I'LL BE HERE ALL DAY (mostly) answering your questions and listening to your takes; I know a lot of you are at home and trying to kill some time. Feel free to vent and fire away, on any subject relating to Bay Area and national media.
Oh, please name and town.
Comcast/Xfinity tv listings show ABC7 now having a 3pm news replacing Daytime Jeopardy reruns. Permanent change?
ReplyDeleteProbably not permanent --probably Coronavirus-related but much needed anyway. 'Nightline' evolved out of the Iran-US hostage incident in 1979/80 so who knows.

Yeah, but that was back when journalism mattered to people, as I'm sure Rich will agree.
How come Veronica De La Cruz is getting special treatment allowing her not to come to work while Liz Cook is doing all the hard work last week???
ReplyDeleteThey have more cash invested in VDLC and so...
Delete> They have more cash invested in VDLC and so...
DeleteBut doesn't Lizzy have a bigshot dad in CBS New York or something?
Personally, Veronica De La Cruz could not be on the air ever again and no one would know, or care. Hoochies from the nearest community college can do better.
Rich, all the hippies in Marin are flocking to the parks and likely going to force state wide closure ruining it for everyone else. Roll one up and stay at home stoners!
ReplyDeleteUnique.
DeleteIntersting have you witnessed it yourself, looks like you are from San Mateo. I live in the East Bay, and follow another local blog, on this blog it is the Trump supporters that thinks the lockdown is overblown and some even think it is totally designed to discredit Trump. Could it be that both the extreme left and the extremr right are devoid of common sense? I know there are a lot of Marin people (I lived there for 6 years in the early eighties) who against vaccinations, so I can see where they might ask that way.
DeleteAnonymous, show yourself...I for one am against those who remain nameless on Rich's site. I'm lost at your point here, sorry! And yes they don't call me the San Mateo mensch for no reason!
DeleteJosef is right. We need to name names.
DeleteCareful Ned...you may get blacklisted!
Delete@638P....lol...Trump is not credible so when he talks he is just proving it. Compare him to the governors and other world leaders, even Putin!
DeleteMensch from San Mateo, I gathered from you comment that you thought hippies in Marin was out and about, not taking the shelter in place seriously. Since you are from San Mateo, I was just asking were you in Marin and see it for yourself. I mentioned that I live in the East Bay (Concord) and from another blog I follow, on that blog it is all the Trump supporters that don't take the virus seriously. So I assume hippies are left wingers, my point was perhaps those on the either of the extreme sides are not taking it seriously.
DeleteAs for names most posters here are nameless, but I have no trouble signing my name, it is neither here nor there.
Hanna in Concord.
Josef it sounds like Hanna in Concord is in to you. You got a fatal attraction on your hands!
DeleteIs Darren Peck staying on with PIX? I've noticed that he is still on their weekend newscasts.
ReplyDeleteWeekend, yes. Because Peck needs money like we all do.
DeleteYou the man Rich. I’m about to go from ashy to class. Any idea how much the radio hosts make at KNBR ( which unfortunately includes Bonnie Jill Lauflin ). If they make cuts, I suppose they start there? Ashy Larry, Marcy Projects, Marcy son, what!
ReplyDeleteRich- Ashy is right, you the man! Also big shout out to the Marcy Projects, Larry....You went from Ashy to Classy!
DeleteHow do our local stations decide who works from home or goes to the station?
DeletePretty much standard faire now, GER, considering the virus infection zone is spreading and studios are a prime petri dish. Remote equipment is useful and probably SOP.
DeleteHey, here's something for you to look into: Julie Haener has been absent a LOT at KTVU lately, since around the end of the year. Heather subs a lot. Is she looking to bolt? Having issues with management? Getting a facelift? Inquiring minds want to know! :-)
ReplyDeleteI think all is well on the Julie front --probably just taking vacation time, she's entitled.
DeleteYo Rich, just want to give you a shout out for doing lords work to keep the local and national media conversations alive in a time like this. You are ESSENTIAL!
