I don't think they can drop those shows two months early. I get the contracts I wouldn't be surprised if those shows will only be in the late night hours 2 or 3 hours at most on Sat & Sun where it's news all day & most of the night in fall 2024.

Jase 806 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 (edited) Elizabeth Vargas Reports premiere from new NewsNation NYC studio. Updated pictures.. Nice studio (w/ control room attached on one side and small work space/newsroom on the other). As far as the show… pretty standard fare with an emphasis on interviewing the day’s newsmakers.

Thanks for the pics. I kinda forgot this launch was happening today. I also kinda forgot that the new studio was going to debut. At least the studio is on-brand and doesn't feel like a small shoebox anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder if, at some point, they remodel the now old small studio to have as a backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey 725 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 How is the show and how does it fit into the right-leaning vibe the network has been giving off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I mentioned above..from what I saw briefly; it was a straight-forward newscast. I don't watch NN enough (i.e...I had no idea Tom Negovan disappeared at some point) so I can't say how right-leaning they have become. I will say Vittert, Cuomo (and maybe Abrams to a degree) have become more conservative- friendly. I doubt Vargas will, but you never know.

That's all glass not a video wall. The second to last pic above was shot in the control room as they went to break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Rubber 592 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 I just noticed that the overnight infomercials and religious programming are gone Monday-Friday, in favor of more reruns of their primetime shows. Not sure how long that's been the case, but I guess that's one step in the direction of the 24/5 schedule they plan on launching by the end of April (maybe on the 24th when The Hill launches).

She hosted 20/20 and that greenscreen mess that is iCrime (I assume that'll be renewed because it costs as much to produce an episode as her car payment); she knows her audience is the same kind as those two shows and will appeal to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in the same place as the WPIX control room was when they were using that newsroom. The windows are obviously much larger now, though! Hard to believe that area was this mess 12 years ago (and this was after they fixed it up with those wavy panels, it was just plain black walls before that!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Rubber 592 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 I see that NewsNation bumped the 8pm-10pm ET (I think) portion of their normal primetime schedule tonight in favor of a NewsNation Special Report on the Trump arraignment co-hosted by Vargas, Cuomo, and Abrams all sitting together on the new set. I also saw on the program guide that they covered the arraignment live in the afternoon, but I didn't catch any of it or see who hosted.

Not sure she did all of it (maybe Vittert helped carry the load at some point????). Assuming she anchored her normal 3 hr block, that's a lot of hrs. for one person to anchor solo. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring Rubber 592 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Has it been said what facility NewsNation is using in DC? Is it the same facility as DC News Now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Rubber 592 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 By the way, for anyone that didn't watch the above video, Vittert confirmed that April 24th is the day that NewsNation goes to a 24-hour cable news format Monday-Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Rubber 592 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 On Balance w/Vittert debuted from Washington DC tonight, but I'm not surprised... tonight's show was done from a flashcam setup. I'm thinking we won't see the actual new DC studio until the 24th when The Hill debuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megatron81 166 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Is that the studio where Daily Mail TV was taped before NN uses now? I watch a report here and there for Elizabeth's show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMTV used WPIX's main studio, which has since been redone and is still for WPIX; the most they had to do is put up a couple of Command hooks or something to put up their logo in Styrofoam.

Quote It will be anchored by a rotation of journalists from 1-3 p.m. ET, ... Until a permanent anchor is named, guest anchors will include weekend anchor Natasha Zouves, chief Washington correspondent Blake Burman and correspondents Markie Martin, Keleigh Beeson and Brooke Shafer. So because they don't yet have an anchor for the 1pm-3pm block (which I honestly didn't see that coming), I get the impression that we'll probably see Natasha Zouves anchor three of the weekdays so that she can retain her weekend duties, and we'll probably see the rotation of correspondents anchoring on the remaining two weekdays. I'm guessing the show generally won't be Chicago-based when those correspondents are anchoring? (I'm not sure which city each of those correspondents is based out of...please correct me if I'm wrong.
