Eat News 4745 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 It seems they are going in house. I just saw a promo featuring Greg Bledsoe and Marianne Kushi for News Today. Oh please, Greg Bledsoe is barely old enough to buy booze, and pair him up with Kushi who will probably sit there and cut the crust off his PB&J while keeping him hydrated with a juice box. Are they looking for some kind of "reverse" Carlos and Lisa (KUSI) look? "Did you wear your Star Wars jammies last night Greg?" 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/174/#findComment-154874 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young, but certainly not a baby. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/174/#findComment-154875 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he is being paired with Grandma and Uncle Whitney. At least there will always be some baby wipes close by. (I got a car seat and happy meal jab also but i'm trying to be nicer and more "understanding" like the court ordered doctor likes.) 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/174/#findComment-154878 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I got a car seat and happy meal jab also but i'm trying to be nicer and more "understanding" like the court ordered doctor likes.) I don't understand how they're happy with the status quo. They've been losing ground more and more in the mornings for a while now. They should have used this opportunity to start fresh. Maybe move Marianne to the 11am/4pm, and moved Megan to Weekday AM's. The problem with KNSD is that they play things wayyyy to safe, and just do the minimum to get by. At least FOX 5 and KUSI put in some effort in the mornings. This isn't a knock on Greg, but the last thing they needed is someone that will put the viewers to sleep. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/174/#findComment-154880 Share on other sites More sharing options...

No balls, No Guts... I like the Megan in the morning idea...but you gotta blow out the rest of that morning line-up. If I'm stuck watching these cornheads while doing the arts and crafts here at the Senior center...I want a little visual stimulation.

How is the ND still is employed when the station's newscasts are not able to win at least 1 timeslot? If this was any other place, that ND would have been canned long ago. And they can't blame NBC programming, since it has improved quite considerably these last few years... 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/174/#findComment-154910 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the Mexican Valium / Advil and Viagra( all blue) mixed up sometimes. On occasion I "roofie" myself... and then there is peace in the valley for a spell.

Action Newsroom 1281 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 WGCL producer fired over racist rants about Black Lives Matter on Facebook Dammit. When will some TV people learn? Posting s#¡t like this publicly will NOT end well for them. I don't care if you're black, Hispanic, Asian or whatever; posting crap like this on a public website for all to see is downright wrong and should've been written in the confines of your house. Especially on your notepad or in you brain. And for that, you deserve to get fired. #NOTSORRY I guess he didn't know about Wendy Bell. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/174/#findComment-155025 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mardek1995 200 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Since CBS is either spinning off its radio stations, or selling them altogether, they should expand CBS Local to include the rest of the NFL markets that they don't already have in there, and add in live streams of non-O&O stations that CBS Local covers, news only of course. And like it is with NewsOn, its up to the stations to decide whether or not they want to live stream their news on CBS Local.
