It does seem like that ship has sailed. Can Carr actually make a living with a Facebook "show"? I suppose if enough sponsors get on board it could work but I cant see any businesses shelling out cash to reach 10's of watchers.Newsman123 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 27, 2023 5:10 pm Its sandra ali.

Yeah I caught that too.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Mon Mar 06, 2023 6:04 am ... Continuing the 62 comedy of errors, the 5a local news hour that was supposed to start today was nowhere to be found. The national CBS Morning News aired instead ...
The Xfinity guide said it was local news from 5-7. So I clicked over about 5:30 'cuz my normal station had someone I don't care for doing the weather. Like you said it was national although she was kinda cute.
Re: Hmmm,is the news drought at CBS62 about to come to an end?
She never did announce it on her Instagram. A couple days ago her answer was still "stay tuned" when someone asked her what was next. Maybe she just wanted to surprise those that didn't know.Sandra Ali did debut this morning as expected.

Legal stuff. The answer as to why nothing could be announced ahead of time.

It isn't a green screen. They tightened up the camera shot on the monitor. Once in a while you can see a sliver of the monitor edge, and they also are interacting with the screen with touch.

Has anybody gotten any initial ratings data yet? How are the evening newscasts faring?

That'd give me a reason to tune in... Steve Harvey doing the local news here!!MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Sat Mar 25, 2023 6:05 pm CBS News Detroit at 6PM sure looks eerily similar to Family Feud!
There seems to be a disconnect between program guide data vs. the programming the station is actually airing.
I'm not sure how much "news" you get, but it probably would be pretty entertaining!

Maybe Harvey could ask Out on the Boulevard questions like Leno's Jaywalking or Kimmel's Lie Witness News.
Re: Hmmm,is the news drought at CBS62 about to come to an end?
There is NO excuse for not having severe weather coverage, warnings, cut-ins, crawls, maps, etc. Total embarrassment for a channel that claims they are around the clock.

Another bang-up job by 62 in covering breaking news as it happens!
On my block, around the clock? They're full of shit.
Woe to you, oh earth and sea

Automated warnings were on all of their digital pages and came through the CBS Detroit news and weather apps. I assume that since now weekend shows exist yet that no staff was present. There wasn't much of a risk to staff the station in the morning as I recall.
