fox5fan 17 Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Anyone know where Don Dahler is going? Could he possibly be headed to WNYW for Good Day Early Call/Wake Up?
nynewslover 281 Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Dick Brennan anchored with Cindy Hsu this morning and Cindy's anchoring tonight with no mention of Don Dahler being off. It kind of looks like Don won't be back on the weekends one way or the other. In my opinion Dahler is probably leaving.. It's weird how he was on Monday and Tuesday then off Wednesday Thursday Friday and now for his regular shift.. So he's prob gone or getting ready to leave..
Geoffrey 876 Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Don's schedule was to anchor Saturday and Sunday morning and evening, then report Monday and Tuesday. I'm guessing he's off this weekend to fill-in on the morning and noon newscasts but the fact that they didn't mention him today makes me think he's not going back to weekends.
TellyGenic 33 Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Maybe they can move Dave Carlin over to the anchor desk. Before he came to NYC he was an anchor in San Diego and Honolulu. And he's filled in at the desk in the past - with Mary Calvi when she did weekends.
nynewslover 281 Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Seems like Don Dahler could be gone.. Chris Wragee was on once again this morning.
kshow 167 Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Seems like Don Dahler could be gone.. Chris Wragee was on once again this morning. And for the rest of the week...
cbs2idiots 24 Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Don Daher reporting the top story at 5pm today.
Daybreak 294 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Well I just saw a tweet with Chris saying "Chris Wragge @ChrisWragge Time for bed! 8:28pm #NewPersonalBest or worst depending on how you look at it. @CBSNewYork Live@ 4:30a-7am... Cannot wait for 2:40a alarm:( Expand Reply Retweet Favorite More" I wondering if they are thinking of making him the new Morning anchor
bc485 91 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Don Dahler is anchoring WLNY News at 9:00 p.m. with Dana Tyler this evening.
tvknowledge 5 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Posted February 26, 2013 Don has told colleagues he's out of channel 2 in about a month and moving up to CBS network news. Congratulations to Don. It opens the door to more speculation for seat fillers on the different newscasts

nynewslover 281 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 First of all Congratulations to Don..a well deserved promotion that he should've got a long time ago..WCBS was not fair to him at all...Now on to the anchor line ups..they now have at least two spots to fill...btw I think they would be smart if they took this time to hire at least another anchor for the weekend evening..Here is what it think the new line up should be.. **If they stay in house** Weekday Mornings/Noon: Chris Wragee and Mary Calvi 5pm: Stays the Same 6pm: Dick Brennan and Dana Tyler Weekend Mornings: Dave Carlin and Carolyn Gusoff Weekend Evenings: Lou Young or Pablo Guzman and Cindy Hsu *If they bring in at least one new person* Weekday AM/Noon: David Ushery (new) and Mary Calvi 5pm/11pm Stays the Same 6pm: Same as now Weekend Mornings: Dick Brennan and Carolyn Gusoff Weekend Evenings: Same as Suggestion above. What do you guys think? What are your opinions?
tvknowledge 5 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Posted February 26, 2013 Add this to your list of ideas. Alice Gainer from News 12 New Jersey has announced on facebook that she will be co anchoring CBS2 Sunday morning.

nynewsguy 66 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Why not move Wragge to AM/Noon, let Tyler solo at 6pm and team her with Richard Rose for 9PM on WLNY? As for weekends, give evenings to Hsu if she wants them. I don't think it matters much who anchors weekend AMs on WCBS.
BehindNYNews 147 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Add this to your list of ideas. Alice Gainer from News 12 New Jersey has announced on facebook that she will be co anchoring CBS2 Sunday morning. Just to clarify she will be filling in, she is not currently permanent.

anchorman 96 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Chris Wragge will not be the permanent AM anchor.
nynewslover 281 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 By the way.. Anyone see Ashley Morrison was back this morning.. She wasn't in studio but in a pre-recorded for CBS money watch..
JayR481 0 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Weekends will have only 2 anchors. If don leaves it will probably be Cindy hsu and dick Brennan on the weekend am with Cindy solo anchoring weekend pm. As another poster put it if they wanted to stay within move wragge to mornings and noon. Dana Tyler can solo at six (like channel 4 and 5) and bring Richard rise back to tv 55 to co anchor with Dana at 9pm.
jtgh922 18 Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I personally like the John Mueller pick. He's familiar to viewers and has morning experience. Anyone know if he is full time at ABC or just a freelancer? If CBS goes the "one bad apple spoils them all" route and blows up too many anchor pairings, I think it'll be devastating to their ratings. Replace Morrison and leave everyone else alone.

Replace Morrison and leave everyone else alone. Muller is permanent at ABC News; he is seen on virtually every ABC News production, especially World News Now and ABC News Now, the cable/internet channel. He's been over there since 2011, so essentially still getting his feet wet on a national platform. Not sure if he wants to go back to local just yet.

He's been over there since 2011, so essentially still getting his feet wet on a national platform. Not sure if he wants to go back to local just yet. John is featured often on World News Now and GMA. He fills in often of WNN, seems as though he's full time. He actually just gave a report on GMA right now.
nynewslover 281 Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Apparently Chris Wragee is anchoring the noon this week? Mary Calvi has been doing that solo since the whole thing started..I think its safe to say he's the top candidate for the morning/noon spot..
bc485 91 Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Let's add more fuel to the fire... the Post claims that Cindy Hsu is now the frontrunner to replace Rob: http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/tv/if_the_hsu_fits_J6v0k1LSKm2OO1TbnYujXJ
