of his head, referring constantly to the police as "the cops." UGH!

SnellKrell 52 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 WNBC is acting responsibly, more than I can say for WCBS. Channel 2 is either not pre-empting the network for important NY state and city virus related news, or is joining-in-progress as it did this morning. "Tiffany" is showing tarnish these days!

I could see the 7pm newscast become permanent...but no way the hour long 11pm news stays...NBC is doing it to compete with ABC which temporarily moved Nightline back to 11:35. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11652-wnbc-news-4-new-york/page/33/#findComment-242631 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NowBergen 685 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Last night at 11 Stefan Holt was broadcasting either from his home or his dad's. John Chandler did sports from an empty newsroom , whereas earlier in the week Bruce Beck had switched to at home. This morning Rafael Miranda also was broadcasting from home. On Saturday Today, Dave Price has been filling in for Dylan Dreyer who is on family leave. Like yesterday on News 4, he broadcast from home. It seems NBC is being much more aggressive at getting on air folks out of 30 Rock and setting them up at home. Both Holts seem to have been set up with green screens, the rest including Chuck Scarborough, Janet Huff and Maria LaRosa from home offices or dens. I assume space, ability to be separate from spouses, kids, and pets (except fish as in Price's case) and capabilities (space for lighting, cameras, teleprompter, high speed connection, etc) for each on air person is taken into consideration as to who can broadcast remotely or not. After all this is done with, it would be interesting to see how they were able to pull all this off. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11652-wnbc-news-4-new-york/page/33/#findComment-243163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
