JTT 111 Posted May 25, 2024 Share Posted May 25, 2024 I remember what it was like back then in the late 80s and early 90s. It was weird to see Paul Johnson working 7 days a week. I think the stations didn't view it necessary at the time to have many weather anchors, when one of the 2 news anchors could just read to the viewers what the weather was or will be. Later in the mid 90s when the stations started to invest more in their newscast did they hire more meteorologist or weather anchors.

FiveNews 371 Posted July 30, 2024 Share Posted July 30, 2024 Have there been quiet anchor changes/departures? I saw a quick promo that featured Colleen Williams and Michael Brownlee as the 6pm team. Not sure if this is for the Olympics or a permament move? Carolyn Johnson was the previous anchor at 6pm. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17919-knbc-nbc-4-news-los-angeles-thread/page/5/#findComment-299072 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTT 111 Posted July 30, 2024 Share Posted July 30, 2024 What happened to Carolyn Johnson? I haven't seen her lately.

JTT 111 Posted August 1, 2024 Share Posted August 1, 2024 (edited) Is Toni Guinyard still with the station? Her bio is not listed on the station newsteam page with everyone else, but once you search her name, you can find her bio information. Did she retire?

JTT 111 Posted August 19, 2024 Share Posted August 19, 2024 I saw on TV listings that knbc is premiering a new program called Saturday Night Lights on August 31. I was wondering if it is produced by knbc or it's a general program following their college football coverage.

Very likely, it's produced by KNBC considering the time it comes on after college football, similar to what we have here in Phoenix now apparently as KPNX has a new Saturday night sports show called 12 Sports Locker Room which actually starts tonight after the NASCAR race. Have a feeling in addition to being post-college football programming to keep sports fans tuned in afterwards, this also feels like a replacement for having lost the Cardinals broadcasting rights to KPHO/KTVK & hence the post-SNF programming as well alongside their Sunday night sports show 12 Sports Tonight. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17919-knbc-nbc-4-news-los-angeles-thread/page/5/#findComment-299761 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTT 111 Posted October 11, 2024 Share Posted October 11, 2024 (edited) I think knbc should bring back their old slogan, "the station working 4 you" & "coverage you can count on" as well as segments including 4 your health, 4 your money, & Just 4you. I also liked their theme music of the late 90s early 2000s. Does anyone think they should use these slogans, segments, & music as well again?

FiveNews 371 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Per her Instagram (@CarolynNBCLA) Carolyn Johnson has succesfully completed multiple rounds of chemo and returning to the anchor desk this week. The post says that she will start with the 11pm. Not sure how long the arrangement will be or if it is a slow ramp up for her to get her work stamina back as she used to anchor the 4pm and 6pm. Colleen Williams has anchored the 11pm at KNBC for nearly 30yrs. Could also be an effort to cut back Colleen's work load and start the push towards retirement. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17919-knbc-nbc-4-news-los-angeles-thread/page/5/#findComment-303538 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTT 111 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Annabelle was hired to be on the 3 & 5pm newscast last year. Michael was supposed to anchor the 11am & 4pm newscast. Then Carolyn got sick & the station changed their anchor lineup. Robert is still with the station as a fill in anchor. I think the new lineup will be 11a & 3p - Annabelle 4 & 6pm - Robert & Carolyn - when she's able to come back full time 5 & 11pm - Colleen & Michael 7pm - Colleen or rotating anchors 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17919-knbc-nbc-4-news-los-angeles-thread/page/5/#findComment-303758 Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5552 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 What a mess. I know there's a variable with Carolyn, but it's kinda embarrassing when a major market station like this leaves their line-ups in flux like this.

I know its been a mess lately, but there are 6pm promos featuring Michael and Colleen. Robert Kovacik is one of their top street reporters. 11a and 3p- Annabelle 4, 5, 6- Colleen/Michael 7- Colleen 11- Carolyn. She may take on another show as her health improves. She has been filling in on earlier shows this week and last as Colleen is off. Colleen is almost 70. She has anchored the 11pm since Kelly Lange stepped down from that show in the mid-late 90s. I think her getting off the 11pm is one step towards her eventual retirement.

I don't see Melissa Magee on at 11pm, it is now David Biggar. Carolyn will fill in on earlier shows as needed. I assume as Carolyn's health improves, she will pick up an additional show. Before her medical leave, she co-anchored at 4p and 6p. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17919-knbc-nbc-4-news-los-angeles-thread/page/5/#findComment-304232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTT 111 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 (edited) Colleen anchoring all of the afternoon/ evening newscasts is a bit much. Why are they not rotating anchors between 4-6:30pm? Will this be the permanent lineup or will it change as Carolyn Johnson health improves? I hope this lineup is not permanent, especially for the evening & 11pm newscasts.
