  1. NN's old friends reunion continues. https://tvnewscheck.com/journalism/article/newsnation-adding-elizabeth-vargas-reports/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
  2. They don't have enough producers.
  3. WTTG producer carjacked
  4. ABC broke into programming tonight to announce the death of Barbara Walters. She was 93.
  5. By the way, the new Nexstar copyright animation for 2023 will be blue instead of brown, more closely matching most of its stations.
  6. It wasn't long ago when the company thought most stations would adopt the WFLA "always on" model of streaming. WGN-TV and KDVR did it for a while.
  7. Not surprisingly, Comcast and Nexstar have reached a deal.
  8. Sports! https://sportsbusinessjournal.com/Daily/Issues/2022/12/15/Media/ew-scripps-co-local-sports-rights.aspx
  9. It sounds like they're going to take Amy and T.J. off the air until the distraction blows over. As I mentioned earlier, it is likely not a violation of company policy, just unwanted attention.
  10.

  11. It looks like some executives have a few more gray hairs. https://nypost.com/2022/12/01/amy-robach-and-t-j-holmes-alleged-affair-prompts-emergency-meetings-at-abc/ Robach's divorce will be finalized later this month. https://www.tmz.com/2022/12/01/tj-holmes-amy-robach-affair-rumor-good-morning-america-no-discipline/?adid=social-twa
  12. Don't dip your pen in the company ink, kids. A company like Disney probably has a relationships policy among co-workers, but most likely just for a superior-subordinate relationship. Personally, I don't care. I don't think it will affect anything on air until they begin hating each other (and it will happen). It'll be expensive divorces for both of them, though! The lawyer for one of the estranged spouses probably hired the P.I..
  13. Haley Harrison is leaving KMBC. https://www.facebook.com/HaleyHarrisonKMBC/posts/pfbid02TpY2ocEtAhctttp9DvyxyacGk6y7b7T2TtkHDKNp7RdYgpihF6Eqky1pnWF1xVyol

  17. I could see Norah from a monitor across the room... and probably through thick fog. (pic not mine)

  19. Although 2023 will be lean times, hiring slows down in November and December, no matter the year.

    In Memoriam

    Those of us of a certain age will remember Rankin/Bass productions. Jules Bass died recently. Rankin died years ago. https://variety.com/2022/film/news/jules-bass-dead-rudolph-the-red-nosed-reindeer-1235414059/
  22. Neville Miller is moving to weekdays at KMBC-TV. Opinion only, but a Busby retirement is probably close.
