KTLA Musical Chair at 10

Do you think that KTLA will continue to use a number of its anchors and reporters to fill the 10pm slot until a new male anchor is found? Today I noticed Emmett Miller was anchoring. I don't think I've ever seen him on at 10 before. I actually like Emmett alot. I think he's very professional.

I don't know what KTLA's intentions are for that newscast, but they need to get Leila out if they want a credible newscast. They should replace her with Marta Waller.

I agree, Leila is not a good fit on Prime News, I think that Marta is a good choice and I would go out on a limb and say put Ron Olsen on the interim basis, I know he does not anchor, and does special feature reports for KTLA and the L.A. Times. However, I believe Ron is the best choice, out of all the male anchors available. One other possibility could be Michaela Pereira. I like her a lot, and she can be serious when need be.

Gah! You beat me to the post! Yea, they are just moving around both male an female anchors around now. It seems to me they also get new reporters each week.

I kinda like John Beard. he would be a good addition to Prime News.

 

BTW...When is his last newscast with FOX 11? I forget when it is.

He has not returned to Fox 11 News since they announced the day after Labor Day his coming departure. They don't make mention of him anymore on-air. I doubt he'll be back at all before his contract ends.

 

It is musical chairs at 10 PM on Fox 11 also currently with Jeff Michael filling in the last two nights. Michael Brownlee and Ed Laskos filled in last week.

Musical chairs continue on both KTLA and Fox 11 tonight. Tony McEwing is filling in tonight on Fox 11 News. I don't think I've ever seen him to the 10 PM news.

 

Emmitt Miller continues on KTLA but Lynette Romero was filling in for Leila Feinstein. So far, they look like the best team together. Might work well out of the CW programming but certainly wouldn't hang on to Hal's older audience. Not great but with who KTLA has that's about as good as they can do if they don't hire from outside.

 

Lynette Romero needs to wear clothing that makes her look slimmer.

 

Pretty pathetic when KCAL is the most stable station in town with Pat Harvey and Glen Walker. He isn't anything special. John Beard and Pat Harvey would make a great team.

This is a shame Channel 5 have done dumb things before (i.e Free Rooms at the Ritz-Carlton Pasadena, Michela's free furniture, The audition) but know losing its heir apparent Carlos Amezcusa to Fox 11 just weeks of Hal Fishman's death is insane ::). I never could imagine this station being rudderless. No male anchor for Prime News, No anchor for the Morning Show. Frank Buckley trying to do morning and weekend news. The station is stretch too thin. It is the one of the smallest news tv news departments in the LA market(others include KDOC, KHIZ (in Victorville serving the high desert and a small cable news program in Temecula are smaller).

The news department needs to be revamped before its too late?!?!?! >:)
