Monday's Bit and Pieces for 12/15/08

Here's our update of what's happening around the WKYC Digital Broadcast Center:

New 7 pm Broadcast Debuts Tonight

Carole Sullivan and Eric Mansfield join Channel 3 News at 7 PM for the debut of our brand new show as anchors. You'll see more interviews, longer stories and more in-depth reporting, drawing on Channel 3's experienced beat reporters and videographers. Eric and Carole both worked at the old WAKC/TV 23 in Akron at one time, so this is a reunion of sorts for them.

Weekend Anchor Changes

As you may have heard, Kim Wheeler will be taking over as solo anchor of Channel 3 News at 9 am on the weekends, while her long time co-anchor Jeff Maynor moves to the evening newsdesk as solo anchor of Channel 3 News at 6 & 11 PM begininng at the end of the month.

From the Editor's Desk...

Your blogger is taking a few weeks off from TV land to regroup, so we may not have much news to post as normal during the holidays. However, if something major develops, we'll be on it. We'll return to our normal routine on Monday, December 29th. So, I wish you the happiest of holidays and hope for 2009.
