JoseRM303 169 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Tegna owned NBC affiliate KPNX is apparently pushing out main co-anchor Vanessa Ruiz after 2 years: https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/4/21/tegna-pushing-out-phoenix-anchor Tbh I can't say im surprised she wasn't that great of a reporter when she was at KNBC so I was surprised she got the main anchor gig at KPNX. She's more of a Market 50-100 type anchor/reporter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriangleTriadMediaNews 267 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Jummy was more of a "Breaking News/Live Desk" anchor instead of sitting at the desk with main anchors Lenny & Autria taking turns reading headlines in a "three-anchor format". However yes Eat, Jummy would fill-in anchor when one of the main anchors is away. Jummy also anchors the noon news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenShine9 1508 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I'm guessing WSLS will be getting a new logo soon, shedding all traces of MG? After all, they are no longer part of that lineage... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greggo 337 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Houston Fox O&O KRIV is adding an hour of local programming at 10 pm weeknights starting May 1. Both are roundtable shows and run for 30 minutes each. "Isiah Factor Uncensored" features reporter Isiah Carey and "What's Your Point?" is hosted by reporter Greg Groogan. Carey's show had been running pretty regularly on Friday nights at 9:30, while "What's Your Point" has been a featured segment within the station's other newscasts.

memnews 36 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 WMC Action News 5 in Memphis has shuffled around their meteorologists again. Brittney Bryant has moved from weekends to weekday mornings, while Spencer Denton has returned from weekday mornings to his original 12 and 4PM shift. That likely means Andrew Kozak, who was morning meteorologist before Spencer and on noon/4PM most recently, will be on weekends, although I haven't seen confirmation on that just yet. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RGSJenkins 431 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I was surprised by the Forecast First. Ain't that a Nexstar thing?! I knew former sister station used to do the "forecast first" before they went to Hearst. 1000 to 1 odds WSLS will be getting the WPLG logo. They would have a new logo already when they switched graphics and plus the WSLS 10 logo is exactly 20 years old. Logo debuted on April 14, 1997. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief-O 28 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Longtime WBAY meteorologist George Graphos is retiring. Maybe it's the conspiracy theorist part of me, but I've had the feeling for a few years that this would happen sooner than later. Kind of predicting that Brad Spakowitz (who's been at WBAY for almost as long) will be promoted to chief.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ns8401 839 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 It really says a lot about WTSP when Detroit becomes preferable. It's about comparable in size and probably pulls in more ad dollars... your point? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
