qwertnyc 1 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Sue Simmons did the sports report tonight on News 4 New York at 6. Chuck said it was her lifelong dream to anchor the sports and tonight she was getting her wishes. I am not sure where Len Berman was because there was no mention of him at all.

Vlad 276 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Well Steve Bartelstein did the sports segment during the night of the Grammy Awards on WCBS (Chris Wragge and Kristine Johnson were anchoring), if I recall correctly, Bartelstein used to do sports prior to getting the anchor gig at WABC. But Sue Simmons doing it, now that is something to see!, lol. So its not uncommon to see anchors doing sports segments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewsJunkie247 1 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Sue Simmons did sports again tonight on the 6PM news. Bruce Beck was on-assignment at Citi Field, however, bad weather brought down their signal, so Sue filled in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceManNYR 222 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Wonder if she's doing movie reviews next as that position is now open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrfRptr 3 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 It just dawned on me, since WNBC is cutting left and right and looking cheaper and cheaper. And the crack about Sue doing movie reviews got me thinking... Why doesn't WNBC try and 5pm WEBCAST? Market it to iPhone, PDA, Blackberry (etc) users too. Think, they say the audience habits are changing to later hours because they are traveling home at 5PM. Well, why not give them a mobile option via a newscast. It'd be first in the market, and since they are so focused on the web now, it only makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewsJunkie247 1 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Have they filled the lead sports anchor position yet? I don't think they have made a formal announcement, however, Bruce Beck does sports during the week and Mike Ratte from WVIT usually fills the weekend duties.
