Thundershock MN 169 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 WCCO launched a 9am newscast, WCCO Mid-Morning, this past Monday. The format is mostly "fluff" and roundtable discussion of the days "talkers" coupled with the days headlines and weather. It's hosted by Jason DeRusha and Kylie Bearse. And, they will be joined by 2 members of WCCO's on-air staff rotating daily. WCCO Mid-Morning replaces The Queen Latifah Show which ceased airing new episodes earlier in March. I wouldn't be shocked if the concept expands to other CBS O&O's and WCCO is being used as the test bed. I wonder if it's going to be similar in concept to KDKA's Pittsburgh Today Live? If so, then WCCO might have a hit unless the Today Show on KARE and Live on KSTP get really good ratings. It's hard to explain to someone that hasn't seen either show. But, it's kind of a clone of KMSP's The Buzz that airs in the same slot. The big difference being KMSP is heavy on the gossip/pop culture/entertainment news while WCCO has swapped that out for more lifestyle/human interest news. Otherwise, they both very similar both having a panel discussing a few "big" stories, reporting the headlines at :00 & :30, and a forecast or two mixed in. Looking at videos on KDKA's site it is similar in some ways to WCCO's new show but, I'd still say it's a different concept. Notice the mistakes. You said 9pm and 10pm. And KSTP shortening its hour-long 10:00 p.m. weeknight newscast? Ah shucks. That was probably the best thing of KSTP's 10pm news, considering it was an hour-long, compared to WCCO, KMSP and KARE. Whoops. Thanks for pointing that out. On the plus side we finally get Jimmy Kimmel Live in HD as well. KSTP didn't/doesn't have the ability to tape delay in HD. So, all these years we've had JKL in all it's SD widescreen glory. You would be incorrect as WFAA broke their ties with KFWD nearly three years ago... http://unclebarky.com/dfw_files/ab790f08e973743a111e39b6fba1707e-2436.html Ugh, somehow I think I knew that. Hence, why I'd didn't reference it in those original posts I linked to. But, for whatever reason that JSA popped back into my head. I stand corrected...thanks for correcting my error. And, another small nugget from the Twin Cities market. KMSP is testing a news news/talk show called Friday nights @ 9:30pm. The link is to the first episode but, the best way I can describe it is basically a news/talk radio show adapted to TV. It's "hosted" by two talk radio hosts who discuss/debate the weeks "big" news stories. The EP appears on screen acting as a moderator of sorts telling them when to move on and giving them a new discussion topic. I believe it's getting a six episode test. Not horribly surprising as KMSP has been testing all sorts of half-hour "newsy" programs over the last year from "The Reporters" to "Game Day" to "The Goods" and now "Enough Said".

Wouldn't be surprised if more viewers tune to KSTC at 9pm or if that broadcast becomes #1 because of this program.

JoseRM303 171 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Kristyn Caddell most famous for having the affair with former NBC Dateline reporter Chris Hansen out at WFTV: http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/reporter-kristyn-caddell-out-at-wftv/146113 My opinion she since hasn't had much luck in the past 4 or 5 large markets she's worked at perhaps she should go work for low market station such as something in Missoula Montana then work here way up.
ns8401 955 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 WXYZ has named Heather Catallo as co-anchor for "7 Action News At 10 On TV20 Detroit" effective tomorrow. She replaces Malcom Maddox who moved to mornings on April 6th.
LTSC1980 114 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 From WFMZ thread: Not really related to 69 News, but WFMZ aired a syndicated morning talk/entertainment show from 9-10AM called "The Daily Buzz". It was in 150-some markets around the country and was canceled Friday--not because of ratings, but because an investor pulled out. It was on for 13 years. WFMZ is now airing some more judge/court shows in its place. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment/tv/tv-guy/os-daily-buzz-canceled-20150417-post.html As the morning show that have once aired in The CW Plus and Soul of the South Network, it's really surprising. 1
TheRolyPoly 2559 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 As the morning show that have once aired in The CW Plus and Soul of the South Network, it's really surprising. Not surprising to me. They have been falling in the ratings for years now and has never be the same show, since the original cast left with Andrea, Ron, Dao, Mitch, Kia, etc.
TexasTVNews 1378 Posted April 20, 2015 Author Posted April 20, 2015 WFAA is losing a familiar face, Meteorologist Julie Bologna has left WFAA-TV (Or as Ed Bark calls it Gannett8). Bologna's last day was April 12th of last Sunday after three years working at News 8. As many of you already know, Julie worked at KTVT at morning meteorologist before returning to her hometown of Pittsburgh, PA to rejoin WPXI when she was Chief Meteorologist. http://www.unclebarky.com/dfw_files/c9d9b11c3b25fd557135faa2e809c88b-3367.html

Elbert Tucker moving over to Indy to head the news division at WISH-TV. This is a pretty big get for WISH. WBNS is competitor and powerhouse WTHR's sister station. Clearly, Tucker knows his stuff as it reflects in WBNS's ratings success.

TVNewsLover 785 Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 My prediction... Jim Handly at 11PM I can see that or Chris Lawrence. If Jim does get the 11PM, I see some other shuffling happening (possibly with the 4PM).

Its the combination of WSHM-LD 3 (CBS 3) and WGGB 40.1/40.2 (ABC 40 and FOX 6, respectively). This is after WSHM's owners at Meredith bought WGGB from Gormally.

TexasTVNews, you are correct. According to WTOP, Jim Handly will take over the 11PM and will still do the 5PM News. http://wtop.com/local/2015/04/vance-staying-with-nbc-washington-but-wont-co-anchor-11-p-m-news/

Chris Lawrence gets 4pm, and Erika Gonzalez takes over weekend evenings. Chris will probably take over the 6pm once Jim retires in 2017.
Samantha 2898 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 On Monday, WSHM and WGGB merged their news operations into "Western Mass News".
