Midday Chatter: As CBS Net Execs Pace PIX, Anxiety Level Reaches High Point

INSIDE 855 BATTERY...

A tremendous dose of sad reality. So far, nothing has gone down but a whole lot of CBS execs are in the KPIX building--they came from NY, so this is no window dressing. I doubt the suits are exchanging cookie recipes. But then again, this all could be sweet nothings. It could very well be Black Rock showing PIX staff they are ROYALLY PISSED. The emotions are running pretty high and intense. Even the veterans are sweating a little, maybe a lot.

Will they blow things up? CBS seems to wanna think that way. Here's hoping they don't hire MORE MANAGERS, that, they sure know how to do.

  3. Heh. I saw her early in the morning the other day on NEWSY (a new OTA news channel). She actually looked pretty good, and was doing a decent job reading the news. I do wonder, though, what sort of drama she will come up with this time though, with the NEWSY to get out of working.

    1. Because they can. Lazy. Management allowing it. Phoning it in. Literally. Led by King Bill who does the least he can at every turn. He'll milk that until he turns in his company ID. I notice Rosemary is the only one in the studio much. Guess it's a different rule for women at KTVU.

  5. I haven't seen anything "blow up" KPIX since I worked there, 24 years ago. The place has always been dead from the neck up. CBS mustn't care much about the San Francisco market.
