You Heard it Here First...

As I reported over the summer...WPVI recently made it official: The debut of a new 4 o'clock "Action News" once Oprah ends her run in that timeslot. Brian Taff, Shirleen Allicot and Alicia Vitarelli will anchor. Adam Joseph will handle weather duties for the new show.

I hope Brian Taff continues working on that GRATING dialect of his. Definitely enjoy Shirleen and Alicia...hope they do well!

This is ridiculous. Too many talking heads during the 2.5hrs of programming, M-F. Unless management is trying to push Jim Gardner to retire soon, I think this is a stupid idea.

I've been hoping they promote Adam to the head position. He is good at what he does.

Adam is not being promoted to the head position.

My only is wonder is that, will there be a new weekend evening weather anchor?

I'll miss the team of Rob, Keith, and Adam.

Although, I don't find it fair that he is being promoted over David and Karen. I can understand why they wouldn't want to move the morning team, but they have been at the station much longer then Adam has.
