nynewslover 269 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Ben and Christina were excellent together on Thursday night. Ben was with Allison on Friday night. They actually weren't too bad together. I don't know why but I think changes are being planned/tested. It's weird that all of a sudden they have him on at night, usually they would have Allison and Christina or one of the other reporters. Interesting to see what might happen.

JoseRM303 169 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Maybe Ben could do the 5 pm with Dari, Steve move back to the 6 and do the 10 with Dari, and Ernie well idk what would happen if Steve went back to 6. But who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to see what might happen. I totally agree, I think changes are being planned/tested. I could definitely see Antwan moving back to Good Day Wake Up, it seems as though everyone there loves him (however, it also seems like everyone loves Ben as well) All I know is if there are changes, Christina better have in increased role. Based on time, merit, performance, longevity.... she deserves it!!! (obviously I am a huge supporter) especially over Alison. What I would love (minus Alison - I'd rather see Priolo there) to see happen, and I honestly could see it happening... GDWU/GDEC: Juliet Huddy/Antwan Lewis GDNY: Rosanna Scotto/Greg Kelly - I think they have learned not to touch this one (; 5PM: Dari Alexander/Steve Lacy 6PM: Christina Park 10PM: Dari Alexander/Steve Lacy Weekend: Ben Simmoneau/Alison Morris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way they go from 3 current weeknight anchors to 5. I wonder if they're toying with adding any newscasts (weekend mornings or 11pm)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BehindNYNews 143 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Actually that looks less likely. No way they go from 3 current weeknight anchors to 5. I wonder if they're toying with adding any newscasts (weekend mornings or 11pm)? Agreed. Steve and Dari are basically the brand for Fox 5 as Rossana and Greg are in the Morning. Adding more pairs just confuses the brand. And with the recent ratings success of Fox 5 News at 10pm, they would be very smart to add an 11pm newscast.

24994J 5276 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 then what would happen with the great Ernie they can't unceremoniously can him Yes they can. It's the media business. Veterans and legends get screwed all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BehindNYNews 143 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Yes they can. It's the media business. Veterans and legends get screwed all the time. And while Ernie is good, he isn't Bill Ritter, Jim Gardner or Ron Magers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nynewslover 269 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I like Ernie. It's just the 6pm show is not good. I watched it once or twice but at that time I want the news. Not a fluff show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianpr3 173 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 i know it's the business but would canning him have a "backlash" just cause of his name Ernie Anastos? and why did they take him off the 5 and 10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYNewsCoverage 257 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I like Ernie Anastos. And I think the viewers like him too, but I agree with nynewslover, I think he's better with real news rather than the fluff show he's on now. But I don't think giving him the boot would be the smart choice. But if they did, I think PIX could pick him up and team him up with Kaity Tong. But that's just pure speculation at this point. But on the 11pm newscast front, that's just too much news in my view. If there's breaking news, they can preempt the Big Bang Theory. If they want to add newscasts, they should try weekend mornings or 1pm or 12pm or heck, why not 2pm. Plus, if it's a slow news night, what would they do at 11pm? There are 3 major newscasts on at 11pm, no real reason for WNYW to join the crowd, if they already have a 10pm newscast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nynewslover 269 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Yeah an 11:00 would be a bit much.. Just wish they'd focus on harder news at 10pm and less human interest. A weekend morning would be the best bet at this time.. Especially if it's like Good Day.. Besides 7 the other stations are a snooze fest on Saturday and Sunday (nothing against the anchors) they could be more lively tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceManNYR 222 Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 FOX5 is now using the news scroll area for school closings so the video stays full screen. Wish WNBC would do the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchorman 93 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Meteorologist Samantha Augeri from News12 Long Island is heading to WNYW as a weather producer and fill-in meteorologist. She was the weekend morning meteorologist as well as the weather producer and primary weekday fill-in at N12LI. Good pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox5fan 17 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Fox 5 is back to using their old website handle... They have gone back to fox5ny.com from myfoxny.com. The whole website has been updated as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nynewslover 269 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 The new website is very "tablet" like, even on the desktop version. I like it, it is an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bc485 81 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 The Fox 5 newsroom is being renovated, according to a tweet from Teresa Priolo this morning: https://twitter.com/fox5teresa/status/635066407437340672 [ATTACH]1582.IPB[/ATTACH] As you can see in the photo, the logo is the same one that appears on the new FOX5NY.com website (which is a combination of the older logo with the larger 5 that is still used in some graphics and in the studio, and the newer, simpler Fox 5 logo that appears as the bug during newscasts). I wonder if a new studio and/or graphics are close behind? The current look is a few years old now, and the studio is very dated, with very few updates since its debut in maybe 2006/2007.
