Former FNC anchor/correspondent Rick Folbaum is moving to WANF Atlanta mornings. He's been on the station since 2019 on evenings.

Back to KUSI, their News Director Steve Cohen is reportedly out, as KSWB's VP Scott Heath now oversees the two stations:

New newscasts additions:
WABC New York: Eyewitness News @ 10 starts at September 12, filling up the vacated space of Tamron Hall.

WBBM/CBS News Chicago: Their morning news extends to full 9-10 am, plus a streaming one the hour later, starting next Monday.

And WBFS Miami kept their 9pm news slot with an online simulcast. The newscast is hosted by longtime sport correspondent Jim Berry (

You can see him in this partial promo video on CBS News' site:

Like KPIX+, the open uses the WFOR/CBS News Miami brand, but notice the call letter box was gone, a la KCNC/CBS News Colorado.
But it can still be seen in some places:

WBTV might be also the next to adopt a new logo, as a TVNewsTalk user found what they might debut when they get the new ANF graphics. This might also see the demise of the current logo, dated from the days it was locally owned by Jefferson-Pilot. Still, we need to see if this will be happening eventually:
WBTV has not adopted that logo, but something in line:
With the change, they also switched to the GrayONE package.

I kind of like that logo, it's different and simple, without being bland.
MSNBC is going to have a new Monday 8pm ET show , Jen Psaki's show is getting a Monday Night Edition, Chris Hayes will still be Tuesday-Friday.

KFSN , the ABC owned station in Fresno got the new ABC O&O graphics

But looks like they've kept their nice lower 3rds which the ABC O&O's have on the west coast I'm glad they did... or I hope this wasn't some glitch...

This is actually a soft launch. They are debuting a 3pm newscast next Monday and the station aired a pilot episode yesterday on its 24/7 stream before the launch; maybe at that moment they will switch to the new look in full. The voice over is The View announcer Virginia Hamilton, who also works VOs for many ABC O&Os and affiliates (specially for its lifestyle shows), and has also narrated the ESPYs (another ABC/ESPN staple).
As for The View, it turned out the "new set" is just a refresh and a new desk. Worth noting ABC is finalizing its move from Lincoln Square to Disney's new NY HQ in Hudson Square (planned for next year, or 2025 at the latest). This will include all productions, including Live with Kelly and Mark, Tamron Hall and The View, plus ABC News and WABC-TV's Eyewitness News.
