  • @applesauce2100 How are the ratings fairing with Romona anchoring solo? You know she had been touted as a well repected journalist with much fanfare by WKYC3.

  • @applesauce2100 Collin Spencer looked like he had a stroke. Warren Savage on drugs...how did it happen?

  • @TV5Alive Yeah they've always been the leader, and 13 was NBC always #2, but when it became ABC outlet, just beefed up the operation, good people, news director, ABC/Disney running the station gave the station a better product. WKYC u know when Gannett was renewing contracts, Tim White left or paycut, so Romona solo at 6/11 and have another team on 7pm news

  • @TV5Alive Vic Carter long held down the job, but moved to B-more at WJZ for lead anchor job. Warren Savage held it down for 10yrs, but quit working and next thing he had mug shots, and had a drug problem. Then Collins Spencer from Headline News, and after 18mo they canned him, don't know why. He solid, a little boring, but I thought he was good. Then Fred was hired from KGTV

  • @applesauce2100 I have noticed that over the last ten years WSB hasn't been able to keep consistent morning talent. What's the scoop?

  • @applesauce2100 WTOL is a pretty tough station. How long has 11 been the ratings leader in Northwest OH? Back to WKYC, what is really going on there?

  • @applesauce2100 Sadly, Nashville isn't ready for lead Black male anchor. It is okay for a brotha to be a weatherman. I was thinking Lelan Statom was being groomed to take Ron Howes place when he should retire, but seems like Charlie Neese will get that spot. Ron Howes still looks like he did back in the 70s. Amazing! LOL

  • @applesauce2100 Monica is just a sista, that is all there is too it. I don't care where put her in front or behind the camera, in the light or in the dark. Atlantans identify with her because she kept it real and worked hard. Dan Miller's replacement was a touchy situation to fix. Viewers in Middle Tennessee loved him and Demetria had been pretty much tied to his hip. I thought that WSMV would have brought back Jeff McAtee. Bob just doesn't feel right for the job...

  • @TV5Alive Fred does morning/noon, but during the summertime he and John Bachman would fill in for John Pruitt and anchor with Monica. Yes the older generation, but new generation of brotha are a dime of dozen, because of the pay and they are not feeling the backlash, so are welcome in some markets, and others don't want, it just depends on the market, and some markets are starting to be excepting too.. THere Barron James Local 10 in Miami, don't know where Ric Young went his last stop WTVR

  • @TV5Alive It a battle with WTVG& WTOL...I think the morning news on WTVG beating WTOL, but WTOL wins all the other news, noon, 5,6,11
