Rochester, NY Market Update

I figured that since others have done market updates for their markets that I would do one for Rochester, NY.

 

First and foremost, ABC affiliate WHAM-TV is going to be debuting their new HD newscasts this coming Monday, September 13 on their 5am Morning Newscast. They have completely redone their studio, control room, graphics, and logo. It should be very interesting to see what it will be like.

Compared to what they have now, it will probably be 100x better.

 

Additionally, Holly Maynard left in mid-summer for WSOC-TV in Charlotte, NC. Jennifer Johnson, from WHEC-TV in Rochester, takes her spot on the morning newscast.

 

Next, CBS affiliate WROC-TV is starting their evening newscast an hour earlier. Instead of starting at the usual 5:00pm time slot, they will not begin at 4:00pm, most likely to compete with WHAM going HD. Matt Molloy will be anchoring and this newscast is also going to start this coming week.

 

As for NBC affiliate WHEC-TV, all that is really notable is that Jennifer Johnson left them for WHAM.
