ABC: Good Morning America is live in all time zones, will continue as a Special Report at 9am on the east coast and in the central time zone. CBS: CTM has been commercial or local break free and will also continue as a Special Report when it ends in the Eastern and central time zones. FOX: Coverage is being anchored by Fox News Channel's Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade and Ainsley Earhardt. Level 2, which means some stations are carrying coverage while others may pass.

jrh1985 56 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 What time does George get in usually? He was on before 4:30 AM CDT. Or was he there all night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColDayNews 437 Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 What time does George get in usually? He was on before 4:30 AM CDT. Or was he there all night? A few yrs ago, during the Boston manhunt, ABC News broke in at 4am EDT for the first news conference with George. World News This Morning was preempted. George tends to get in at 4am to prep for GMA.

Jess 1110 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 For local coverage... KTNV has their live coverage auto-streaming on their front page at ktnv.com. KSNV is live at http://news3lv.com/live. KLAS is not live. KVVU is live at http://www.fox5vegas.com/category/214173/fox5newslive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertNewsGeek 47 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 That's a major disappointment for KLAS, and a blown opportunity for Nexstar to provide coverage to Las Vegas viewers and its other stations. I wish another company had bought KLAS instead of Nexstar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bsean 138 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I'm watching KTLA and they have sent two reporters to Vegas. It's been continuing coverage and it's pretty good coverage for not being a Vegas station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been continuing coverage and it's pretty good coverage for not being a Vegas station. Also helps that Vegas is a short drive from LA. Kinda like Chicago stations sending reporters down to St. Louis to cover breaking news there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been continuing coverage and it's pretty good coverage for not being a Vegas station. Actually three reporters: Chip Yost at the convention center, Mark Mester at one of the hospitals, and Christina Pascucci on the strip. It does make sense as there were multiple So Cal victims. Wonder what the other LA stations are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eat News 4738 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Also helps that Vegas is a short drive from LA. Kinda like Chicago stations sending reporters down to St. Louis to cover breaking news there. It helped that there were already a ton of news assets in Las Vegas because of the O.J. story. PACSAT had at least 4 sat trucks already staged...and more were on the way. MSNBC had a crew(s) in the Hotel 2 floors above the shooters floor...in town for OJ.

hmaxhanson 650 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 This is absolutely tragic. Me and my Dad took a roadtrip from FL to Vegas about two months ago for my Dad's birthday and to write a book based on our travels. We stayed at the Circus Circus, which is about 5 miles north of the shooting. At the end of the their coverage, George S. mentioned that ABC will be airing a 1-hour edition of World News Tonight later this evening, are the other networks doing the same?

DonDonP1 113 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Hello, everyone. Here in Seattle, KING 5 and KONG began simulcasting NBC's breaking news coverage of a period of silence in remembrance of the victims of the Las Vegas Shooting. <period of silence> Lest we forget. Now, the post-silence commentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColDayNews 437 Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 well here's the weird part about FOX. on local Fox feeds Shepard smith was on, but on FNC they had someone else on. Fox News has a policy of not simulcasting opinion programming unless there are extraordinary circumstances. During the Boston manhunt, Fox News simulcasted The O'Reilly Factor on FNC and local stations because it was not safe for Shepard Smith to anchor separate coverage from the scene where police and the suspect were shooting at each other.

Well, George is indeed ABC's Chief Breaking News Anchor, a job orginally doubled by a nightly news anchor, in addition to co-anchoring GMA and This Week.
