mbhcity 3 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Variety is reporting KTLA is adding weekend morning news to its lineup with newscasts on Saturdays from 5am-7am, and Sundays from 6am-9am. Chris Burrous is leaving WPIX to anchor the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFTV 484 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 6 to 9am is alright, 7 to 10am is more legit. KUSI is 6 to 10am on weekends but 5 to 7am?! is anyone even awake on saturdays besides for the marathon runners? or they just coming home from partying? lol. Sunday i know the early birds wake up early for church and what not. so thats fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
News4LA 0 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 A lot of changes at KTLA lately. First Chris Schauble (formerly KNBC) joining KTLA Weekday Morning News (5am-7am), Dayna Devon (formerly ExtraTV) co-anchoring with Micah this week, and now this? And I agree with SanDiegoTV, Why are they doing a 5am newscast on Saturday??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KTLA will be putting the newscast in the 5-7am timeslot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbhcity 3 Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Also KABC has been doing a 5am newscast for years with good ratings as well as a Saturday Noon show, so a little more competition there with KTLA in the mix. I remember KTTV trying a Good Day LA show on Sundays with Nischelle Turner, Gina Silva and Rob Weller (of Entertainment Tonight fame)...it didn't work.

TheNewsInsider 0 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I hope Dayna gets hired full time at KTLA. She's a really good anchor. Plus with KTLA doing 5-7AM Saturday the'll give KABC some competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalItalian2 163 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 The newscast is being promoted and is on the schedule for only 1 hour this Saturday, 6-7 am. Father Knows Best is scheduled from 5-6 am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
