What happened to Rob Hanrahan?

[fatman50000]

Last heard he was in Miami...surprised he didn't last here.

[hkfreak]

WFOR, CBS 4 in Miami. 5PM Anchor...he IS a Miami guy.

[fatman50000]

Okay, so he's still there. Awesome.

The more I think about it, Diana could be hel to blame for the downfall in Roz's career. if Diana did not request a lighter workload, then Roz would never have received a contract from WCBS and she would never have left for the cbs2.

[united772]

Whatever dude, Diana couldn't be helM responsable for the ambitions of Roz Abrams and her decision to move to CBS 2. For a reason WABC didn't want Roz at 11PM. Too much money. The same reason why Diann Burns left from ABC7 Chicago to CBS 2 Chicago and the very same reason Laura Diaz left ABC7 Los Angeles for CBS 2 LA. It happened at the same too.

To add, Roz Abrams should still be with WABC-TV. I do not blame her for wanting more than she got. She would never had been replaced at WABC-TV, She had to go over to the bankrupted CBS.

[obg732]

Does anyone know what happened to Roz Abrams?

[austinkai11]

she headed over to cbs2 only to be demoted and eventually fired altogether. how sad. I do think that Roz should have gotten Liz Cho's spot.

[weatherpro93]

I totally agree

The announcer is the late great Norman Rose, who recorded these opening title sequences for WABC for years.

[ScottBrown717]

Except WPVI, Who of course uses "Move Closer To Your World".

[ctmajka]

...and WLS who uses News Seies 2000 Plus.

[Twigz1]

Just most of the O&Os but that's about all...

[klewis511]

And even there, there are some variations. WABC-Tv uses a more faster paced version, while KABC-TV uses something similar to the one in the video.

[angryrose]

Do all the ABC news stations share the same theme music?

[ryinthesky9]

gosh no.
