Since the NYC weekday edition of NewsNation Now debuted last year, they kept this strange dichotomy where the Chicago edition with Nichole Berle features a logo with white text on a blue background, while the NYC edition with Connell McShane features a logo with blue text on a white background.

 

I figured they might go for a unified look on the weekends, but nope. The NYC edition hosted by Anna Kooiman uses the blue text w/white background logo, while the brand-new Chicago edition hosted by Adrienne Bankert uses the white text on blue background logo, despite the fact that the NYC/Chicago timeslots are reversed on weekends. Looks like it's the originating city, and not the timeslot, that determines the logo.

Don't know if other Nexstar stations have done this or not but KDVR & KFCT dropped a FOX NEWS Special Report, during an interview with Kevin Corke, to go to local coverage for aprox 5 mins before throwing to News Nation to cover Mr. Biden dropping his re-election bid.  🤨  I find the choice to drop network coverage strange.

Here's another view from the opposite angle.

That's quite the panoramic multi-window view of the capitol. Does anyone know if this is the same building where NBC, Fox, and C-SPAN are located, or if this is somewhere else? And do we know if this is the same building as NewsNation's previous DC studio?

Nexstar's DC bureau is located in the same building as NBC/FOX/C-SPAN. It possible they renovated/expanded that space for NewsNation DC ops because this view of the capital (which I assume is from real windows) is pretty much identical to Fox News DC. That said, my guess is that this is just another studio (in the same building).

That is...really stupid. The CW/WB took advantage (outside the big markets) of the fact that it had entertainment that night and was the only place viewers could go for something new. In many markets, NN is right next to the local CW station as a legacy of its WGN carriage (a station that's sending that simulcast right to the .3, just like KTLA and WPIX), so the simulcast is nigh pointless for anyone outside the Nexstar boardroom.

 

You also know that the Sinclair stations are out at 10 for NND, so why even try to go to midnight outside the main CW base?

 

ETA - Yeah, Sinclair's definitely not simulcasting News Nation on their CW affiliates on the 5th; extended primetime NND that night. Wonder if Gray's will air Local News live instead then.

Yeah, The CW should have just aired NXT on election night it's going to be the dog that night which was Fox since those that watch election night coverage go and watch Fox News and not the big Fox why their always last when doing SOTU addresses, big Fox is happy they aren't going to be in last place when the results come in.

Chris Cuomo is staying put at NN with a new multi year contract.

Watching fire coverage right now on KTLA. It appears Nexstar has now forced them to add a large banner at the bottom of the screen stating that "NewsNation is on Spectrum 126, Directv 307, Dish 207" 

 

I have no idea why they think anyone watching KTLA would need to know what channel number NewsNation is. It's actually insulting that while KTLA is  producing extremely important breaking news coverage they are being forced to have a banner promoting coverage on some garbage low rated cable channel channel run by disgraced and/or former FOX News exces, Why would anyone choose to watch coverage anchored by unpopular fired and/or disgraced cable news hosts instead of live coverage from KTLA itself? 

 

NewsNation will never be a success. Doing ridiculous stunts like these on actual good quality news sources people actually watch like KTLA just makes Nexstar look so pathetic

Changes are effective February 10th. Vargas moves to 7pm ET, and NewsNation Now with Connell McShane expands to three hours to cover the 5pm ET hour that Vargas's show currently occupies.

 

Really surprised they're actually not adding a new personality to the schedule.
