Eyewitness News takes a backseat

[abc7 Man 62]

Eyewitness News is now available in the new taxi cabs set to hit the streets in the coming weeks. These new cabs have an interactive LCD screen located on the back of the middle partition. Here's the full story:

Guess its another way to get viewers to watch the Number 1 Station in New York.

I thought I heard on WCBS that Maurice said we could catch them there too. So the Big 3. I don't think it will be that successful though.

Found sometime in the future on "Overheard in NY":

 

TVNT member: We'll take the next cab. My stations not on.

 

TVNT member's wife: Are you serious?

 

TVNT member: Don't make me lower your Karma.

I guess you won't know what station you got until the cab driver starts the meter. ???

Some of the cabs have advertisements in their usual billboard space advertising the new technology and, at least on the one's showing WABC programming, the ABC7 logo is in the billboard ad. So, if you see that ad on top of cab in the future, then you'll know you can watch Eyewitness News in the back seat!

Thanks. I'll be on the lookout. Have you seen one?
