Newscenter5WCVB 29 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Here in Chicago everyone is airing network SRs except WBBM and WGN. WBBM is airing Judge Judy and WGN is covering the situation locally. NBC Nightly News is expanding to an hour for the Eastern and Central time zones.

Glimmer 240 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 In Milwaukee WITI and WISN are with network special reports while WTMJ is airing their 4:30 newscasts and WDJT is bouncing between local news and CBS News. All four stations are now on local news; WISN was the last to leave network at 5:02pm. Apparently ABC affiliates have been notified that rolling news will likely go on until 8pm/7c.

The Frog 396 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Coverage in Dallas: KDFW/FOX: Simulcast of FNC anchored by Shep Smith WFAA/ABC: Special Report anchored by George or David KXAS/NBC: Special Report anchored by Lester Holt KTVT/CBS: Special Report anchored by Scott Pelley KTVT went to local news. WFAA, KXAS, and KDFW are sticking with their respective networks. Shep mentioned they are at 'Level 2' and that Fox stations had been wanting to pull away but elected to stick with the FNC simulcast. EDIT: KDFW pulled away from FNC at top of the 5PM hour for local coverage. WFAA has followed suit. KXAS is staying with NBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jterry 43 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 CBS ended coverage at 5:20, FOX ended its Level 2 coverage and threw to Special Report at 6 for FNC. NBC and ABC are continuing special reports into the 6 PM hour for stations not in local news. All three networks are going to hour-long evening newscasts tonight, as well.

nynewslover 269 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 All three nightly newscasts will be a full hour tonight. I know this takes a backseat when something like this happens.. But NBC here in NY (and east coast zones) has the Rockefeller Center Tree Lighting at 7.. How's that gonna work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darius22 120 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Heres what happened In Sacramento. KCRA Was back and forth between their news and the NBC Special Report KXTV Was broadcasting the ABC Special Report KOVR Was in a CBS Special Report KUVS Was in a Special Report as well KCSO Was In a Special Report KMAX did not cover anything due to bill cunningham KTXL Used Fox News Channel KQCA did not cover anything due to Jerry Springer. pretty much almost everyone was on about this including the cable networks also. even Local Cable News Stations like TWC News NY1, News 12 Long Island and Verizon Fios 1.

But NBC here in NY (and east coast zones) has the Rockefeller Center Tree Lighting at 7.. How's that gonna work? If it takes place at 7, then the rest of the nation must get it on an hour delay at 8/7C, no? If so, and if the whole ordeal is being partially resolved right now, might the New York market just get the national program and not the local angle?

24994J 5287 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 ABC is going solid with KABC for a few minutes as George exits and David takes the desk. Lester and Scott are already on the air, though I don't know how they'll transition to the evening newscasts, or if they'll just brand as the special report.

Jterry 43 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 All three went into evening newscast mode, but ABC went essentially straight back to KABC coverage. CBS and NBC after a few moments went into a taped report which seems a bit odd given the live events unfolding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not uncommon for the networks to start fresh with the details and give a nice round-up the events for those just tuning in. If it's a taped piece, so be it.

If so, and if the whole ordeal is being partially resolved right now, might the New York market just get the national program and not the local angle? If I understand correctly, WNBC airs a local hour from 7-8pm followed by the national hour at 8-9pm, essentially a preview show or extended coverage. My assumption is WNBC will go to their Special, considering the rest of the nation will still be getting NN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVNewsLover 730 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 NBC 10 here in Philly went to Christmas in Rockefeller Center at 7pm. The 7pm hour must be national. But they honestly should of stuck with news coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
