I've noticed at the start and the middle of the newscast they promote streaming of the newscast on hulu + LIVE TV.

Saturday morning Mike was anchoring from home with Michelle in the studio. Today Liz is anchoring the 4 PM newscast from home with David in the studio.

Janice Huff and Matt Brickman are on the 11 PM newscast for storm coverage.

News12+ NJ is showing the NY State COVID-19 Briefing.

Sunday Natalie was subbing at 6 PM and anchoring from home tonight. Matt is in studio for weather. Monday for Today In New York, Maria was back in studio. Michael was co-anchoring from home.

Maria and Janice are doing weather forecasts from home.

Maria LaRosa and Raphael Miranda are on Today In New York for storm coverage.

Noticed the lower third graphic is larger and the font is bolder.

Noticed as of last week Audrey has been doing the weather forecasts from home and today Mike Woods is doing weather from home.

Everyone was in studio for Today In New York.

Pat was anchoring from home today.

An update from Amy on IG: "Hi guys. I miss work!! I recently had surgery. I’m just healing up..... Some days I’m good enuf to social media... other days are not so easy! I’m feeling grateful for healthcare and my hard-working coworkers! Quick reminder that even though we are in this pandemic– make sure you are on top of all of your healthcare! Work with your doctors to make sure you are doing the right things! Thank you for all the concern and kindness. Be back to @abc7ny Accuweather soon" https://www.instagram.com/p/CHdCR3rn7ko/

Jeff is still subbing for Amy, Lee said he would be on Saturday night at 11 PM.

Why are they not formatting their election lower third to match the size of their regular lower third?

The last three Fridays, plus this and the last two weekends, Amy Freeze has not been on and Jeff Smith has been subbing for her. She's still active on social media, but three weekends seems like a long time be off.

WABC has started to show the wide shots of the news anchors at the desk at 5 and 5:30 AM during the morning newscast.

Former NBC10 meteorologist Michelle Grossman was on QVC tonight.

Why not put the news desk back in the studio?

For Today In New York on Friday, they were sitting at the table that replaced the news desk instead of using the other area of the studio.

They have changed from having the anchors standing in front of the table to standing by the sides of the table.

Maria was back in studio on Monday. Raphael Miranda was in for Maria today. For 5 PM the anchors were standing for the entire newscast. Also noticed the weather graphics got another update since the last one in September of 2019.

This is anchor sitting area for Today In New York.

They are still using it this morning.
