Newscenter5WCVB 29 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Sorry for being purposely vague. But as you all can see now, WUSA will be hosting the CBS Evening News this weekend anchored by none other than Lesli Foster.

I still hope Seattle's KIRO 7 would be next to have one of its anchors step in. Likewise, Oklahoma's Own News 9, KWTV in my beautiful native Oklahoma City. Fingers crossed.

LVForward 94 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I think it would be fun to see KYW's medical reporter Stephanie Stahl anchor. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14533-cbs-evening-news/page/17/#findComment-244357 Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5552 Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 Hey y'all, how about we just wait and see who handles the show in the coming weeks. No need for wish lists of stations and anchors. 2 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14533-cbs-evening-news/page/17/#findComment-244358 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrogo 196 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 It will be interesting to see how CBS does weekends after all of this is over. Hopefully they’ll move the weekend news into the CBS “news hub” (formerly studio 47) it looks great on tv and worked much better than the cluttered, odd studio 57 newsroom set. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14533-cbs-evening-news/page/17/#findComment-244393 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenneth Kissel 280 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Any Word which local station is doing the CBS Weekend News this weekend? Still hoping for KDKA-TV.

ScottJ 134 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 It'll be WTTV (Indianapolis) this weekend, with Debby Knox anchoring on Saturday and Bob Donaldson Sunday.

justin2kx 237 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) Beat me to it ScottJ, but yes. I'm sorry, i know this was born out of necessity, but much to the chagrin (or probably not) of Reena Ninan + Elaine Quijano, it's gotta continue even when we head toward a (new) normalcy. It's been fun. Edited May 7, 2020 by justin2kx Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14533-cbs-evening-news/page/17/#findComment-244935 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenShine9 1512 Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) I wonder who does it next weekend? If I got to choose, I'd give it to WOIO or WBTV, followed by WTVF, so other owners get a shot too. Of the top 30 markets: 14 are O&O's and 4 are owned by Tegna, 3 by Meredith, 3 by Nexstar, 2 by Gray, 1 by Cox , 1 by Scripps, 1 by Sinclair and 1 by Graham.

Technically A Director 164 Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I have to say, I was surprised to see WTTV hosting today. Indianapolis never struck me as a station that CBS would want (or was capable) of hosting. Good on them! 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14533-cbs-evening-news/page/17/#findComment-245044 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadrunner 216 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Portland, Oregon's KOIN 6 anchor Jeff Gianola will take over this weekend. --- Also, a bit about the locations conundrum- after watching CBS's weekend newscasts from KIRO and WTTV, I noticed that these locations seemed to play a small part in their newscasts. For example (just to name a few), KIRO's newscasts included a short segment on Seattle being the former epicenter of the virus in the US and how it had progressed thus far, and WTTV's newscasts included a short segment on Eli Lilly and its pharmaceutical developments for the virus. I don't know if these are just consequential of the fact that newscasts were being broadcast from there or if these stations were chosen to broadcast, with the desire to emphasize these developments in the national newscast.

I wonder how the anchors get chosen. CBS or station's choice? BTW, does anyone know how the production actually happens? Does CBS staff produce the show remotely and then send the content (video/graphics/script) to the local station to load into their system and then produce out of their control room? Or is just a studio camera feed from the station sent to a CBS control room and then the show is assembled there?

To answer one of your questions, CBS wants one of the selected station's weeknight anchors to work the Weekend News.

TSSZNews 1051 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) The tech bug hit CBS tonight - Evening News didn’t start on time. Loop of CBS promos in its place currently.

Technically A Director 164 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) Can confirm, CBS is having major issues. We joined at the normal time and they were in a crash loop of promos. They cut to CBSN after about 5 minutes and are in a CBSN commercial now. Update: CBS Newspath reports the Washington control room is experiencing technical difficulties. Yowza.

(Usually my O&O airs a local ad or - as of recently - ads from St. Jude.) I was 100% sure when another network promo aired immediately after. Hopefully, everything is fixed real soon.
