It’s hardly the point of this evening’s breaking news but WABC’s new location is proving to be a prime vantage point for this story. Mike Marza has been reporting from the outside deck with the crash site in the water behind him.

Mike really is destined to become the face of Channel 7 by 2027 or 2028.

When did WABC start doing a 5pm talent intro? It’s nice to see and they used to only do the talent open for First@4 and 6pm but no 5pm.

They began airing 5pm talent opens when the new graphics debuted last year in January 2024. It’s the first weekday 5pm talent opens to air since Diana Williams retired in September 2019.

I’m just seeing the 10am soft set for the first time, this is such a remarkable improvement and sharp look for WABC. 
 

Gives me hope that the GMA set won’t be so bad.

With a few adjustments, the newscast it could all be from this space.

 

 

I liked it when I used the set like this when it first came out, differentiating from others newscasts.
