Phil Ferro oficially debuted on 7News at 5pm.
I think he should have been phased in and not just thrown at the viewers so suddenly.
Update 6:50pm: New talent bumps appeared today as well, they have been refreshed and now instead of running Anchor-Anchor-Weatherman-Sports, are done much the same as the talent bumps on WHDH, WSVN’s sister station in Boston. Craig and Belkys are together, then Phil Ferro and then Steve Shapiro. Same for Lynn Martinez and Tom Haynes. They added some little blue boxes for the names instead of just a plain name in a white font, but it looks a little out of place if you ask me.
SVN’S weather team section on the net has been updated w/ info about Fil Ferro (not enough info by the way) but damn! they’re fast…..seems they forget about Bill..umm..whats his last name…? oh yeah Kamal 🙂
Can someone tell wsvn to fix their news bios page so that it works on browsers other than IE???!!! 😀
I do web programming and IE is the only browser that displays items properly. It could be made to support multiple browsers, but it is a pain and really not worth it….
Why does Ferro remind me of Bill Kamal. Is this the case with anybody else?
WSVNer….maybe is because Ferro seems a little too shy for now…but i think he’s completely straight…i mean he has a family and not only for that but if you had the chance to see him back @ T51 you’ll know what i’m saying.
Well i wasnt necissarily saying he’s gay but his gooming ressembles Bill Kamal’s. And why do seem to think that gay men dont have wives and children. Have we never heard of the book ‘Living in the DL’ I had a teacher who was gay as a picnic basket but he had a nice lil family. Maybe he changes his behaviour when he gets home but you can tell from a mile away.
OH MY GOD!!! I AM WATCHING HIM FOR THE FIRST TIME NOW (ONLINE) HE IS EXACTLY LIKE KAMAL, BODY MOVEMENTS AND VOICE…. DAMN
I LIKE THE NEW OPENERS
7 should have looked a little harder for a new chief…dissapointed in Ferro. Thick accent, poor storytelling…any other opinions out there. Who do you like out there and couldn’t 7 have even found someone else in market with more talent?
they were looking for someone local and recognizable. I likedTom Johnston. They also needed someone who knows hurricanes as well.
So Ferro is local, knows hurricanes and he’s latino which targets the viewers.
I have to agree he’s not the most exciting to watch
