Did anyone notice this morning that TINY ended early at 10:11am and The Debrief with David Ushery came on from 10:13-10:30am? (It didn't say this on the channel guide.) It seems the Debrief was prerecorded and was more Politics focused. Similar to Pix on Politics and Up Close with Bill Ritter. Seems this will be weekly for now.

Has anyone noticed that WNBC has been using talent intros again... Not at the top of the newscast but before or after the first commercial break?

Another sneak peak of the new studio in this video...

4pm... Still no new studio...

Gilma Avalos will co anchor with Adam Kuperstein at 11am and 5pm starting in mid June. Rana Novini will take over weekend evenings at 6pm and 11pm. https://www.nbcnewyork.com/on-air/about-us/gilma-avalos-rana-novini-move-to-new-anchoring-roles-at-news-4/4313567/

I don't understand why Adam is solo for an hour newscast at 5pm but 6pm has two anchors? My lineup would be... TINY: Darlene and Michael 11am and 5pm: Adam and Rana or Gilma 4pm, 7pm and 11pm: David and Natalie 6pm: Chuck solo. Also, when an anchor is absent, another anchor should fill in. It's more noticeable that the other anchor is absent when there's only one.

WNBC's schedule is as follows... 11am: News 4 NY 11:30am: New York Live 12pm: NBC News Daily 1pm: Dateline 2pm: Access Daily 3pm: The Kelly Clarkson Show 4pm: News 4 NY

Here's her tweet. She says NBC News. Dosen't say anything about WNBC.

I Noticed in the middle of this article about November sweeps (https://www.nexttv.com/features/local-news-start-spreading-the-news-and-theres-lots-of-it) this line...(New York stations are hustling to get ahead in the busy market. WNBC and WNJU are moving in together. WNBC is in Rockefeller Center and WNJU in Fort Lee, New Jersey. They will share the second floor of 30 Rockefeller Center starting in fall 2023, with the massive workspace extending from 49th Street to 50th Street. It represents the final duopoly in the NBC group to co-locate. “We are excited about the collaboration that will happen between departments and department heads,” said Schwarz, who noted that WNJU will maintain a presence in New Jersey. “I’m excited to be next to Eric every day." Lerner mentioned a “gorgeous, state-of-the-art, open news operation. It’s two television stations coming together in a way that we’ve never been able to before. Both stations really deserve a new home.”) ...not sure if anyone has posted about it on here yet but I wonder if this means they are building new studios, newsrooms, etc on the 2nd floor? Combined? Studios with windows? What's on the 2nd floor now?

I noticed on the channel guide this Friday that since Miley Cyrus' New Years Eve show will be uninterrupted from 10:30pm-12:30am... News 4 NY will go on at 10pm. I've never seen that before. I'm assuming most if not all NBC stations are doing this?

Just saw Adelle Caballero, who was a traffic reporter on NY1, do a traffic report during a Today Show cut in this morning...Wonder if she will be the new traffic reporter when Lauren leaves?

I don't understand why WNBC can't just name someone to anchor with Adam at 11am and 5pm 7 days a week. Also, why are they rotating David and Natalie at 7pm? David is anchoring 7pm, Monday-Tuesday and Natalie, Wednesday -Friday. This also makes no sense. The original press release made it sound like both were anchoring together.

Gilma Avalos is anchoring with Adam Kuperstein at 5pm tonight. In my opinion, this should be a permenant pairing. 5pm should have 2 anchors.

Natalie co-anchoring with Adam right now at 5pm. This is the first time the 5pm has had two anchors since Stacey Bell left in March 2020. Although, this could just be for today. No word this is permenant.

I've noticed for the last 5-6 weeks that Adam Kuperstein has been off on Fridays and Gilma Avalos has been filling in while Adam still co anchors with Gilma on Saturdays. I wonder what the long term plan is.

Also, Part of Phil's twitter bio says..."News Anchor/Reporter, working at WNBC in NYC.'

Adam Kuperstein is anchoring with Gilma Avalos tonight.

I'm assuming Phil is going to anchor weekend evenings. I wonder if it will be with Gilma or if they will move her to weekdays with Adam once Phil starts.

Today is Stefan Holt's last day with WNBC

Since David hasn't had a co anchor since Stacey Bell left back in March, I'm thinking that they may wait until the pandemic dies down a bit to announce a co anchor? Or if it's Gilma, they may leave her on weekends for now to hold down the broadcasts until they can hire a new anchor for weekends before they move her. It is strange they would announce only Adam and not a co a co anchor

I wonder why they don't just build a bigger desk.

Good for David! It's about time. Now that means 11am and 5pm are wide open. Wonder who it'll be. Maybe Adam and Gilma? Stay tuned.

Haven't seen this set up yet...Wonder if they will start using it for other newscasts. Looks like the space where the interview area is with the couches removed.

Tonight at 6pm: Adam Kuperstein and Gilma Avalos are both in the studio... I could be wrong but, isn't this the first time since March that WNBC has had both anchors in the studio?
