njlady 1 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 He was on TINY today - he seemed a little unsure at first but he does a great job with the weather. I wish he had a regular job on WNBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nynewsjunkie 13 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 That guy is a pro. He knows what the heck he is doing! Kudos, Joe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightofni 2 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Joe's the best. Who knows? He may get a staff spot when contracts run out soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njlady 1 Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 JMO but I think that WNBC has 3 great weatherpeople, Joe Cioffi, Janice Huff and Chris Cimino (he was funny Saturday morning filling in on TINY). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistroh 0 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 JMO but I think that WNBC has 3 great weatherpeople, Joe Cioffi, Janice Huff and Chris Cimino (he was funny Saturday morning filling in on TINY). VERY interesting that those are the three you name. Consider this insider info..no opinions, just info: 1. John Marshall has just inked a new contract to stay on weekends. He knows their graphics system the best. Otherwise, management isn't exactly bowled over by his on-air delivery. 2. Janice is a meteorologist, however most of her job is just on-air presentation. She does little or no graphic work, otherwise she gets a briefing from the off-air meteorologist who has already done the forecasting, and she can agree with or alter that.

Would be poetic justice if Cioffi replaced Huff. NBC would be my news of choice for a long time. Others may follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watsgood 0 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Admittedly, I'm not in NY as much as I used to be, so I'm not sure about any "poetic justice," but I always thought Huff was a class act. I thought Cioffi would replace Mosey. From what I saw of her in NY, she's still completely inept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poetic justice meaning "Cioffi gets the weekday 11pm slot on a major network in market one" poetic justice. Not to take anything from Huff, who's been a major player in NYC for years now and deservedly so. Mosley needs to go tho. That's where Joe comes in.

I get what you're saying, and you're absolutely right. Another poster is wondering what I'm wondering. Are they going to keep Mosey on the weekend a.m. and use Cioffi as a fill-in? I'm sure they got Mosey on the cheap. Is Huff's contract up any time soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbs2idiots 21 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I wouldnt mind if Cioffi or even Marshall replace Huff. I just dont find Huff weather presentation to be appealing. Also Mosey isnt all that either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunditWannabe 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I love Huff -- I think she's great. Cimino is good. Marshall -- meh. He always sounds so hyper. It's the fourth slot that they've really made some poor choices lately. Mosey is terrible, but a step more watchable than her predecessor "Ibby" Carrothers. Joe Moreno was o.k.

TellyGenic 32 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I'm thinking Mosey is only on a one-year contract, and as soon as that's up, Joe will step into the Weekend Morning slot, plus fill in for Marshall on weekend evenings when Marshall fills in for Huff on weekdays.... That would probably be the best thing for WNBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would probably be the best thing for WNBC. I agree. Although, I think the bio said Mosey started with 4 in May 2006, well past a year ago.

nynewsjunkie 13 Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 I think Huff has the presentation part nailed. Compare her to Quinn- night and day difference. I haven't watched Cimino in a while because I am not up that early, but I remember loving his presentation. That man is a true pro. He can have good chemistry with ANY anchor because of his personality. He might be amazing in the PM slot, but I kind of like how Janice moved up through the ranks to get where she is today. If Chris started before Janice he might be in her spot now. I have met that guy personally a couple of times around town and he is just as nice and funny off camera as he is on. So with Chris, Janice, John, & Joe they might have one of the best weather departments.. in my opinion that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
