Goes to show you what a great person Cindy is when the Chenbot pays you a compliment.

Unlike that other anchor/diva whose been a mainstay at CBS 2...

[moshewx 19]

cna247...Agreed!! Right on the money there!

Who's that?

[Daybreak 289]

Who's that?

I think they are talking about Dana Tyler.

John Marshall is doing weather this morning. He implied that he will be on for the next few months, filling in for Vanessa Murdock, who will be handling weekend PMs while Elise Finch is out on maternity leave.

 

John commented that this is his third stint at the station. I guess the first was when he handled weekend mornings between Megan Glaros's departure and Katie Fehlinger's arrival, and then a few years ago when he returned during Vanessa Murdock's maternity leave.

[Roadgeek Adam 170]

At least he's staying around the market.

So apparently CBS is getting into the whole virtual weather graphics thing too...

[Geoffrey 873]

In case it's not obvious, the part with the drop-down weather monitor is also virtual. Yes, CBS 2 is still using chromakey for weather but does a pretty good job of making it look like part of their studio.

KOVR did that but not with weather. they did it during news headlines.

Are any CBS O&O stations formatting newscasts for 16:9?

[TheRolyPoly 2592]

Are any CBS O&O stations formatting newscasts for 16:9?

 

Not at WFOR and its the only English-language station in my market that does so. The rest (WTVJ, WSVN and WPLG) are formatted in 16:9

 

The Spanish stations aren't... at least as of now.

Raegan Medgie did the AM weather forecasts Saturday through today.

Vanessa who has been subbing for Elise Finch has been subbing for Lonnie.

[NYNewsCoverage 308]

Lou Young announced on Twitter today that he's leaving CBS 2.

[Roadgeek Adam 170]

This is a big loss to WCBS. Lou Young has been a staple of New York news for over 30 years now from WABC to WNBC to WCBS. I really wish he'd come back to WABC, but I don't see that as likely.

[brianpr3 178]

woah i remember him on there when i was in nyc.. best to him...

[nobody 20]

cbs2 is probably slashing salaries again
