I was channel surfing in the Pacific time zone and saw Collins/CNN and Hannity/Fox on the story. Meanwhile, Maddow/MSNBC kept rolling with an Alex Wagner piece re: Trump. It was awhile before they went to the crash. CBS was on and off the air with a special report before NBC brought in Hallie Jackson. 
 

edit: Chris Welch from 24/7 anchored initial CBS network coverage

Someone had just brought up the Baltimore bridge collapsed to me, now this.

 

This has not been a good year for aviation! 

 

WCBS' Kristine Johnson anchored CBS' coverage.

 

NBC had a huge Chicago crossover going on tonight but even they interrupted limitedly, with the MSNBC bug on screen.

 

Hallie Jackson earning her stripes again. 

 

Compared to the key bridge crash where DC stations were in Baltimore, I'm not really seeing Baltimore stations in DC for this event.

CBS News 24/7 has been carrying coverage of WUSA, ABC News Live has been doing their own coverage, and NBC News Now has been carrying WRC's coverage when they're not showing Special Report coverage.

 

CBC News is following this as well with The National in breaking news mode, due in part to the passenger plane being a Canadian-made Bombardier CRJ-701 manufactured in 2004.

  • nathannah changed the title to DCA American Airlines 5342/Blackhawk Copter Crash

Obviously, being this is taking place in their city, DC stations are all over it, although WJLA (ABC) lagged behind the others not going into breaking news mode until around 10:15.

Been streaming the Wichita stations since the flight originated from there. KAKE and KWCH are providing solid coverage.

Turned on KAKE right when Jay Prater started talking about Reagan National and did a good job explaining the airport layout since he is a pilot himself. 
 

KSN is streaming DC News Now on their website, but not anything local cause Nexstar rules.

Lester Holt is on NBC now with a special report.

 

WCBS’ Kristine Johnson was anchoring CBS coverage (on streaming at least).

Did Kristine do it from the WCBS studio considering she's doing the evening newscasts there?

Christine anchored on TV as well as streaming, and it appears it was from the regular CBS studio.

 

But when she anchored it was about 9:00 p.m. Eastern so she probably had time to go to the WCBS studio.

WUSA and WJLA are staying local after 7am. WRC is not.

 

Update: after carrying the latest news conference WRC is staying local.

WRC initially reported 4 people were alive in the water. Seems like pushing that error should’ve been a bigger deal.
