WSVN refreshed their anchor, reporter, and weather and sports team staff headshots on WSVN.com. Usually, the headshots were taken at the anchor desk with the newsplex as the backdrop. Surprisingly, they moved from the desk, into the control room with the HD Plasmas as the background. This was quite the unexpected turn, as they usually have the circle 7 logo plastered everywhere. And guess what?! Derek Hayward FINALLY has a headshot on the site! He was the only one on the site without one! Welcome to the world of headshots, Derek!
Some people say there is no such thing as too much branding and WSVN’s bosses have to be part of that group because the amount of branding they do during the average newscast is just ungodly. The newsplex is kind of obvious but you don’t have to pay close attention to realise they love to drill it in your gray matter that you’re watching 7, and especially at night, ‘The Night Team’.
So, how many times do you think they said ‘Night Team’ in a WSVN 10pm newscast? Or, how many times is the WSVN logo staring back at you, often in multiples, in a newscast? The short answer is a lot! But if you want to get more precise, our friend TMBtD edited a whole hour of 7News at 10pm and made a heroic attempt to count how many times circle 7 popped on-screen.
I tried counting along but got exhausted in the first minute of the video. Check it out after the jump
KGO reporter Dan Noyes doesn’t like being touched by strangers, even if it’s the calming hands of PR dude Marc Slavin.
Here’s a better video from KGO showing even more confrontation:
KTRK’s very own Melanie Lawson was anchoring a newscast when what she least thought would happen, happened. As she appeared to be reaching over the anchor desk to pinch the meterologist on St. Patrick’s Day for not wearing green, she seemed to of slipped off her chair, and fell! Mind you, none of the other anchors bothered to get up and help her up, but just stare at her. As bad as this sounds, it’s actually kinda’ funny! Be the judge yourself! Funny? or Mean?
KTRK is an ABC affiliate in Houston, Texas, which is the same affiliate former WSVNer Sharron Melton works at as a co-anchor on the AM newscast.
That’s right! WSVN being the first in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale market to do this. They are now introducing video biographies of some of their TV personality. The four main anchors on channel 7, which are Belkys Nerey, Craig Stevens, Lynn Martinez, and Charles Billi, are the ones with video bios. In these bios, they are asked questions such as “How did you get your big break?” or “What was your first job?” and other questions along those lines. They throw in some cute and funny questions into each video bio. Go check them out at WSVN.com, click news team, and click on those four anchors, or you can click here.
