Guest wxman2106 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 WOW..what a turn around. Cioffi is not finished. He appears to be going to WNBC-4. TVspy is saying he could be warming up to take Sally-Ann mosley's spot. IMO shes horrible. Should have stayed in Philly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYNews 54 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 That's good news for Joe. So Linda is moving to the weekends, but when? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watsgood 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Mosey is horrible. Please don't wish her back on Philly. But she's only been there a year. Doesn't she have a contract? Do you think they'd move her to evenings or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wxman2106 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 From what i am hearing she's only a freelancer. Her picture doesn't show up on the website. Same situation happened with Joe, not known by many he was a freelancer for 11 years and his picture would not show up on the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistroh 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Actually, I'd prefer Joe replace John Marshall, who, IMO, has always been small-market material. How he got weekends in NY is beyond me. He mumbles and slurs a mile a minute through his heavy NY accent and I often can't make out a word he's saying. Good luck Joe C! It's YOUR turn...

IceManNYR 223 Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv/2007/06/08/2007-06-08_rosato_stokes_ch7_viewers.html Changing climes Joe Cioffi won't be without a weathercasting job for long. Cioffi, weekend weatherman for WPIX/ Ch.11, will jump to WNBC/Ch. 4 as a freelancer when his Ch. 11 contract expires later this month. Cioffi was left without a spot at Ch.11 when morning weathercaster Linda Church told station execs she wanted to leave when her contract was up. In an effort to keep her, Ch. 11 brass dangled Cioffi's job, which, at the time, he was still in. A Ch.4 spokeswoman confirmed Cioffi will join the station as a backup next month. Cioffi has been with Ch.11 since 1996. As for Ch.11, no word on a replacement for Church or when she'll make a move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canitgetanyworse 0 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Good for Joe. As I mentioned in another thread, I believe he debuts on NBC4 this weekend. That leads me to believe Sally Ann may not be freelancing for them much longer since she usually filled in for John Marshall. So depending on what your definition is of a meteorologist (education, training, AMS Seal etc) that means that this market is finally getting some good weekend forecasting again. With the exception of Vanessa on 9 or ??? on 11 2- Elise Finch 4- Joe Cioffi 5- Craig Allen 7- Heidi Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwertheim 1 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 So Joe Cioffi will become the weekend morning person? Perhaps Mosey should go to channel 2 as a weekend evening person to relieve Elise Finch who does the whole weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBS2HD 1 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I doubt that. WCBS is actually hiring people with talent these days and i think they're content with the team the have now. Plus, Mosey is not #1 market material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying that you believe Joe will be filling in when Marshall's off (w/Mosey still a.m.)? Or Joe permanent in the a.m. and Mosey taking Marshall's slot?

Good point, but i was really referring to the weather dept. Caruthers was just freelancing, but they fixed that problem with Finch. I think Quinn and Finch are great hires and they have certainly proved themselves that they belong in a #1 market. Mosey like Caruthers seems too shaky on camera. Although, Caruthers seems much more comfortable on WWOR than she was on WNBC or WCBS, i dare say she seems better than Puente. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wxman2106 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 im sorry..what are you talking about. First off Carothers belongs in billings montana broadcasting to farm animals. She's old and doesn't know what shes talking about. Quinn is horrible with the camera and even after the daily news article came out he continues to be unchanged. As for mosley..Her brady bunch routine is very annoying.."Just give us our damn forecast already and stop sugar coating it" What im getting at is WNBC has an amazing dynamic weather team with Huff (who worked under Al Rocker, Joe Witte which are the best forecasters i know of) Cimino which is very brilliant with a certain balance of conservativness and Marshell who earned a good rep in the city. If you throw Cioffi in the mix you have an all star weather team. Remember..This city being market 1 should have overall experience and not so much looks. These people should not only know NYC weather but know the entire country's weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These people should not only know NYC weather but know the entire country's weather. Agree w/the above, except: Are you impying that Mosey is there on her looks? She's just as old as Caruthers. She has had a bunch of work done. If you'd seen her over the past few years (b4 surgery fix-ups), you'd pass out. Most assume that people are on tv based on their looks or talent. Mosey has never had either. She is completely inept. I think Huff, and Cimino are great. Not impressed w/Quinn. Slightly off topic, is Bolaris staying at 2?

Guest wxman2106 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 ch 2 would be dumb to get rid of bolaris IMO. Hes getting better and better in this market. Whatever he is outside of the TV box is his and his coworkers problems but viewer speaking; he is a very good broadcaster and meteorologist...Back to SallyANN..i believe the amount of work done to her. She doesn't look like she did back at PVI. She got in at a time NBC needed her due to Joe Morano's issue falling and taking a leave. Someone needs to find out whether shes freelancing or not! My bet is she is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyfla 196 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Sally Ann Mosey is definitely not freelancing. She was at WPVI for 8 years and I believe she was looking for a job in NYC and took whatever job she could get and that is how she went from Weekend Evenings at WPVI to Weekend TINY on WNBC. WPVI is known for finding talent (mostly great talent) and keeping them for as long they like to stay. I didn't find her horrible on WPVI, I actually liked her but she may be different at WNBC. I might see how she is this Fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
