JTT 111 Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Who has been filling in for the station now that Fred Roggin left the station? Mario does the weekday sports segments.

MD TV 255 Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Annabelle Sedano has been hired as a new 3PM and 5PM anchor: https://www.nbclosangeles.com/community/nbc4-names-annabelle-sedano-as-news-anchor/3115314/ Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17919-knbc-nbc-4-news-los-angeles-thread/page/4/#findComment-284370 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTT 111 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Why didn't they promote Robert Kovacik to the 3 and 5pm newscast? I think when his contract is up, he'll be leaving the station. I thought either Kovacik or Brownlee were next in line to be promoted.

JoseRM303 171 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 So we now know who will sit next to Colleen at 5pm, but do we have any word on who sits next to her at 11 pm and who’s going to sit next to Carolyn at 6 pm?

FiveNews 372 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 I assume Colleen will continue solo at 11pm. She definitely has the chops to lead the 11pm on her own, she already does it at 7pm. KCBS/KCAL has Pat Harvey anchor solo at 11pm (6pm as well). Marc Brown anchors KABCs 11pm solo. KNBC could complete the big three network trifecta with this arrangement. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17919-knbc-nbc-4-news-los-angeles-thread/page/4/#findComment-284387 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there two meteorologists at 3 p.m.?

The weekend weather anchors split that 3pm shift. One works like M-W, and the other takes Th-F, or something like that. I believe they do the same thing at 11am, too, and it's a pretty normal thing at many other stations. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17919-knbc-nbc-4-news-los-angeles-thread/page/4/#findComment-284391 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTT 111 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Her bio states that Sedano used to work for Univision in Los Angeles at KMEX 34. Will NBCLA have her anchor at Telemundo KVEA 52 in the future as well? If the anchors and reporters are bilingual, why not utilize that and have them report for both stations. That will help with their budget. Does anyone believe that Kovacik may get 6pm co anchor spot and be given the 7pm anchor spot while Williams go back to co anchor the 5pm and anchor the 11pm news?

I don't watch KNBC at those times so I didn't realize they split it which is why I was confused about the statement. I know KTLA does the same for its midday newscasts.

JTT 111 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Why do they do that by having 2 weathercasters split the weekdays duties in the mid afternoon? Why does a station need 5 permanent weathercasters? I remember a while back, all KNBC had was Christopher Nance doing the morning newscasts weather and Fritz Coleman doing the evening newscast. On the weekends, they would have one of the co anchors reading the weather report with the weather maps on the screen. A few years later, Paul Johnson was asked to work 7 days a week, m - f doing traffic, and on the weekends the weather. I can understand the station having 4 weather casters, but not 5. If one of the 4 calls in sick, they can have a temp fill in. Or they can have one of the other 3 fill in for the person that called in sick.

JTT 111 Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Why doesn't NBCLA have an anchor who is of Asian background? Ted Chen used to be an anchor on the weekend morning news, but that was years ago.

JTT 111 Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 (edited) Annabelle Sedano first day on the job was today. I saw her anchor the 3pm newscast, but I did not see her at 5pm, as Carolyn Johnson co-anchored the newscast with Colleen Williams. Does anyone know why wasn't Annabelle anchoring the 5pm news with Colleen?

FiveNews 372 Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 KNBCs refreshed studio is now up and running. No big changes. A few new large monitors and it appears the station has ditched the augmented reality for weather.

JTT 111 Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 The station posted that they have a new sports anchor Olivia Garvey for the weekends. Does this mean that Mario Solis is the weekday sports anchor? His bio on the station website still says he's weekday reporter and weekend sports anchor.

JTT 111 Posted April 20, 2024 Share Posted April 20, 2024 Will the station expand today in LA weekend? If they do, the station should put a newscast on both Saturday and Sunday before the today show, then their regular scheduled newscast at 7am, then add a late newscast on Sundays after newsconference if there are no scheduled sports programming from the network.

JTT 111 Posted May 20, 2024 Share Posted May 20, 2024 Since Olivia Garvey join the station, will they create a new sports show with Mario & Olivia following NFL & their college football coverage. They're also probably going to get rights to the NBA soon as well. It would make sense that they would create a new local sports program. I don't like program the challenge.

Like KABC owned the weather coverage with Dallas Raines a great meteorologist and a very funny person imo. But ya know I was studying the Spanish stations and it was like a decade I noticed then that KVEA only had one weather anchor and KMEX had only 2 they both now have meteorologist covering all newscast. But my question was with LA crazy climate why wasn’t weather not taken seriously. I remember watching a vintage video from the 1991 or 1990 of KTLA and I saw their 10pm news intro from back then and I noticed there was no weather anchor, when they launched the morning news Mark Kristi (I believe his name was) did weather and traffic, but there no weather anchor at 10. I always wondered why some tv stations don’t feature weather anchors for their evening shows. Maybe it because I’m not from California and I live in a state with wild weather but it felt weird for me.
