PhillyWatch 239 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 He's been France 24's White House correspondent for years and recently announced on twitter that he'd be reporting for the AP as well. I'm guessing the deal is something along the lines of the latter of what you said- France 24 is his primary employer (and AP affiliate) and while out and about around the world, he can file reports for the AP as well. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/353/#findComment-225575 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAVY 10 Fan 233 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 (edited) So it looks like meteorologists returning to the Hampton Roads region after leaving elsewhere looks like a trend so far (coupling the following with Jeff Edmondson returning to WAVY) Craig Moeller, newly dropped from KSDK in St. Louis, heading back to WVEC to return for a "great opportunity" (WVEC already has 5 meteorologists and per a tweet by Jeff Lawson he's going to be meteorologist number 6) https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2019/4/29/gone-in-st-louis Edited May 1, 2019 by WAVY 10 Fan Clarification Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/353/#findComment-225587 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eat News 4745 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 On 4/30/2019 at 11:47 AM, ihEARDtHAT said: With the recent shooting at a San Diego area Synagogue, KFMB, CBS-8 San Diego, has decided to not use the name or image of the alleged shooter in stories until the legal proceedings occur. They state that victims (those injured or just present at the shooting) can be traumatized by the repeated use of the shooter's name or photo. I have not seen any other San Diego station do the same. So is KFMB going to do this in all shooting cases? Just asking...since I don't want anyone else "traumatized" by the faces of shooting suspects.

scrabbleship 429 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 (edited) An end of an era in Boston television is upon us. Lynch's last night on the sports desk will be on August 15th. The question is who replaces him: Conventional wisdom would say Friday/Saturday sports anchor Bob Halloran, especially since Josh Brogadir, has been transitioning to general assignment reporting. Does 5 go with the tried and true, as they often do, or go off the board?

Well, not necessarily all of them. America's Court with Judge Ross already airs on KADN 15.3 (the subchannel called My Acadiana TV, in reference to the subchannel's My Network TV affiliation). He does have shows that air on other channels in the Lafayette, LA, market, though; with that said, it wouldn't surprise me if at least most of his shows, if not all of them, moved to KADN and its subchannels.

I certainly wouldn't be surprised. A full hour of each of his incessant "court" shows each weekday, Funny You Should Ask every afternoon, Comics Unleashed late nights, all his many infotainment shows during weekends, and those weird sitcoms that many well-known TV actors somehow signed up for on weeknights.
