That picture is quite old - the video wall no longer has mullions.

 

Not sure if the size of the anchor desk changed - it's always been quite narrow.

Yup, I think the mullions were removed in 2018?  Other than that though, I think everything has stayed the same aside from the removal of the desk in front of the secondary video wall used for the weather, and the introduction of the new desk recently.

This is anchor sitting area for Today In New York.

 

I believe that is the same desk and studio area that they used for New York Live when they used the studio.  It seems to only be used for TINY.  Not at noon, 5, 6 or 11.

Really? A new color scheme and text size take a year and a half? WHAT!?

 

I'd hazard that there are a fair amount of under-the-hood upgrades that we might not notice but take a while to implement?

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 suspect both Adam and Gilma will go solo with their respective broadcasts for a while.  NBC was in no hurry to replace Stacey Bell.  NBC budget cuts hurt other O&Os with both on air and off talent, which doesn't seem to have hit WNBC.  Probably not filling the 5 pm co-anchor slot has helped manage the budget.

I’m sorry but an hour long newscast should not be anchored solo. I understand the pandemic perspective (and budget cuts) but in the long run I don’t see a solo an or at 5 working out. 

Was expecting that Gilma would also join Adam for 11am and 5pm with Adam and again fill a vacancy of weekends with Jen Maxfield and/or Rana Novini until further notice.
