Andrew2016 2 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Shepard Smith just reported that there is a serious bus accident in that area? Are they covering both incidents right now? KTVU did 2 news briefs at 3:30 & 4 and then went back to FNC simulcast pre-empting the 4pm newscast. KTVU went back to local news at 5PMPT EDIT: As of 5:18PM PT, KTVU is back to the FNC Simulcast and I assume they will be going back and forth.

jrh1985 56 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 David did WNT then at 6:30 Milwaukee time, George did a Special Report. Was David getting ready for 20/20 already? I know George's the chief anchor and maybe the events play a part of who goes on, but it would be nice to give David a few Special Reports since he is the face of WNT now.

I know George's the chief anchor and maybe the events play a part of who goes on, but it would be nice to give David a few Special Reports since he is the face of WNT now. I thought it's been mentioned before on here that David doesn't do Special Reports. Not sure if that's his decision or it's something network executives decided on.

News 9 Viewer 100 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 My thoughts and prayers go out to the people of France. I can't begin to comprehend the shock and horror they surely feel right now. Two terror attacks in a single year. Unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColDayNews 437 Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 UPDATE: Still regular programming on big three, Fox continuing FNC simulcast with Megyn Kelly. Shep handed over the coverage to Kelly for her normal hour, perhaps he'll be back in Hannity's hour and will wrap-up at 11? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ns8401 846 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 ABC ran a special report from 730-8pm tonight... WXYZ preempted The List for it.. I don't know if lots of other ABC affiliates picked it up... WDIV aired Jeopardy! At that time which leads me to believe NBC didn't do the same...

24994J 5276 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Nothing right now on the big three because one is in rolling coverage on their streaming service, and the other two are prepping for live coverage at the top of the hour, preempting their newsmagazines. The regular hosts of Dateline and 20/20 will anchor, and yes, that means Muir and Vargas, and not Stephanopoulos.

johnnya2k6 171 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Here in Atlanta, WSB and WAGA preempted World News/Entertainment Tonight (the latter's only airing; the late night repeats ended last year) and Dish Nation/TMZ (initial airings) for their respective ABC coverage and FNC simulcast at the 7:00 hour before hitting to primetime programming. WGCL did updates during the first commercial breaks of Amazing Race and Hawaii Five-0 only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkolsen 1678 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 For some reason my NBC station aired Nightly News at its regular time and then at 7PM re broadcast the same episode (the time stamps gave it away). I wonder if they were expecting a full hour of NN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColDayNews 437 Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 FNC simulcast has been dropped on most if not all Fox stations. Shep is anchoring the 11pm hour in place of O'reilly. The coverage is being simulcast on Fox Business Network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ns8401 846 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I'm gonna float this out there as being one of the more lengthy late newscast coverages of the attacks tonight... 18 minutes of coverage on WXYZ's 11pm broken up by 1 :90 second break at 1113... They used the same red logo for their continuing coverage that 2020 was using... then weather, sports, a 60 second hit on the attacks and they said good night. There was literally not one other news story on that entire newscast. WDIV and WJBK went away sometime before their first breaks... Their loss I suppose. There was a gripping amount of information to share... WXYZ even got an interview between one of their anchors and a Frenchman who lived 2 blocks away and had family in the soccer stadium...

24994J 5276 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 What's the latest policies on profanity with the FCC? A lady/victim being interviewed live on 20/20 let out an f-bomb while paraphrasing a conversation. She immediately corrected herself and apologized, as did Elizabeth Vargas at the end of the interview. Does the network still get penalized? I thought there's some kind of exemption for that.

I think that qualifies as a fleeting expletive... I don't think you can be penalized for it. Helping the cause is the fact that the woman corrected herself...

Darius22 120 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 KCRA waited until 5PM to show their coverage. KOVR Was the first to catch it with some Technical difficulties. KXTV Cut off ellen for the coverage and switched Straight to the ABC News Feed KTXL was also late for the coverage and had to wait until 5PM also. KQCA wasnt able to show a ticker or KCRA at all Due to Maury Still being on. KUVS was right on track at least. on another note KOVR had this issue Switching to the CBS News Feed which apparently tried to Switch to their sister station WCBS: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBAL turned to a generic live hit from News Channel a little early and got the the audio of Steve Handelsman talking to his producers. After the producers at WBAL realized it would be a few more seconds before he would start talking they rolled the prefed package. I can't tell because the bug was in the way but I'm guessing he was going to start talking at 11:01. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
