Yeah. I posted it too on Out and About but he's dishonest and stupid.

 

Its a sidecar company for FMBC and the McBride family donated to his campaign for Congress last year! (link is there on O&A).

Saw this earlier on Facebook & X, a little exchange between some folks and Mr. Jim Schwartzel, where he proclaims he has nothing to do with WINK-TV or WINK-FM..   Uh right, I don't believe this for a minute. 

 

So why is WINK news shown on WXCW a "Sun Broadcasting" owned outlet??   It says he has no role in FMBC.

WINK News airs on WXCW the same way Local 10 News aired on WSFL-TV owned by someone else, nothing to do with ownership  🙄

And if Schwartzel owned a % of WINK-TV he would have to be listed in the FCC Ownership disclosure report

where specifically does it say it's a sidecar for FBMC? This would be public information

WINK New set

 

 

they nailed everything but the cheesy "honest, fair, everywhere" slogan, going to a 2-shot of the anchors sitting in front of yet another video wall followed by the bizzarre decision to come back to them as they stand next to their chairs with the laptops wide open😄

I miss the window pane split monitor look of the old set

Looks like they're using some soft white glow effect by the anchor desk. loving the look of the pink skyline versus a solid blue background.

Yeah that was strange and jarring. It's also a strange design choice if the video is still confined to the center. Make it take up the 16x9 portion of the array or leave the anchors in the middle.

I grabbed this off of a facebook video from WINK, this has got to be the most bizarre robo camera I've ever seen, looks like its from Cue Script/Artimo?.    

 

This must be some new gizmo?  Any other stations have this set up?

NBC 5 Chicago and their Telemundo station have these cameras as well.
