Roadrunner 216 Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 4 hours ago, SFTV said: News Director Tim Wieland from KCNC has confirmed via Twitter that Michelle Griego is leaving KPIX and will be heading back home to anchor CBS4 Mornings. Michelle tweeted she will be heading home in August. Not sure who will replace Michele’s position... The only candidates come to mind are Anne Makovec, Emily Turner, maybe Veronica De La Cruz if she comes back since she’s been on LOA for health and personal reasons. Nice catch; they both shared this last Thursday but I certainly never spotted this lol Hopefully that blogger can be done ranting about the station, but... what do I know As for replacements, - Anne is the most natural replacement based on position so it should be the easiest to slot her right in. - If not, I think they'll hire someone new, because Emily is a relatively new mom and VDLC is essentially gone. - But if Emily also wants the job, she would fit right in as well. Didn't Maria also used to anchor with Frank Mallicoat (before he was forced out)? Could we see her return to the anchor chair? I know she had tough personal losses last year, so I also understand if she sticks to reporting on her schedule/doesn't want to return to mornings.

I wonder if she handles the 12 noon show too. And just like that, Brittany Bell is leaving ABC11 for WABC. Unsure if anyone is leaving the flagship, but they could probably stand to have a 5th meteorologist, with Sam Champion's limited availability. https://www.instagram.com/p/CP8kcUMnKhG/ Edited June 10, 2021 by 24994J 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/453/#findComment-261062 Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Block 1566 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 KTVU was off the air for more than four hours because of a power outage. Power went out to the station around 5am. The station was back on the air around 9 running NewsNow with some intermittent updates from Pam at the newsroom flash cam.

TexasTVNews 1377 Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 Well, it's happening. Cincinnati's FOX 19 (WXIX) is expanding its news once again. Starting September 13th, FOX 19 is adding another hour of news with an addition of a 3PM newscast. FOX 19 News Now at 3pm will be anchored by Chris Riva, Amber Jayanth, and Meteorologist Ashley Smith. And that's only the beginning, FOX 19's Saturday morning newscast will also begin an hour earlier starting this fall, and it will air from 7:00-10am rather than 8:00-10am. With is move, WXIX will provide 68.5 hours a week of live local news, more than any other station in the market. https://www.wvxu.org/post/wxix-tv-expanding-local-news-fill-judge-judy-3-pm-slot-fall#stream/0 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/453/#findComment-261246 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleSeven 1955 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Ah boy. Another news expansion. Cincinnati's WLWT is launching a new hourly 4pm and half hour 7pm-casts. The 7pm will launch as the Olympics are starting on July 26. While the new 4pm will start after the games on August 9. Ellen will be moved to 3pm and that will bump Tamron to 2pm after Days.
