IceManNYR 222 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Is there no one else FOX5 could find to work this weekend? His intro was very awkward and he just does not seem comfortable as a solo news anchor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtmclaug 51 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I'd say the same thing as you. He's not used to doing weekends, much less evenings and by himself. You'd think they would give it to someone on the weekday evening shift (Ernie Anastos or Rosanna Scotto.) As long as he keeps his regular job on GDNY and FOX 5 Midday, I'm happy.

IceManNYR 222 Posted August 25, 2008 Author Share Posted August 25, 2008 They used Karen Hepp tonight at 10pm. Karen used to be the weekend anchor till she got promoted to GDNY and Christina Park went back to weekend anchoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck95 0 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 You'd think they would give it to someone on the weekday evening shift (Ernie Anastos or Rosanna Scotto.) Why the F*** would Ernie or Rosanna work on the weekend? They're been around too long and make too much money to put up with that. Does anyone on this board have any sense or insight into this business? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boney feet 0 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Where's Linda Schmidt when you need her? She should at least be the regular weekend anchor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceManNYR 222 Posted August 25, 2008 Author Share Posted August 25, 2008 Speaking of weekends, it seems the My9 anchors change every week. Lynda Lopez is on maternity leave and Mike Gilliam was off last and this weekend. Jennifer Jordan anchored this and last Saturday and Megan Vega anchored this and last Sunday. Before that Giovanna Drpic was also anchoring with Mike and solo on weekends. Am I correct that with GDNY, Karen Hepp is now the co-anchor of GDNY Wake Up 4:30am-6am, a sub when Jodi is off and Christina Park is back to anchoring on weekends and reporting?

cbs2idiots 21 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Why is Greg Kelly anchoring at all. He is awful and GDNY is unwatchable. Is Greg and Jodi the new anchors for the midday news? I have seem them anchoring that newscast together since last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TellyGenic 32 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 They used Karen Hepp tonight at 10pm. Karen used to be the weekend anchor till she got promoted to GDNY and Christina Park went back to weekend anchoring. Except that yesterday and this morning, it was Christina Park co-anchoring the early part of GDNY with Reid Lamberty. Maybe Christina and Karen have switched time slots yet again... ???

IceManNYR 222 Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 I wonder what will come first, a regular anchor schedule for GDNY and FOX5 News Weekends or FOX5 News in HD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMA 135 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Probably HD, though that's not going to be too soon either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
