WeatherandTraffic 44 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 If Diane is going to back to the field, her studio time is almost reduced to none as we now have with Mark on weekends and Kristin Byrne is now the main fill in for Roz.

24994J 5269 Posted November 7, 2017 Author Share Posted November 7, 2017 Stacey's using that new 280-character Twitter well. Ha! I didn't even notice. I guess I'm already used to it. Here's Feder's write-up, and it makes no mention of a change in Diane's role. http://www.robertfeder.com/2017/11/07/new-weekend-anchor-comes-home-abc-7/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgie56 3059 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I heard Steve Kamer do a custom promo for ABC 7 for today's Inside Edition featuring a story from Oak Lawn. Does he usually do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5269 Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 It would require a pre-planned (not new/breaking), Chicago-focused story for that to happen, so if he does it, it's very rare. I can't say I've ever seen it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 5269 Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 Lonnie Lardner! Formerly of KABC, KHJ and KTTV out here in LA That's who I was thinking, but I couldn't remember her name for anything. It doesn't help that she was only filling in, and didn't hold a formal anchor position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey, they let Jerry do the 10. WGN did the same thing with mostly b team anchors, however I was shocked to see Jerry. Ron Magers used to always work Christmas so the younger anchors could spend it with their families and young kids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5269 Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 They really stretched the use of the old studio, especially with a relatively stationary anchor, though they even made up some stand-ups for his final Thanksgiving in 2015. He was like the first anchor to stand in the new weather center for the toss, and he stood in front of the desk with Jerry and Jim in the anchor chairs to close the show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherandTraffic 44 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 According to Stacey and Diane's facebook pages, it seems like it's their last weekend together. Next week Stacey is on Vacation and Diane and someone else will fill in. My 4 picks with Diane are, Liz Nagy, Hosea, Tanja or Terrell. Then the following weekend, Mark Rivera starts anchoring weekend mornings with Stacey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
