Starting the week of November sweeps, KOCO has now gone with Jessica Schambach and Maggie Carlo as 5pm co-anchors, with Tyler Suiters anchoring at 6pm and 10pm with Maggie and Jessica, respectively.
This is a nice change, and possibly a bold, daring move. I look forward to seeing if it has a positive effect on the ratings. I can guarantee Maggie Carlo fans are thrilled about it, getting twice the Maggie they were used to.
The KOCO anchors now get two shows per night each, and anchor in every combination with each other.
It's interesting to see the KOCO strategy versus the KWTV strategy unfold, where KWTV still seems to have the "We must have a male anchor" mentality.
