  1. KDVR needed some help out of the snow. https://twitter.com/EmilyAReports/status/1187397550862524416
  2. We discussed that scenario today. Normally we don't have tornadoes in football season. But if it happened with our local team, we would double-box the game (weather big box, game in the little box).
  3. Not only did the Yankees lose, but someone swiped a WCBS-TV van. https://nypost.com/2019/10/20/cbs-news-van-stolen-near-yankees-stadium-cops/
  4. Our big art museum has giant birdies on the front lawn.
  5. We had a whimsical marble cake to celebrate.
  6. Coming to Kansas City... https://twitter.com/alexcabc57/status/1183779822335680512 Leaving her Kansas City station... https://twitter.com/JadeDeGood/status/1184078630705606657
  7. You've been Zuckered, CNN, but we'e known that for years. Carry on.
  8. Whatever "Behind the Scenes" is on KSWB, it doesn't show up in their aircheck list. The program log declares it a live event after the recorded national anthem, so KSWB might literally be turning on a newsroom camera and letting it ride. The segment is 25:25 long. A break runs at 4:27.

    In Memoriam

    Wendy Chioji died this week. https://www.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment/tv-guy/os-et-wendy-chioji-dies-20191008-xl7cigregzavlgbf4tqdnbyw2a-story.html?fbclid=IwAR0DfZqDVR1VfLUMyiQ64dLETnCGE61sxSmoyx8vnqP-hckolQzIDtYFhks
  10. I wondered if TEGNA was considering a traditional return, given the news director hires at KSDK and KFMB-TV recently.
  11. KSHB has found a replacement for Dee Jackson.
  12. Former WSOC-TV news director sues Cox Media Group: https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/state/north-carolina/article235636322.html
  13. Scripps reaches down to San Luis Obispo for its new KSHB GM. https://scripps.com/press-releases/scripps-appoints-kathleen-choal-vp-and-gm-of-kshb-and-kmci-in-kansas-city-missouri/
  14. Lisa Benson (ex-KSHB) is airing some grievances on Twitter today.
  15. I would use the old Tones on Tail song "Go!" at the start. When the newscast ends, play a song with "Stop!" in the title.
  16. Three Kansas City anchors are leaving at the same time. Richard Sharp is going from KSHB to Sacramento. Nicole DiAntonio is traveling from WDAF-TV to Washington, D.C.. Steve Albritton is leaving KMBC-TV for Cincinnati. In St. Louis, KTVI has two pregnant meteorologists simultaneously. https://fox2now.com/2019/09/06/angela-hutti-and-jaime-travers-are-expecting/
  17. I was watching KOSA during the shooting coverage today, and the anchors left the set twice because of armed officers running through the shopping mall where they have a studio. Now the anchors are in the parking lot, losing their mics periodically, with an empty set on screen.
  18. KTVI's Kim Hudson is going on medical leave. https://fox2now.com/2019/08/29/kim-hudson-explains-why-she-will-be-off-air-for-a-few-months/
  19. Nexstar has reached a deal with AT&T/DirecTV/UVerse.
  20. KCTV sports anchor/reporter Tom Martin is leaving for a video production company.
  21. Sad news from WHNT: https://whnt.com/2019/08/09/remembering-whnt-news-19s-ivy-anderson/
