This news took me by surprise - isn't Roseanne Tellez a little old to be having children? I mean, I don't know her age, but she looks like she could be in her mid 40's. I like Roseanne, it's just when u pop 'em out past 40 it takes a big physical toll. Look what happened to Linda MacLennan, she looked great til she had that last kid at 42 I think it was. Her appearance really went downhill after that which truthfully had a lot to do with her departure. Sounds bad to say, but Roseanne better be careful. After all, her boss is still Joe Ahern.

I really don't know what they're going to do with the morning news.. I really can't see Ahern promoting anyone within to Randy's old spot. I can't think of anyone else in the market he could bring in to have the chemistry they previously had with Randy. The only thing I can see is the changing of format for the morning news.

 

Let's see.. Bringing back Jon Duncanson and Sylvia Gomez for a new "good morning happy married anchors cup of coffee" style of morning news? A new morning news promo shot showing Jon driving around with the rest of the morning team in an older red Ford Taurus. replacing Ed Curran with Rick DiMaio and adding Bruce Wolf to the morning team. Who knows..

 

Make me wonder, if Antonio Mora was still with WBBM at the time of Randy's death, would Ahern have changed his mind about not renewing his contract? Antonio does have morning news experience..

OMG, Channel 2 is clearly desperate... Weekend Meteorologist Don Schwenneker is filling-in this morning... as a NEWSANCHOR. 8 minutes into the show as I write this and it's not pretty, he's clearly out of his element. What the heck? And why does he always wear an American flag pin?

Probably the same reason Jay Leno always wears the American Flag pin. I never seen any video of him when he was still in Pittsburgh but I'm guessing he's been wearing it since the time around 9/11.

 

I don't get to watch CBS 2 Morning News much anymore. They couldn't even get Vince Gerasole to fill in this morning? He's usually happy to fill in anchoring whenever needed.

 

 

As for Mary Ann Childers and Jay Levine anchoring the morning, I don't think they'll do that. The reason being WBBM finds Mary Ann Childers and Jay Levine too valuable to be stuck as morning anchors only. I could see them possibly using Mary Ann Childers to anchor the 11AM newscast but Diann burns having alot of vacation days, they need a top notch anchor to fill-in. Also, Jay Levine's expertise is being Chief Correspondent and his reporting skills can't be matched by anyone else there.
