This could have been a staffing/covid or studio issue, OR perhaps they're thinking of adding CBSEN after the first half hour instead of replaying it.

NYPhillynews 103 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 The revolving door continues at CBS 3. That station is used as a pit stop for Anchors/Reporters headed to National or NY, LA, Chicago. Not saying that’s the case with Lauren, but there are a lot of KYW alumni on National Networks. 7 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13098-the-cbs-3-eyewitness-news-thread/page/32/#findComment-273533 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCAU has had some guy in Dallas doing the weather weekend mornings while Krystal is filling in on weekday evenings for Brittney who is on maternity leave. Honestly surprised they just don’t have their NYC station meteorologists fill in as they are the closest. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13098-the-cbs-3-eyewitness-news-thread/page/32/#findComment-273554 Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was also a high up staffer at KYW back during their News Tonight era in the early 90s. It's a good hire as she knows the market inside and out so she can at the very least make the station watchable again. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13098-the-cbs-3-eyewitness-news-thread/page/32/#findComment-275053 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Action Newsroom 1263 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 (edited) As featured in this article from NewscastStudio, there were plans to transition the weather segment branding from 'Eyewitness Weather' to the "Next Weather" branding currently used at WFOR, WBZ and WCCO in the near future, but they were put on hold due to the hiring of Kathy Gerrow as news director. "NewscastStudio sources say that KYW in Philadelphia was also preparing to switch to “Next Weather” as well, but a recent news director hire may have put a halt or pause on those plans" Also in the article is this tidbit about the new set: "KYW is also anchoring from a temporary location as a new set is installed in its primary studio, but that debut may be delayed as leadership changes."

The set has been under construction for awhile now and Kathy's been in the position on an interim basis for much of that time. I'm pretty sure she signed off on it. That said, with as much as the station is bleeding money, I doubt they'd rip out a set this close to the finish line. 3 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13098-the-cbs-3-eyewitness-news-thread/page/32/#findComment-275166 Share on other sites More sharing options...
