The shocking news on Friday means that the final national network newscasts, normally heard at the top and bottom of every hour on major news stations in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Dallas, San Francisco, and Los Angeles will start with a different national network voice once the network says good bye on Friday, May 22.

The details starting with the letter sent to employees, of which at least between 60 to 70 people will be laid off:

The new radio era begins Saturday, May 23 (whether people listen to it at all, outside of our phones and listening to thousands of podcasts, I wish whoever gets it good luck.)

A continued sign of the times, as CBS continues to hit rock bottom.

Did you know that during the late 1980's, Brent Musburger did weekly highlights of that Sunday's NFL games late on Sunday nights.
The segments lasted around 8 to 10 minutes:
