C Block 1566 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Wouldn't be surprising. She's pretty much the only dinosaur left who hasn't taken a buyout. But I guess even if she isn't on TV, she'll always be there to tell you that YOU are delaying the departure of THIS train. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/201/#findComment-163479 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess even if she isn't on TV, she'll always be there to tell you that YOU are delaying the departure of THIS train. Or a Dinosaur who in Gannett/TEGNA fold that hasn't been apart of the mass cutting. Brenda Wood at WXIA said she leaving on her own, but you have to wonder. Andrea Roane, Bruce Johnson, Topper Shutt have been mainstays at W*USA will they'll get the boot? Another Jeannie Blaylock, Ken Amaro & Tim Deegan another mainstay at Channel 12 in Jacksonville, It seems that TEGNA wants young and cheaper and pre-TEGNA you had alot of strong iconic anchors in those markets placed well with big salaries. Now, you if you can get them a fraction of the cost all is well. Also Sandra Hughes returns to WFMY Channel 2 in Greensboro.

LTSC1980 112 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Okay. We all heard last week that WSBT will be producing WNWO's newscasts. Now FTVLive posted this morning that Scranton's WOLF's Sinclair-produced newscast could also be produced out of WSBT. _______________________________________________ Follow-up regarding WWL's morning show 7-9am switch to WUPL this morning. On the promo it hinted a brand new look. Well, believe it or not, their brand new look is their brand new morning SET!!! [MEDIA=twitter]805755481436332032[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]805764475194380288[/MEDIA] And the vid below is WWL's first tease of CBS This Morning during the Eyewitness Morning News. [MEDIA=vimeo]194349170[/MEDIA] Isn't WOLF's newscast produced by WBRE?

Samantha 2895 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Isn't WOLF's newscast produced by WBRE? WOLF is breaking from the arrangement and placed ads in various publications in October advertising positions for a news operation.

Now, you if you can get them a fraction of the cost all is well. KYTX has sure gone the cheapie-cheap/whos-that route at 6 & 10. Not the way to go up against KLTV, I'm afraid. Meanwhile, at least WFAA isn't quite that bad, but oh has there been the revolving door there since the sale (not that the other north TX news stations haven't had their own dizzying amounts of talent changes lately). 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/201/#findComment-163535 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasTVNews 1377 Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 I don't know what's going on at WFAA, but the revolving doors keeps on coming. The DFW's ABC station has dumped weekend meteorologist Wes Houx and replacing him with Kyle Roberts from KOKH (FOX) OKC. TEGNA8 also hired Jesse Hawaila to replace wekkend PM meteorologist Ashton Altieri who left the station in August to work at KCNC (CBS) Denver. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/wfaa-swaps-weekend-meteorologists/182666 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/201/#findComment-163548 Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhratbrat 437 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 KHOU 11 seems have changed as well too, and it the ratings seem to have fallen as well too. KHOU's changes were very radical considering with the new news director from KGW installing hubby as lead AM anchor with Lisa Hernandez and then bumping Greg Hurst off of the 10P for Mia Gradney and Len Cannon. ITs bad when the only stable newscast is your noon newscast. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/201/#findComment-163675 Share on other sites More sharing options...
