Harry Houdini 0 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I just saw company boy Russ Salzberg on both Channel 5 and 9 tonight doing sports. They were both different segments. What's next? Weather? Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/5228-salzberg-does-sports-for-fox-wor/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudioTech 15 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I just saw company boy Russ Salzberg on both Channel 5 and 9 tonight doing sports. They were both different segments. What's next? Weather? He's been doing it since about the middle of March.

NickMa 0 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 What's next? Weather? I've already seen them do that awhile back. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/5228-salzberg-does-sports-for-fox-wor/#findComment-48893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Houdini 0 Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 Great. I think the question was weather next? Anyway, I never did like the company boy, aka the ass kisser, Salzberg.

TVNewsLover 779 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Weather has already been done by Audrey on both. Except it was the same segment, on at the same time, but the only thing that was different was the throwback to the anchors. She threw it back to Ernie and Dari (that part must have been pre-recorded) on 5 and back to Branda and Harry on 9.

Harry Houdini 0 Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 One was definetly live and probably both were, is my guess. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/5228-salzberg-does-sports-for-fox-wor/#findComment-48914 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYNews 54 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 It's a very interesting trend in the news business to simulcast live to different stations. You know that it occurs when in a live story, there's a generic intro and throw back to the respective stations without mentioning the name. It's also funny to watch anchors race to finish their intro before the reporters starts theirs, which in many cases they don't succeed. But i do give them credit for their timing, when it does work.

Colortini 76 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I normally don't catch the news at 10 but is Duke only on Good Day NY now or does he still do the 10pm news from time to time?

RGSJenkins 435 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 It seems My 9 news is starting to be the dominant of the two, although FOX 5 has more viewers at 10.

IceManNYR 240 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 One other time when they did this Russ was live on FOX5 while he did a taped preview for the sports report on My9. If they have Andy and Adam why can't they do the reports when Duke is off?

moshewx 19 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 My Cablevision on screen guide lists Anastos, Alexander, Gregory and Salzberg as anchors at 10 and Martin, Gregory and Salzberg at 6PM. What the heck happened to Duke Costaglione? Did Salzberg officially add the WNYW 10PM sports duties to his WWOR obligations? If he did, DAMN SHAME!

Harry Houdini 0 Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 He's been a company boy since day one. To me, he's really a weasel. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/5228-salzberg-does-sports-for-fox-wor/#findComment-48950 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke's on Good Day New York, Russ is on at 6 on FOX 5 and at 10 on FOX 5 & My 9. He does FOX 5 first in My 9's newsroom around 10:45, then My 9 in their studios at 10:50.

IceManNYR 240 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Tonight Mike Gilliam is doing sports on My9. Who was on FOX5 tonight? Where's Scott Stanford can they use him to sub for Russ? I can answer one of my own questions, Andy Adler and one of her to tight spandex type tops were doing sports on FOX5.

TVNewsLover 779 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 How comes they don't make Russ trot over to the Fox 5 studios like Harry does for the 6pm newscast? And even though Russ has been a part of 9's newscast for many years, I'm surprised WNYW (as the "older" sister station) doesn't have him on the set for their 10pm newscast and make him go to their newsroom to do sports for WWOR's newscast. I thinks it's stupid that Duke is on in the mornings. WNYW never before had a morning sports person, and it seems like all the other stations that did have a morning sports person don't anymore (WCBS-Discepolo, WNBC-Otis). Why not just tape them like most stations do? What is there to report in the morning besides last night's news?

TellyGenic 33 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Duke also does the Sunday 10 pm sports, and then has his half-hour Sports show right after that. What happens if one day Harry gets caught in traffic between Secaucus and E 67 Street? What if he misses his Fox gig? Just wonderin'.....

Just wonderin'..... Well, first, I would think that he travels by train, not by car. Second, I am sure Harry plans to arrive early enough at WNYW so that if for some reason he does get caught in traffic he has a bit of wiggle room. Plus, if for some reason he doesn't make it, Ernie and Dari are there for the 5pm, so they can easily sub at 6pm. The real question is what happens if Harry gets caught in traffic going from WNYW to WWOR (for the 10pm)...

Okay, I know NYC traffic is bad, I know I drive in it everyday...But there is a 3 1/2 hour window until he has to be at My 9 and all he has to do is hop in the lincoln tunnel and on to the turnpike and secaucus is the first exit in Jersey from the LT...

TellyGenic 33 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 No problem. 9 minutes by train. Somehow I don't see Harry Martin taking NJT. He for sure has a car waiting to drive him from station to station.

Harry Houdini 0 Posted May 1, 2009 Author Share Posted May 1, 2009 He would if the tunnel was jammed. Anyway if he could just drop Salzberg in the river, he'd be doing me a favor.
