It is together, especially in a crisis like this. WRC, WTTG, WJLA and 24/7 News, WUSA, WTOP Radio and The Washington Post, all together providing news on COVID-19. Its wonderful.

I know. I know. But I don't think the anchors would like to translate it into Spanish with Spanish anchors from WFDC and WZDC.

They can speak English, or do it in Spanish with some translation in the bottom.

Or they could have the English language stations speak the phrase in Spanish.

Wow, mind-blowing promo.

 

I wonder what other markets would do this.  Guess it would depend on how long the virus is the story, and how cooperative local stations would feel (especially the way certain owners are or might be).

Interesting, but I don't really see the point. Why promote the other stations? They can do the same exact type of promo with their own talent. And if they wanted to do something together, they could all make the same promo with the same style/script/graphics, but with their own talent.
