Do any other ABC stations (on the east) start The 10 Commandments on at 8 instead of 7? WTEN has ALWAYS done this, so the 11pm News won’t be on until 12:44 and it is Sam DiMascio’s last night anchoring, she is leaving to be with her family.

Before last year, WABC aired the movie at 8, because of the Auto Show special at 7.  But since its been curtailed due to the pandemic, they've now start the movie at 7.

 

WTEN could've preempted Wheel/J! repeat tonight. Most ABC stations that carry these shows did.

While WTOL hasn't had a deep bench in the news department and completely turned over its weekday anchor teams over the past year, WTOL meteorologists Chris Vickers and Ryan Wichman have been there for over a decade, so expect one of them to fill this spot.

I had the pleasure of meeting Robert 11 years ago. Really nice guy who took the time to answer any of my questions about weather and the technology used to forecast. He even gave me a weather map at the end of the broadcast and thanked me for coming. He will be missed by so many on WTOL's airwaves.

KFDA weatherman Cameron Venable has announced his departure from the station.  He'll be moving to Wichita, where he will get in some storm chasing.  He didn't mention what station he'd end up at.

He tweeted he'll be the weekend morning meteorologist and storm chaser at KAKE.

KMBC-TV, Ch. 9 in Kansas City, MO use to do this as well with both The 10 Commandments & the Sound of Music. They would start the movies at 6PM, instead of 7PM.

Difficult time for the staff of WSB-TV. The loss of Don Farmer and now Jovita Moore battling 2 small brain cancers. Prayers are with Jovita,

her family and her extended family at Channel 2 Action News in the difficult time.
