WABC-TV Fire Coverage Part 1 of 2

Back


Eyewitness News becomes The News as a fire nearly destroys their entire news studio and set. For the time being anchors will now anchor from the newsroom until either a new studio is constructed or their current set is repaired, either of which will take a very long time to occur. Here is the full coverage by WABC covering themselves! In case you are wondering all regularly scheduled programming has been restored after going off the air for nearly 3 hours this earlier this morning. This is Part 1 of 2.

When ABC7 was off the air, did they broadcast a test pattern, black screen, or technical difficulties slide?

By 1am that morning, Channel 7 began to show the 10pm(pt) West Coast "feed" of "BROTHERS AND SISTERS", followed by a complete "WORLD NEWS NOW" broadcast {with a first hour repeat from 3:30-4:30am}, then the regularly scheduled "AMERICA THIS MORNING" until 5am.....

They are doing some upgrades to their existing set. There are also talks of them building a new set, but it is unconfirmed at this point.
