From this vid you can see parts of the set.

I usually prefer WPRI/FOX Providence anyway.

So not sure if anyone saw this, but longtime WJAR NBC 10 meteorologist Kelly Bates is no longer working for the station, and it brought some outrage in Southern New England. NBC 10 claims that she turned down her contract, and there's a petition out to call NBC 10 to reinstate her. https://www.golocalprov.com/business/wjar-10-general-manager-say-kelly-bates-turned-down-a-new-contract https://www.newsweek.com/viewers-launch-petition-reinstate-meteorologist-kelly-bates-teary-video-1627352

Well about that the part of reconsidering.

So I just noticed this.

Today, Greg Suskin is signing off at WSOC-TV after 21 years working at the station.

Literally one of the best in this city, I wish the best of luck to him on his retirement.

About time

Even Pat Tomasulo lol.

I could see FOX or TBS doing it.

Couple of news today in the ESPN world: ESPN and MLB reached a long-term extension for 7 years And ESPN has reached a long-term agreement with Spain's La Liga for the next 8 seasons (through the 2028-29 season). The deal includes the broadcast rights in Canada on TSN and RDS. The new deal will kick starting in the 2021-22 season. https://espnpressroom.com/us/press-releases/2021/05/espn-and-laliga-reach-historic-rights-agreement-bringing-top-rated-soccer-league-to-millions-more-fans-across-the-u-s/

On this day today in Brazil, TV Globo's national afternoon newscast "Jornal Hoje" is launched.

Apparently back in February, both TVN and 13 in Chile got some new graphics for their respective newscasts.

Thankfully everyone at WGHP FOX8 are ok, and the station didn't sustained any damages. https://myfox8.com/news/its-over-us-fox8-anchors-flee-tv-studio-in-high-point-when-possible-tornado-moves-across-the-station/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=t.co&utm_campaign=socialflow

Starting tomorrow, Mariana Godoy and Sergio Aguiar are the new hosts of RecordTV's national morning newscast "Fala Brasil"

ESPN has sadly announced that longtime SportsCenter reporter Pedro Gomez has passed away at the age of 58.

Long time talk show host Larry King has sadly passed away this morning at the age of 87.

I might've saw a quick view of that promo last night when I was flipping channels.

I saw that, but there's no update on FOX 46's side of things which it's pretty odd.

Nothing on FOX 46's website

Plus it's worth noting that NBC still have the rights to the Olympics besides the Premier League and NHL
