Liz Cook MIA at KPIX is Not So; at CBS News 24/7; Thriving

  1. Glad you changed your tune on Liz. I always thought she was a star. Not quite at the level of Jules, but very close. She deserves a primetime anchor spot.

  2. This goes to show that making assumptions is bad. Maybe you could say Greg Silver got his gig due to nepotism since he's inexperienced, but Liz was experienced and proven when she joined KPIX. Good for you for owning up to your mistake.

  3. Liz Cook is superb
    If we lose out, she’ll be National sooner than later.
    I wish she’d stay here.
    Send Gasia to the PTA Meetings in Orinda, and Darya to the Monster Jam at O.Co. A perfect match to their people skills.
    Keep Liz Cook locked up in the Bay Area. She is #1 - by miles.

  4. Liz Cook should go to CBS to take over for Norah O Donnel on the CBS Evening News or take Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation. Either one, she would be great.

    1. @1:03 - Both ideas are insane. Norah and Margaret could anchor circles around Liz and have tons more informed experience. I like Liz but I gotta speak the truth there.

    2. 100% Liz would be much better than Margaret, who has a very bad tendency of interrupting her guests.

  5. Liz Cook is the hottest woman on Bay Area television at the moment

    1. She's hot because she doesn't act like she's hot, unlike a certain anchor at KPIX.

    2. And the most missed as well

  6. The fact is Liz is no longer there at 4:30pm. Anne Makovec is. If Liz is not coming back to that newscast, they need to dedicate it to Anne or just call it the Afternoon Edition.

    This is clearly the problem when you dedicate it to a certain anchor.

    Other than that, Liz definitely deserves primetime and agree she is a hottie

  7. Oh my Liz Cook, a hotty. With her background getting treated this way at KPIX, she should leave. They promote Juliette instead of her after 6 and sexy Sara at 11PM, the funny thing is morning crew is a disaster not as bad versus KGO adding that Amanda to ruin the show.

    1. Amanda is a rockstar compared to Gloria Rodriguez, who talks like a teenybopper. And at least Amanda is pretty. But neither of them can hold a candle to the women they replaced, who I still miss.

  8. Liz needs to replace Sarah.

    1. We are approaching 2025 and I’m starting to wonder if their 3 year contract might be up (i.e. Ryan, Sara). Really don’t be surprised if this is true.

  9. With Liz on CBS 24/7, Ryan is taking over the 5pm newscast, and sometimes like on Thanksgiving filling in at 4:30pm. KPIX did a great job moving the newscast from 3 to 4:30pm due to a mix of viewer ratings & 4:30pm places in a position 30 minutes before the actual newscast giving flexibility for anchors & meteorologists to fill in rather than a pre recording.

    At 4:30pm, Anne is filling in for Liz, but it has been Ryan in one case and Juliette Goodrich on Veterans Day. They are capping it to their weekday anchors for filling in and not weekend anchors like the past or what KNTV does.

    I know they have to say “in for Liz” because its Liz’s show but am I right to believe there is no indication Liz Cook will be back to the KPIX local side at all? They have to figure something out if Liz is not coming back.

  10. Brian Hackney came at 5PM & 5:30PM filling in for Ryan Yamamoto while Paul was doing the weather. I guess it’s true Brian’s weather role is eliminated.

    However, even with the absences they had usually found weekday fill-ins quite easily without a hitch. We’re missing Devin Fehely & Ryan Yamamoto this week. I guess also Sara? They should really give him an anchor role if he does good.

    1. Give him an anchor role? Brian "beret" Hackney needs hairpiece repair first.

  11. Liz is the girl you bring home to meet Mom.
    Sara is the girl you go out drinking then invite her to meet Mom
