Gavin 118 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 57 minutes ago, Action Newsroom said: Project Veritas is at it again - this time accusing CBS of staging the length of the line of a drive-in COVID testing site at a Michigan hospital featured in a segment on CTM. CBS denies the Veritas accusations, but removed a portion of the CTM segement. https://deadline.com/2020/05/coronavirus-cbs-news-project-veritas-1202927556/ Well if the denying it then it kinda means they did. Especially if they removed a portion of the segment. Sounds suspicious!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorningNews 1282 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Could CTM be moving to Times Square? Talks are just that at this point but apparently CBS liked having the show broadcast from its Viacom studios in Times Square for the election. I say go for it since GMA hardly uses the exterior of Times Square in any form on camera anymore. https://variety.com/2020/tv/news/cbs-this-morning-times-square-tv-news-1234848704/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only would moving to Times Square give CTM a breath of fresh air in several ways like studio-wise and design-wise (including a bigger window for passersby to look into), it would also give the Broadcast Center space for another TV show (or at least CBS [News]) to do production. A straight-up win-win for everyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 5262 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 GMA doesn't use the exterior like they used to, but the pandemic is what really shut that down. Ginger would do the weather, and plenty of warm weather segments would take place outside. As for CBS, if they're just doing it for a view, that seems like a waste of money. However, if they're going to go outside and interact (make it worth their while), then that would require a serious format shift that I don't think is a good idea.

A straight-up win-win for everyone. Question, how big is the space at Studio 57? That could determine what the eventual next steps could look like for CBS assuming that CTM moves to Times Square. I have to wonder though how ABC's GMA feels about having a competitor in the same area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Block 1476 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Viacom probably wants to make a statement about the two companies being under the same roof again and make better use of prime real estate. MTV made good use of it during the first run of TRL, but it has been pretty much vacant ever since. Getting CTM in there is probably the best chance of anyone ever using that studio space again. The recent reboot of TRL flopped pretty quickly. I'm not sure how much this plays a factor too, but I believe there are some local regulations that require property owners/tenants in Times Square to have a flashy or high profile exterior use. The MTV studio has never been all that flashy, but it was certainly high profile during TRL in attracting huge crowds. If they do move, I'd be worried that CBS would then be lured into making the same mistakes again as the Early Show in trying to emulate the trappings of their competitors. I shudder at the thought of dueling outdoor concerts. The best thing about CTM and Studio 57 at the beginning is that it was true to what CBS News does best. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure Ginger did her first half hour weather hits from outside but other than that they typically don’t do much outside especially since introducing a studio audience on the second floor. About 1.5 years ago they reconfigured the set to eliminate the windows behind home base (on-air). Even the soft set is based in front of large monitor walls. And walking near the studio in Midtown they have only one window not plastered up to see inside the studio. If not for the “Live in Times Square” in the intro, one could be confused as to where the show is filmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorningNews 1282 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 CBS This Morning beat NBC’s Today for the first time ever... On Saturday. Still pretty impressive imo. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daybreak 269 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Well good for them! I haven't watched Weekend Today since Shenielle Jones left. CBS This Morning Saturday is very enjoyable and informative to watch. Out of all the morning shows, I feel like they are thriving the most since they cut out all the entertainment/lifestyle section of the morning broadcast. If you watch the weekday counterparts, GMA and Today seems to be struggling to fill up their broadcast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadrunner 212 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) Not exactly CTM-related here but CBS also had the best ratings of the broadcast networks in all key demos & total viewers for cumulative impeachment coverage, even if election coverage was soft. Not saying CBS is all of a sudden going to be the king of the hill now, but despite how messy it is behind the scenes/in corporate, there is definitely still untapped potential here for the network.
