I liked it the first time when it was called CNN Pipeline.

Part of me thinks that he's going to sit out for a few weeks, and then come back with his tail between his legs. At least, given the way that Suzanna spoke about him.

Thank you! I wasn't sure if this should be a whole new thread or not. I'm curious to see how they handle this on the show tomorrow morning.

Hey Scripps, I have a million dollar idea for you. Acquire all the WI Stations and do the following: New Newscast - Wisconsin Tonight (6:30pm) - Yeah, I know. You've tried it before and it didn't work. Now you have 3 markets more worth of stories to tell in 30 minutes. Make it a deeper look at stories from across the state. Anchor it out of either WTMJ or WKOW. Model it after KARE11's Breaking the News. Make sure it's not just a Milwaukee/Madison-focused newscast. Air it state wide. Replay it on the sub channels at 9:30pm. Merge "Wake Up Wisconsin Weekend" with "TMJ4 Today Saturd

I'm curious to see who gobbles up the WI stations. The amount of stations that would need to be divested made me think Gray wouldn't have been a good fit, but obviously they saw things differently.

I liked the part where the F-Bomb was broadcast on a cable channel for children. I'm surprised they didn't air the game on a 7 second delay.

https://cnnpressroom.blogs.cnn.com/2021/01/11/cnn-announces-new-washington-based-anchor-roles/ The most notable change: The Situation Room becomes an hour-long program. Is this the beginning of the end for Wolf Blitzer at CNN?

I must be in the minority. I had flawless video for the entire game. It made me wish the NFL would launch their own streaming service.

Cross-promotion or weird fever dream presentation of the NFL?

They better get Carrie Underwood to sing: “Waiting all morning for Wednesday Afternoon!”

And now a live look at the NFL Scheduling team: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-schedule-changes-team-by-team-adjustments-after-patriots-vs-broncos-is-postponed-to-week-6/ How much longer do we have to wait for Week 18 to be added?

Same here, with WFRV. I'm legitimately surprised that WFRV is allowed to air the game, with the Packers being the actual... (original?) Monday night game. A more interesting situation would have been if WFRV or WMAZ had the rights to air Packers/Falcons MNF locally and what they would have done with Chiefs/Pats. (WLUK-FOX and WSB-ABC each have the rights, in case you were curious.)

If I recall correctly... I think when that set first launched it was an actual screen, but it looked washed out on TV. At some point they swapped to a chroma-keyed faux-monitor but it always looked really grainy like it was a bad key or something. I wish I had a screen cap to show what I'm talking about.
