Geoffrey 860 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Apologies if this has been noted before but it's new to me... During the Mets broadcast just now, Gary Cohen was reading a promo for the next Mets broadcast on the station and ended it with "...on New York's own PIX 11." Not the same as "Chicago's very own" but it reminded me of WGN. I wonder if this will be used more often or if it was just a one-time line in a live promo script?

JoseRM303 171 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Maybe the teams for the new newscasts? (if they ever come to be) Maybe KGO anchor Carolyn Johnson might be one of the new anchors for either the new 11 am show, or the weekend morning show? The PR did say she accepted an opportunity to be anchor outside of the San Francisco market, and well hey WPIX is looking for new anchors and New York is outside the San Francisco market. Now if she is indeed going to WPIX and anchoring on weekends it would be a drag to go from a weekday schedule to a weekend anchoring/weekday reporting schedule.

Another rumor has her possibly landing at KNBC in LA. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11654-wpix-pix11-news/page/5/#findComment-102551 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoseRM303 171 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Another rumor has her possibly landing at KNBC in LA. What would she be doing at KNBC? Today in LA is pretty much covered, the noon show is covered (I've seen Michelle Valles co-anchoring at noon lately), Chuck & Colleen pretty much have the 5, 6 & 11pm shows covered. So that basically leaves the weekend morning shows. Is she perhaps going to co-anchor the morning show with Adrian? Or perhaps Adrian is going to give up the weekend Today in LA show, and just focus on the weekend evening newscasts. As of right now he co-anchors at 5 & 6pm on saturday nights in addition to doing the weekend Today in LA shows.

JoseRM303 171 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 She could be doing the noon and 6pm as Lucy Noland was. Possibly, but maybe just the noon show like Whit does. I mean hasn't KNBC have someone else anchor the 6pm show up until late last year when Colleen assumed 6 pm anchoring duties? As far as I can find out seems like Colleen just did the 5 & 11 and someone else did the 6. So maybe they just gonna keep Colleen at 6 and just have Carolyn do the noon show, but hey right now it's all speculation at this point we don't really know where she's headed or what shows she's going to be anchoring. I forgot to mention when Lucy Noland was first hired at KNBC she was hired on to anchor at 6pm, she added noon anchoring duties when the noon show was launched.

nynewslover 277 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Looking at Scott Stanford's twitter he's on vacation this week. I hope to god they give Tamsen a coanchor this week.

JoseRM303 171 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I'm sorry to ask this but I don't really watch PIX11 all that much, but can someone enlighten me as to why nobody likes or much cares for Mr. G?

I'm just curious that's all. I'll be glad to tell you. First off, you can tell that he creeps Tamsen out. To put it simply, he's a pervert. And not only that, he can't do the weather. He just mumbles the forecast, covers up the maps so nobody can see them, and doesn't even refer to the maps that are behind him. Personally, he didn't bother me when Jim and Kaity were there, but now he's just annoying and creepy.

NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Another hire by PIX. Amy Waldman and Sharon Van Zwieten also take new roles at the station. I wonder if this means more changes...

It's so hard to watch with only one person and Mr.G creeping on her the whole time doesn't help uggh, Tamsen's solo again at 5pm tonight...Not even on for 2 minutes and the teleprompter already froze and Tamsen's confused. Originally I was against the idea, but now It's at the point where they really need to just shut down completely and get a new ND and revamp their news operation.

After that they really don't cause Kori and Suki aren't good and after 7 there's very little chance that anyone local can beat Rosanna and Greg. If they bring in the right people they could definetly beat Steve and (Dari) but this will take a very long time. PIX really has lost all credability and it's sad because they had a good thing going. Weren't the new newscasts supposed to start by now? Why haven't they? I have no newsroom expierence and it could do a better job with my eyes closed.
