WTVQ 1981

In the memory and in tribute to WISN's Mike Anderson. RIP Mike, and Godspeed.

I agree with putting Joshua Johnson on at 5P, they can do what ever they want with Chuck, I certainly wouldn't miss MTP Daily. Personal I think they should re-do the schedule to what I have below: Deadline WH viewers are familiar with John Heilemann so that would be a easy change at 4P, Joshua Johnson would be a refreshing change at 5P compared to MTP Daily, regular viewers know and love Steve Kornacki and he filled in for Hardball so it makes since to put him at 7P, moving Nicole Wallace to 8P would be great lead in to Rachel and she would bring in new viewers who don't normally watch MSNBC primetime, and lastly, since Lawrence O'Donnell has indicated he would like to retire in early 2021 (post inauguration) moving Chris Hayes to 10P would help his ratings with Rachel becoming his lead in and since All In is geared towards younger viewers he would be more poised to achieve that and receive a nice ratings bump from Rachel. Leave Ari, Rachel and Brian where they are and the focus on stability and filling the open slots on the daytime schedule daily left open by Ali Velshi and prepare for Andrea Mitchell to retire. Give Chris Jansing an hour or 2, expand Stephanie Rhule's slot and figure out what you want to do with Katy Tur, Hallie Jackson and Craig Melvin going forward then fine tune the weekends so you can really compete. The schedule would be: 4P-John Heilemann 5P-Joshua Johnson 6P- Ari Melber 7P-Steve Kornacki 8P-Nicole Wallace 9P-Rachel Maddow 10P-Chris Hayes 11P-Brian Williams

WKRN Channel 2 (ABC Nashville, TN): Channel 2 News at 5, for Monday, April 21, 1986, when the then-new studio on WKRN debuted (at that time, the de facto evening edition for that Nashville ABC station [de facto because at the end, Bob Mueller thanks viewers for being with him and Anne Holt and the rest here, and says that World News Tonight is to follow, and that he and Anne and the rest would return at 10; WKRN would not have a proper evening edition at 6 until 1988, IIRC])

Former KHOU anchor Lisa Hernandez has been named as Taniya Wright's replacement: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.click2houston.com/news/local/2020/04/21/lisa-hernandez-to-co-anchor-kprc-2-morning-newscast/%3foutputType=amp

The history of WTVQ Lexington.

When I saw the WDBJ news open, that music sounded awfully familiar. That was the music heard on KVUE ABC24 Action News in Austin, Texas. That was in 1978. I didn't know that music was part of the TuesdayB news theme music package.

Thought i offer you some help KnoxvilleTVFan.

Not her, Taniya used to work here in Raleigh, I knew her the only reason for her move to Texas Houston was to follow her fiance. She had an excellent paying job that sad not even a year. Ironically at WNCN it wasn't even a year. I gonna miss watching her in Houston from Raleigh she a good salary and following. It was so stupid she left.

Taniya Wright has departed from KPRC-TV. Whether she resigned or was dismissed is currently unclear; the station did not make an official comment. https://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2020/04/taniya-wright-leaves-kprc-2.html Her bio has been removed from KPRC's website this afternoon. https://www.click2houston.com/team/

Sounds fine to me. Not as weird as every station that picked up Wall to Wall News in the 2000s

Jackson had a massive stroke last January-- his bio remains on the station's website as "Anchor Emeritus."

News: WISN 12 News Mike Anderson has passed away. https://www.wisn.com/article/veteran-wisn-12-journalist-mike-anderson-passes-away/32223015 I don't know if it was discussed but Donna Deegan former news anchor in Jacksonville running for congress https://donnadeeganforcongress.com/ He from Columbus, but can't believe he would leave FOX O&O station for Nexstar. I guess Mike health not too good.

She hadn’t even been at KPRC one year. I wonder if ratings were a factor. Seems like she was given a raw deal. Maybe her co-anchor needed to be changed.

She's gotten screwed by KJRH as well when they got rid of her and Daniel for Scott Thompson and Lisa Jones...

and apparently it wasn't her decision to leave also...

Rest in peace, Buck. He also spent a few years reporting across town at WJLA after leaving WUSA.
