Nynewsguy7 12 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 On 3/27/2025 at 10:33 PM, MediaZone4K said: The last time I recall that happening was 2011 under Maurice and Kristine. Can't speak to today. I would love to see the latest NYC numbers. Stations and talent often claim to be number one all the time, but it could just mean in a specific demographic, time period or slot. Prime example, I've heard people at WSB calling it the "number one station in the country", but last time I checked that was WABC. More than likely it was a specific Saturday or Sunday night at 11pm when WABC was late because of sports. It’s a very “creative” way to be number 1, when the competition doesn’t exist. as for WSB in Atlanta. Their claim actually isn’t wrong. By percentage, they do have more watchers. It’s again, a technicality. obviously the NY DMA is larger and therefore WABC has more total viewers, but in Atlanta DMA, the percentage of total available viewers is higher for WSB. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11655-wcbs-cbs2-news/page/65/#findComment-304787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey 869 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Deborah Norville announced today that she's leaving Inside Edition after 30 years when this season ends: https://www.tvinsider.com/1184654/deborah-norville-leaving-inside-edition-final-episode-date/ Mary Calvi anchors the weekend edition and fills in for Norville during the week. I wonder if she's in line to take over, and if that would affect her duties anchoring the morning news. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11655-wcbs-cbs2-news/page/65/#findComment-304846 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNewsTV 255 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Another "problem" for WCBS management to solve. The rotation of meteorologists at night, Maurice's replacement at 5pm and a possible departure of Mary Calvi from the morning shift. Although, I think Cindy Hsu will likely take over the morning news. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11655-wcbs-cbs2-news/page/65/#findComment-304850 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey 869 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Now that it's mid-April and winter weather seems to be in our rear view mirror, CBS 2 CBS News New York has rebranded the Mobile Weather Lab, which launched in March 2012 (I took some of these photos) and was redone in August 2016, as the First Alert Weather Tracker. John Elliott says it has "so many cameras," including a "slush cam" down below, though they only showed a roof camera today. Interestingly, the CBS 2 logo square appears on its own, instead of next to the "CBS News New York" portion of the logo. The truck also uses the "CBS New York" (not "News") version of the logo. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11655-wcbs-cbs2-news/page/65/#findComment-305000 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey 869 Posted Monday at 11:18 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:18 PM Lonnie Quinn returned to WCBS and CBS this evening. He announced March 14th that he was taking several weeks off to recover from a concussion that was later determined to be a traumatic brain injury. He returned to the newsroom to applause, hugs, balloons and cake today: 2 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11655-wcbs-cbs2-news/page/65/#findComment-305313 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorningNews 1467 Posted yesterday at 12:00 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:00 AM Geez Lonnie has been there for 18 years? Time has flown.

TheRolyPoly 2478 Posted yesterday at 02:19 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:19 AM Jeez... 18 years?! I remember when he was my morning man at TVJ! Ironically, it was his last spot before landing at WCBS. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11655-wcbs-cbs2-news/page/65/#findComment-305319 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NY_Viewer 1 Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago There was a piece of me who really appreciates seeing Craig Allen on CBS 2, and I was surprisingly getting used to Rob Marciano. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11655-wcbs-cbs2-news/page/65/#findComment-305355 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYNewsCoverage 300 Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago As of this week, Lonnie is back for the 5pm and Evening news, but it seems Vanessa is covering the 6pm/11pm. It could be to ease back into work, and we'll see if Lonnie returns to the 11pm at any point, but I could see this change being permanent. Craig Allen it seems will fill in Vanessa's weekend slots (also glad he has a somewhat regular television gig now!) 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11655-wcbs-cbs2-news/page/65/#findComment-305359 Share on other sites More sharing options...
