first local early morning newscast in the United States
TheRolyPoly replied to tbrokaw1983's topic in General TV
I'll respond. First off, welcome aboard since I can tell this is your first post. And second, no. I believe The Good Morning Show from WFMY-TV Greensboro is the first early local morning newscast in the United States. That program has been on since December 1957. -
Troy was a popular meteorologist for like 15+ years at WKMG-TV Orlando. He used to work in OKC before that I believe and was a chief at one point at KLRT Little Rock when their news operations got going in 2004 (when KLRT was separate from KARK at the time).

Unless it was on KCOP.

WHDH-TV Boston.

I like anchors sitting on a desk... but NOT on Citytv.

I mean... WGN hired a then-newcomer morning meteorologist from Rockford almost eight years ago. She jumped from market #137 to market #3 and I think people criticized that because she wasn't market-ready to go from small market Rockford to big market Chicago. Today, Morgan Kolkmeyer is one of the best home run decisions WGN made to hire for their morning news program within the past decade. I wouldn't have known her otherwise had she not gone to WGN.

Discovered composers & publishers of music themes

It's Nice to Come Home... to TV 3! (KORK-TV Las Vegas, better known as KVBC and today's KSNV). -
Never. KRIV did so first and has been doing one... since 2010.

Damn. I loved Kelly. I thought she was great and very versatile.

MY 53 (KMSG, Fresno) using unlicensed music?
TheRolyPoly replied to newsn8te's topic in News Music & Voiceovers
Maybe this has something to do with it now that KAPP/KVEW has him. https://www.applevalleynewsnow.com/users/profile/austin reed/?fbclid=IwAR3N6x-077_xEKeFFOZbs-j9InPUknXKAOEbF8UYiEVMUbH6bkvupqXbnm0 -
If I remember correctly, it was the entire day with the worst in the morning.
-
Yeah, no. WSVN is all hard news, traffic and weather, business, and even morning sports updates from 5-11 a.m.
-
Hard news. No interviews, no fluff. Its straight news the entire time from 5-11 a.m. WSVN is a station that doesn't do heavy fluff.
-
Leading to six live hours of morning news from 5-11 a.m.

Eight CBS Stations to Ditch CW and Go Independent This Fall
TheRolyPoly replied to AKA's topic in General TV
Hahaha. I love that Spongebob moment but it sounds true for what's happening to WADL right now. -
The weeknight 10, 10:30, and 11pm newscasts are now Scrippscasts.
-
I'm bringing this back up because Marcelle and Jim are joining KADN/KLAF in the new year to anchor their 5:00, 6:00, and 10:00pm newscasts. https://www.kadn.com/news/the-switch-is-on-the-new-year-will-bring-a-new-station-for-2-familiar/article_059cee46-6c59-11ee-b689-e7532e6a4f7b.html

The weekend early-evening ones are no surprise... Saturdays at 6:00 and Sundays at 6:30pm.
-
Oh yes, he did. I believe he joined WWOR around '97 or '98, under Chris-Craft ownership then.
-
Ernie never worked for WPIX's news department.
-
From the schedules I've seen, yes. Thanks for the promotion. Later tonight or early tomorrow, the first posts will be up. (I don't mean going off topic here, sorry. Hahaha.)
-
They don't even feature her now as part of the weather team on-air. When they unveiled their new weather branding, she was absent from the promo.
-
Another inaccuracy here. Your Life Arizona goes back to an hour at 10am, two episodes of Last Man Standing at 11am, and the newly expanded hour-long Arizona's Family News at Noon.
-
WRONG. There will be a change on WSVN 7 in the 1:00pm hour since Rachael Ray is going off-the-air but I just don't know what WSVN is replacing it with.
-
I think that'll be the first time in their history that they'll be cutting anything from their newscast schedule.
