NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Lisa Mateo is reporting live from the balloon festival in NJ today on the PIX News at 5, but she also did the weather in addition to her reporting. I wonder if she'll do the weather again at 10, or if they'll call in Craig Allen or Joe Cioffi for that broadcast. I'm only saying this because this is the first time Lisa did the weather since her role was reassigned when PIX revamped the morning show.

nynewslover 277 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Idk about WNBC cause I normally don't watch them but if FOX knows what's good they'd put Christina Park or Sharon Crowley.. Maybe Juliet Huddy? on at 5. Do regular news at 6 with Ernie and Dari.

Upallnight 2 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Barmash's latest Tunedinnyc post about PIX is so weirdly bitter, like a mean girl Facebook post. Everybody's got an opinion, but he only seems to have one and it is getting a little weary.

NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Barmash's latest Tunedinnyc post about PIX is so weirdly bitter, like a mean girl Facebook post. Everybody's got an opinion, but he only seems to have one and it is getting a little weary. I agree, his opinion is starting to get to me. Take a look at some of these quotes: "Tuned In would get spin from the other stations, but PIX typically is the only station to put such emphasis on the summertime, a time when viewership is drastically altered by vacations." "The only thing worse than declaring an off-season victory is comparing results from last summer" "And in case you’re wondering, the PIX News at 10 made a 33 percent leap compared to July 2013. That stat is somewhat misleading since the station was still using one anchor" "The next big question for WPIX is how will they fare in the November sweeps?" Barmash has to start looking at the bright side of things. Watching WPIX the last few days (especially the evening 5 and 10pm newscasts), the content has improved DRASTICALLY. The only thing wrong about the evening newscast is that they have to cut down on weather teases, and get a new studio. That's all. The morning newscast is a different story, it's still a bit of a train-wreck, but not horrible. Although this probably belongs on the WNBC thread, if their 5pm newscast continues to do poorly in ratings, does anybody else see a situation in which Gus Rosendale anchors with Contessa on weekend mornings, and Pat Battle replaces Shiba at noon and 5pm? I honestly don't, but was just wondering IF WNBC was to execute this plan, how ratings would turn out.

dabx 60 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Jerry Barmash is not credible at all. His inside Pix contacts almost never right. Dam Mannarino leaving never happened. I can understand some of his criticisms in the past, but the station is finally showing improvement. What the Zell cronies did to this station was criminal. If he was a true reporter, he would write the station is finally showing promise and not an not his opinion.that the number reported are bogus. His reports have the feel of a jilted lover.

(Not knocking John, but come on) The real challenge is once the TV Season officially starts in a month. Did they really win at 5 or did more people opt to not watch the other channels in the middle of July leaving Pix with more views by default? Spin away!

My point was that if the viewership is less during the summer, ii is down across all stations, even WPIX. With whatever the total viewership is, they saw the stronger numbers Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11654-wpix-pix11-news/page/13/#findComment-111816 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upallnight 2 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 PIX bests WNBC and WNYW/Fox again during the admittedly not so important August sweeps. But still. Seems like a trend. The end of the Charlier/Carey regime is now visible to viewers at home.

NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Rachel Frank has made the decision to leave WPIX after she has her baby and return to her home, that is FOX CT. I wonder if Chris Knowles will get the spot, or will Linda take all four hours? You can read her full blog post here: http://rachelforecasts.blogspot.com/2014/09/back-to-connecticut-starting-family.html EDIT: just read the full post, and apparently she is starting back in CT Monday for the evening newscasts. So I guess today was her last day at PIX? Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11654-wpix-pix11-news/page/13/#findComment-115075 Share on other sites More sharing options...
