One of KCAL's news staples, live helicopter coverage of police chases and major incidents, will continue too; their news chopper has been renamed SkyCAL to reflect the new look:Just watching a bit of today's show and The Desk is actually quite a nifty idea. It's basically one reporter who can front up all the kind of stories where they normally have to scrape around for someone to do a two-way from the newsroom. Plus the assignment editor is there for a bit of behind-the-scenes colour on the current and future stories they're covering.

The post-7am show has a nice feel to it. I'll be interested to see how it does - it's a third local morning show in a market that already has 2 local and 3 national ones that have mostly been around for a very long time (with the exception of CBS Mornings). Do any other markets have that many?
