WTAE getting a new set

March 4, 2016 Off By Eric O'Brien

One might have wondered how long it would be before WTAE joined WPXI and KDKA in updating their news set. The answer: “ohhhhh, about 6 months!” WTAE’s anchors are in the newsroom set these days. Sets with lots of flashy screen walls seem to be the trend these days. WTAE’s set was last changed for hi-def in 2007.

Speaking of WTAE, where is Janelle Hall? Management seemed to be mum when the Post-Gazette’s Rob Owen asked for a reader who posed the question.

    I really don’t like the look where the crew looks so separated in a large room walking around. It all seems so unnecessary and disconnected. What is the point? I was hoping that WTAE would continue the traditional look.

    I’m glad that WTAE is FINALLY getting a new set. Hopefully it will be as nice as the sets that the other two stations now have.

    If they’re smart, the new set will feature full-length looks at Ashley Dougherty and Jackie Cain.
