Captured from the 6pm show tonight

What a lovely piece on Tom with Micah. Glad to hear Tom isn’t leaving Chicago and will continue with WGN for special projects. Enjoy retirement Tom! You’ll be missed!

Is it just me or is Megan Telles annoying af? I don’t know what it is about her, but I either mute the TV or change the channel when she’s on.

Jeff Vaughn is the odd man out, according to FTV Live No mention of Jeff’s last day.

Two years after departing ABC7, Jonathan Novack is back on the air in LA at FOX 11. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2023/5/21/resurfaced-across-the-street

Poppy was professional as to not even peep during this back and forth. A commenter on the tweet said it perfectly “someone who is not black describing the black experience and incorrectly would be very frustrating. I think his style is more suited to prime time than a perky morning show.” I’m with Don on this one. I too wouldn’t let someone spout lies to me and think they’re not going to be corrected. It’s too bad people are so soft these days. They had a disagreement, they didn’t get nasty and even shook hands at the end. What else do people want? We don’t always have to agree, but we should, at the very least, keep it civil.

Mary Yoon at KTLA? please! She has ZERO personality. She’d be a better fit with the FAA or an airline meteorologist.

KABC does this during the 11am show sometimes; I find it annoying because this is market 2. Yes it’s actually raining rn, but how much can the weather change over the course of a couple hours? If we were in Chicago where the weather really does change and alerts need to be issued, the taped forecast would be unbelievable. Hopefully KTLA has a live report tonight.

That part! They might as well call the 10pm news The Mike Rodgers Show. He kept popping up with the most annoying updates; we don’t need to know every time a tree topples over in LA. At a minimum they should have a breaking news anchor. This guy Mike doesn’t appear to be a trained broadcaster nor educated as a journalist; his grammar was the worst. To someone’s point above, this is LA, not Podunck, Iowa.

A look at what’s to come

I’m surprised no one mentioned this, but Chuck’s (among others) last day was last week. During his farewell message on the 11pm show, Chuck commented that Colleen will do a good job holding down the desk, seemingly indicating that she’ll be solo anchoring as the other 11pm O&O anchors do. https://fb.watch/hO0_V_HiiU/?mibextid=v7YzmG separately, why am I always locked out of my account? It’s super annoying.
