Is it a boy dog or a girl dog? Sometimes you can tell if you have a picture or video.

wabceyewitness 818 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I vaguely recall seeing new graphics debut over the weekend in the past. Gives them a chance to test things out live on the weekend shows and iron out kinks before the more-watched weekday shows. Graphics have usually debuted on Mondays and usually during the noon or early evening newscasts. The studio debuted on a Sunday; maybe some new graphics launched then but most were in place already before the launch. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11653-wabc-7-eyewitness-news/page/54/#findComment-150436 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleSeven 1955 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Even though the 2011 gfx update (8/8) was indeed a Monday launch, the 2008 graphics (5/24) and the 2011 set debut (9/24) were Saturday launches. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11653-wabc-7-eyewitness-news/page/54/#findComment-150441 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's safe to put the conversation to rest and just be happy for the days you had with the dog. After all, every dog has his day.

Weeters 1915 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Maybe they took the dog to live on a nice farm up state. Or maybe a producer got pissed off that weather was always going over their allotted time beause of the dog. That will get things cut real quick. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11653-wabc-7-eyewitness-news/page/54/#findComment-150461 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eat News 4745 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 i see what ur saying with those research and focus groups, but the last time they "benched" the dog it was due to complaints from the nimbys/hipsters Disney has some experience with dogs. Goofy, Pluto, Lady and the Tramp...101 Dalmations, Sneezy Dopey, Sleepy etc... Those dogs make money for Disney and don't cost Disney any money. They don't eat, shit, bite ask for pay checks or have owners that get all uppity and ask for a paycheck. Disney can control every aspect of those dogs. When a dog in Disneyland no longer serves it purpose...the Disney Doggie Lawyers find a way to jettison the pup to the pound. It was cute while it lasted...but it's not making us any money.

24994J 5575 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Just to stir the pot, here's a Twitter post by Bill Evans showing that dog that some of y'all are so obsessed with. The post was retweeted by WABC. So, they hate him, but they don't. They don't want him around, but they do. Discuss. I'll grab the popcorn.
