YOUR QUESTIONS on Election Day and Election Day and Evening, Night. Whether it's cable or local coverage, I'll be here for you ---at least for a few hours.
Wanting something to be true doesn't make it so. Have you asked KGO's PD for comment? I'm looking at Nielsen data right now and the 6a-10a 45-64 rating is double what A&G was getting in the same slot. Female demos are higher too. She's only losing 65+, but no one is going after that demo. A company in bankruptcy is going to take those results. I have a feeling you will be frustrated for a long time...
They won't have to fire her --they can't now, because of medical issues she's saying has been keeping her down but I doubt she comes back to the station for a variety of reasons.
I think early on and now the mainstream media (ABC, CBS, NBC, ect plus CNN, MsNBC, FNC) were reluctant to predict a Biden win, a BIG Biden win b/c they feared Trump would repeat 2016 and win...Except it isn't 2016 and Joe Biden isn't Hillary Clinton.
I see a Biden blowout. When you consider Georgia, Texas, Ariz and NCarolina are looking promising as Biden wins. Plus the Covid 19 I believe, drives this election plus Trump's overall disposition spells gloom for him and GOP.
I think Biden is going to win by a significant margin.He will have over 300 electorial votes and win the popular vote by 5 million. Yes ofcourse I could be wrong and it could be closer.
Since Trixie and Trump utilize the same gestapo techniques of fear and intimidation to keep people in line, do you think Ms. Watkowski will be voting for The Donald?
Kari H. is in charge of the weather, and she delivers that subject just fine for me. I also find her very pretty, which helps when I watch KNTV's news (which isn't much, however).
I noticed ABC 7 sent Dion Lim to Pennsylvania to cover the key battleground state. I believe she is the only local tv reporter to leave the state this year for election coverage. What's the rational behind this? Won't KGO be airing ABC network coverage anyway? Could this be Dion on her way to a network gig?
I guess they had money to spend and thus, Dion has a junket to Philly. I hope she gets me a cheesesteak sandwich, lots of onions and peppers --lite mayo.
Rich Ronnnnn Sounds so bad on the ROR! Sounds like he is in his last days. Is the ROR paying him good money or would he be Weeping out the Men's room at the Orinda Taco Bell if he lost the Gig?
Rich - which morning show will go away first - "The Morning Roast" on 95.7 The Game or the Nikki Medoro Show" on KGO?

Nikki is the clubhouse leader.

DeleteHa! His just deserts.
DeleteHow come VDLC has not been fired on election day? No show before and on election day, what up with that!

ReplyDeleteWhat happened to your reported layoffs at NBC Sports Bay Area? (Layoffs set to commence next Monday [yesterday] and they will be shocking.}
Keep your head tuned to news this week.
DeleteRich, your thoughts about the final count...who wins and is it close or a blowout?
ReplyDeleteI think early on and now the mainstream media (ABC, CBS, NBC, ect plus CNN, MsNBC, FNC) were reluctant to predict a Biden win, a BIG Biden win b/c they feared Trump would repeat 2016 and win...Except it isn't 2016 and Joe Biden isn't Hillary Clinton.

Can I be wrong? Sure, but I don't think so.

Yes and Hope Hicks too. (Inside joke)
DeleteHi Rich. We all know you love the sistas but what about the brothas. Marcus Washington is a handsome man and I fine newscaster
ReplyDeleteThanks, but I'm a heterosexual, I hear they're making a comeback.
DeleteWhy does Kari hall have a job. She has no personality. Whenever the cast makes small talk she stands there in silence and it is so awkward.
ReplyDeleteSaul, google "PC Hire" and your question will be answered.
DeleteKari H. is in charge of the weather, and she delivers that subject just fine for me. I also find her very pretty, which helps when I watch KNTV's news (which isn't much, however).
DeleteWhy does KTVU have hosts from 95.7 The Game on every morning discussing sports with Sal or Mike? Who wants to see them?
ReplyDeleteBecause they're boring and they need help plus the radio guys are FREE. Case closed.
DeleteHey Rich,
ReplyDeleteI noticed ABC 7 sent Dion Lim to Pennsylvania to cover the key battleground state. I believe she is the only local tv reporter to leave the state this year for election coverage. What's the rational behind this? Won't KGO be airing ABC network coverage anyway? Could this be Dion on her way to a network gig?
I guess they had money to spend and thus, Dion has a junket to Philly. I hope she gets me a cheesesteak sandwich, lots of onions and peppers --lite mayo.
DeleteThanks Rich! You made me hungry for one!
DeleteLet's order! My election plate special.
DeleteHer "production team" so far seems to be her right hand and her iPhone
DeleteAsking for a cheesesteak in Phili with mayo will get you a beat down as a warning. They are either with/cheese or without/cheese.
DeleteRich Ronnnnn Sounds so bad on the ROR! Sounds like he is in his last days. Is the ROR paying him good money or would he be Weeping out the Men's room at the Orinda Taco Bell if he lost the Gig?
ReplyDeleteIt "pays" for his cruises. Then and eventually now. It's the only reason he still does it. I'm serious.
DeleteWill AM radio go digital in a few years and can that make a difference and help to revive it? I'm in the East Bay not far from the Bay Bridge.
ReplyDeleteI don't think so. I believe AM will rest on its News, Talk and traffic laurels --pretty much what it is now with a LOCAL emphasis.
ReplyDeleteDo you think KFOG will ever return? Especially if the Cloud company sells the stations off...
ReplyDeleteThe call letters alone should be worthy of a return but in today's crazy environment, I really don't know.
DeleteHave you seen NBCLX??? What is this crap??
ReplyDeleteI see Bill Martin (KTVU) is wearing his larger than life, glasses. Whoa!!!
ReplyDeleteKRON 4 new news set. Your thoughts? Little social distancing. Back up in a corner.
