brianpr3 178 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Kristen Nicole is the name that you're looking for. Maybe she takes over for Anita (who then goes back to just reporting) or Kristen goes back to GDC Weekends where she started when she came to WFLD. They needed another guy on the mornings and Anthony is a solid pick. Kriste is going night side per her ig post Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-199705 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 1047 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Kriste is going night side per her ig post I’m assuming to work the ‘Live Desk’ @ 5 and report @ 9P?? Guess we have to wait and see on Monday. I wonder if she’ll bump Sylvia as #2 (Dawn’s backup). If so, I’m not liking that idea. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-199734 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago News Boy 34 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Whenever Kaitlin Cody does the weather, I cringe... she talks to viewers like they are 2 years old. Between the hand gestures and baby talk, cringe! Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-200103 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherandTraffic 54 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 She's basically Cheryl Scott's twin sister, which she also talks to viewers like they are 2 year olds. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-200124 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, but like a little sister. I think she’s even a little worse.

24994J 5569 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Yes, she is. It's remarkable. Maybe it's the surrounding talent, but Cheryl actually has a wider range of emotion. Kaitlin seems to have only two deliveries: 75 degrees and sunshine and rainbows, or 200 degrees and raining hellfire doom.

Kaitlin seems to have only two deliveries: 75 degrees and sunshine and rainbows, or 200 degrees and raining hellfire doom. Agreed! I’m not sure where they found her! But her delivery is cringing; and, she should not be the primary fill-in for Bill. I’d prefer Strehl. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-200312 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago News Boy 34 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Linda Yu will be reunited with Sylvia Perez this Friday on GDC. 32 aired a promotional video on it. She will be taking about her future plans. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-201254 Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 5569 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I debated on which station thread to put this in. They nearly switched places, because they also know that this seating arrangement just isn't right. They did an interview and cooking segment, in addition to talking about Linda's new show, and they haven't missed a beat. They should've had Caplan do the weather. He was on the panel at 9am. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-201440 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could've done without the discussion of the Kardashians, but I guess that's the nature of that hour. 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-201493 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Russell 25 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Since no one has brought this up I think WGN is in trouble. FOX 32 tied WGN adults 25 to 54 at 9pm. Every time I watch they get better am better. Call me crazy I think there the best late news in Chicago. You could argue 7 but I think there targeting a different crowd Rob and Ikria ( I know I spelled her name wrong) are just so boring. I don’t like the new guy on WGN. Rob and Allison don’t have that same chemistry that they use to. 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-204846 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago News Boy 34 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Dawn and Corey at 9 p.m. are a solid and authentic team! They have genuine chemistry and are strong, knowledgeable members of their field. The news is relevant, they’ve added some amazing talent (Rafer, etc.). Fox is definitely back. Props to Herndon too, bc he did a fantastic job while he was at WFLD.

24994J 5569 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 They went away from the Sirott news format years ago and the traditional Fox tone since then, got some established veteran talent, and got a new set, and it's given them the quality and credibility they've desperately needed. We had been campaigning for moves like that for half a decade. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-204900 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 1047 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 So y'all saying that WFLD is back in the game? Say it ain't so. They have been making smarter decisions over the past few years coupled with the fact that they have weathered the loss of key people (Herndon, Wall, Smith, etc..) better than in the past. Even the addition of the Good Day After Show (on Facebook) has been a plus in my book.

Jase 1047 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 The 4-6A hours are now branded as 'Good Day Wake Up' with the 6-10A hours remaining under the 'Good Day Chicago' banner. My guess is that this change took place recently (within the past week or so).

speed053 37 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 I will check out their 5:00 evening newscast and the 9:00 evening newscast as well. I might tune in to see the morning news tomorrow on Fox 32, just in case if they start using Beyond on the other newscasts. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14121-random-wfld-thread/page/23/#findComment-213114 Share on other sites More sharing options...
