Yep!

The postings for anchors are definitely for 62.

Those folks are producing stuff for the web site, but let's face it, very few folks seek out cbsdetroit.com for news content since 62 has no discernible on-air local news presence right now. They potentially lost out on a decent chunk of political advertising revenue, too.

Yep! If this isn’t launched soon and CBS has to personally step on to get this news operation launched, then I feel the station GM will be looking for another job. There’s a reason why the set is practically done or near dome. It’s also bad they probably will not launch by election time. Like I said, I think the GM and even the News Director are both under a lot of pressure.

It’s the installation of the logo. That video is also showing that the studio and set are near compilation. As for that logo installation, it was already installed as of early last month. I think the light checks, installation of on the air equipment might be happening now. This is why I read that CBS intends to have CBS News Detroit launched later this month.

That video doesn’t tell us a hell of a lot besides they installed some letters that make their newsroom look like a bureau.

I used to have an ABC Sports flag in my bedroom. That didn’t make it Spartan Stadium.

The new newsroom is going to be apart of the new set.
