TriangleTriadMediaNews 267 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 DCRTV reports that WJLA/NC8's Bruce DePuyt will be leaving the station effecting Jan 31st. I honestly won't be surprised if other veteran on-air staff such as Doug Hill, Dave Lucas, Rich Reeve, Melanie Hastings, Suzanne Kennedy, etc leave or "retire" before 2017 is over.

Greggo 354 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 KVUE in Austin is flipping its female evening anchors: 5 p.m. anchor Quita Culpepper adds the 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. shows. Terri Gruca, current anchor of those 2 newscasts, will anchor at 5 p.m. only now, devoting the rest of her time to investigative reporting. The station is still -- almost a year later -- looking for a male co-anchor for evenings. http://tvradio.blog.austin360.com/2017/01/11/kvue-anchor-swap-terri-gruca-quita-culpepper-trading-spots/ Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/210/#findComment-165557 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkolsen 1684 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 So what did you guys think of the confirmation hearings Thursday. First a power cut blacked out the room and cameras when Russia was mentioned and then on the house floor c-span's online live feed was replaced with RT for 10 minutes.

C Block 1566 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I'm a little torn on all this reignited Russia spat. On one hand, a lot of it seems credible and fits in well to the narrative, though intelligence that's credible and fits into a narrative yet isn't confirmed and fully vetted doesn't . As for the C-SPAN stuff, the router issue seems reasonable, though it is strange that it only affected the web stream. Then again, the Ruskis have scrambled American television signals before: 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/210/#findComment-165605 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRolyPoly 2415 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I don't know if this was ever talked about here but thank god for LinkedIn for this information... Victoria Hansen has left WCIV-36.2 (Channel 4) in Charleston after 10 years and 11 months. This was her second stint at the station as she first had one from 1991-1996 as weekend anchor/reporter. And for those who like to watch WKRN videos on YT, she was also there from '96-'05 before going back to WCIV in '06. Hansen is now a Senior Proposal Writer for Scientific Research Corporation in Charleson, SC so she's still in the area.

TexasTVNews 1377 Posted January 14, 2017 Author Share Posted January 14, 2017 Another change at Raycom's Cleveland 19 CBS (WOIO).

TheRolyPoly 2415 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 In my home market... WPLG 10 will become the first station in the nation to have an international news bureau when it launches its newest news bureau from Havana, tomorrow night at 6:00pm. Reporter Haztel Vela and Photog Brian Ely have already moved to the communist country and will be stationed at the new news bureau. Even though it will be very expensive to have a bureau like this, the way WPLG 10 and other stations in the market have been covering Cuba recently, its not surprising that WPLG 10 is doing this. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/miami-station-to-launch-nations-first-cuba-bureau/184151 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/210/#findComment-165697 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breaking News 829 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Kristyn Hartman moves from Dispatch-owned WBNS in Columbus to Scripps owned WCPO in Cincinnati. Kristyn leaves to go to WCPO where Yolanda, will start in July. I think Jerry Revish will retire in May, and by summertime Jeff Hogan/ Yolanda Harris will be the face on the evening news. Will Kristyn replace Carol Williams? Carol is set to retire sometime this month from WCPO, and Kristyn, would start at WCPO sometime in April. Kristyn will probably anchor 5-6PM & 7PM http://www.wcpo.com/news/local-news/top-journalist-and-anchor-kristyn-hartman-joins-wcpo-9-on-your-side http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/life_and_entertainment/2017/01/15/wbns-tv-anchor-hartman-leaving-for-cincinnati.html Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/210/#findComment-165779 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasTVNews 1377 Posted January 17, 2017 Author Share Posted January 17, 2017 Katie Moore of New Orleans WWL (CBS) is changing roles. Moore will stepping away from the anchor desk to focusing on investigative reporting 5 days a week. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/new-orleans-anchor-moves-to-investigative-reporting/184278 Long-time anchor Anne Holt of Nashville's WKRN (ABC) announced on last night newscast she's stepping away from the anchor desk after 36 years at the end of this month. Holt has been at WKRN for 40 years when she joined in 1976 and became primary anchor in 1980. Holt and her co-anchor Bob Mueller had become the longest running anchor team in the history of Tennessee Television for over 30 years since 1984. http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/anne-holt-to-step-away-from-anchor-desk-after-36-years/184259 And on a emotional note, Sports Anchor Kristen Berset of Washington DC's WUSA (CBS) is taking time off from the newscasts to battle her second fight with breast cancer. No woman should ever have to fight this deadly disease, and let's hope there's a cure is right around the corner. TVNT is wishing KB all the best and command her courage and strength to kick cancer's ass second time, and looking forward to seeing you on the news again soon. http://www.wusa9.com/news/local/wusa9s-kristen-berset-battles-cancer-for-second-time/386551897 5 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/210/#findComment-165808 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven 1955 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Get ready for another diginet. Sinclair and MGM is launching an Action-related diginet called Charge!. It'll launch within Q1 of this year. Also MeTV has a new affiliate in the Atlanta market. Marquee Broadcasting's WGTA will be the primary affiliate of the MeTV Network, replacing Cox-owned WSB, effective March 25. But here's the issue. WGTA use to be former CBS affiliate WNEG in Toccoa, and its signal doesn't reach the immediate part of metro Atlanta. So people who don't have cable or satellite, (or have an outdoor antenna pointing to the east) won't be able to receive MeTV programming in Atlanta. I strongly thought Cox have a group deal with MeTV, since they carry it on their other stations (WPXI, WHIO).
