Spring Rubber 614 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 The current "Featured Video" on http://nbcchicago.com is...*drumroll* In Her Closet: Model Noot Seear Modelinia.com Model Noot Seear shows us her favorite party dress. Catch more Supermodel Secrets at Modelinia.com. All of the actual news video is in a little menu below that. I think it's safe to say NBC is giving up on presenting news on their O&O sites. It's all about entertainment now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jero23 105 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Yeah, it seems like NBCU has given up altogether on being a relevant source of news or weather with their local stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElliotJones 52 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 There's been accusations of plagiarism/NBCPhiladelphia.com being unoriginal dicks. Here's one such example... http://www.philly.com/inquirer/local/20090803_Pa__cover_of_Del__slogan_is_a_hit_in_London.html http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/politics/Bear-With-Shopping-Bag-Stirs-Up-Tax-Free-52370312.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess 1110 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I'm not sure it's plagiarism. NBC 10 has a content sharing agreement with the Inquirer. WCAU features Inquirer reporters on their newscasts, and the Inquirer uses Earthwatch for weather. I'm sure this extends to the websites, although there should be a philly.com link somewhere.

Things like that aren't covered under their agreement. Plain and simple, 'CAU took the article and rewrote it without a nod to the original writer, Derrick Nunnally. Nunally says this isn't the first time this has happened... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad 276 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 This little Facebook and Twitter like "status" updates change everytime the page is loaded, its not the same everytime. If you click "refresh" it will change. Anyway who knows what direction NBC is taking with these websites, its definitely a nice lifestyles website that is very modern and up to date with the times... Its cool, not sure if its appealing to the older audience, but its definitely appealing to younger audiences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMA 135 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 The aim of the sites are to be lifestyle portals, not news ones I would prefer them to be news sites, but they're not. They've accomplished their aim, and I can't really hold that against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucc 4 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 AND this is the promo for these sites: ummm, wtf?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jero23 105 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 That made no sense at all. NBCU needs to really rethink this website strategy because nobody in my age group (18-34) goes to WNBC's website (or any local TV station) to know what's happening around town.
