Don't know whose decision that was. I'd hate to see the weekend AM news canceled since Kirstin and John are great together.

NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted August 14, 2024 Share Posted August 14, 2024 (edited) I noticed that Alex Lee was dropped from a recent morning show promo, and her bio was scrapped off the website and any promotions. Quite strange, something must have happened. Dan did NY Living today with Marysol, Kendis did it the other day. I think Julie Millet has been covering traffic and wrote she will be filling in the next few weeks. I think Alex's last day on air was August 2nd.

RealNews18 204 Posted August 14, 2024 Share Posted August 14, 2024 Noticed that as well. There is one comment on her latest post asking where she’s been. Her Instagram bio still lists her at PIX, which obviously hasn’t been updated he latest post has a quote and ended the message with “the come back is always greater than the setback” 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11654-wpix-pix11-news/page/63/#findComment-299503 Share on other sites More sharing options...

civic110 18 Posted October 12, 2024 Share Posted October 12, 2024 Does anyone know if PIX still has Air11? I have not seen it used for morning traffic or breaking news. According to Tom Kaminski's IG, it says, "former helicopter reporter for WCBS880 & @pix11news 1988-2024." When WCBS880 signed off, did that mean the end of Air11 too?

abric 178 Posted October 17, 2024 Share Posted October 17, 2024 Technically, it was the WCBS 880 helicopter used on PIX 11. So, I guess when the radio station ended so did the contract to lease it.

MisterBill 99 Posted October 20, 2024 Share Posted October 20, 2024 (edited) Star Harvey announced that she is leaving on 11/3. No word on where she's going, but it's not New York.

Now that you mention it, Star would have been the perfect next traffic anchor if they wanted to go that route (especially since she already did traffic a fair amount). So now they are short a traffic and weather anchor. I wonder if they'll move Chris Cimino back to mornings or weekends, or maybe put Stacy Ann back on weekends. I noticed Greg Mocker also filled in on traffic this week. Makes sense since he is their transportation reporter.

MisterBill 99 Posted November 8, 2024 Share Posted November 8, 2024 (edited) Alexa Farrell is joining PIX11 as the new traffic anchor on Monday. She's married to Ryan Kristafer of FOX5. She's most recently from FOX61 in CT, but before that apparently spent six years at News12. She was a news anchor at both of those, so this seems like a step down, but I guess it's NYC.

NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted December 8, 2024 Share Posted December 8, 2024 (edited) Although Byron Miranda has been handling most weekend mornings and evenings so far, Stacy Ann Gooden filled in this morning, and "Nexstar Weather Center" meteorologist Jim Danner handled the evenings remotely from Texas.

NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Due to disputes between Optimum and Nexstar, WPIX is no longer available for Optimum subscribers. It seems the basic reason was that Optimum did not want to have to carry NewsNation anymore. https://deadline.com/2025/01/nexstar-optimum-carriage-dispute-tv-stations-wpix-newsnation-1236254076/ Quote In a statement provided to Deadline, Optimum accused Nexstar of demanding “exorbitant rates” for its programming. The station ownder is “using an anti-consumer negotiation tactic – tying local channels to less popular ones – requiring Optimum and its customers to pay for channels like NewsNation, which has essentially no viewership, in order to continue carrying Nexstar broadcast stations in various markets across the country,” the statement added. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11654-wpix-pix11-news/page/63/#findComment-302673 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 It seemed from her Instagram post that the change will be take place immediately. Personally, I'd like to see Kala Rama back as anchor in a permanent capacity. Vanessa is very good but Kala was always great in the early mornings with Craig. The only likely other option internally would be Katie Corrado or Grace Gomez. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11654-wpix-pix11-news/page/63/#findComment-303741 Share on other sites More sharing options...
civic110 18 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Is the weekend morning news that important to them anymore? There does not seem to be much stability; no rush to replace Star Harvey, and much of the two hours is now cut to make room for Ben Around Town, or even Paid Programming/Infomercials. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11654-wpix-pix11-news/page/63/#findComment-303763 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WPIX now does Saturday mornings from 8:00-9:30 a.m. and Sunday mornings from 8:00-9:00 a.m., which starkly contrasts with 8:00-10:00 a.m. when it debuted. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11654-wpix-pix11-news/page/63/#findComment-303766 Share on other sites More sharing options...
