Yup. It’s generally New Years for Summer Olympics and the beginning of the fall TV season in September for Winger Olympics. Some stations like WBAL and I believe others Hearst stations in the past started using the Olympic Rings the September before. However this year they didn’t.

Interesting how all their international bureaus have staff listed by hierarchy, except for London which is just a long list of alphabetically sorted names. No titles to be seen.

Likely some contractual thing. I have no idea about staffing and what not in the UK or if they’re unionized they could mandate names alphabetically. Where as other smaller bureaus may not have a union and they could do so otherwise.

I seem to remember when NBC was going through the collective bargaining agreement with NABET there was a section on who could be listed on the credits.

What happened to the anchor(s) who previously hosted the show? I hadn't read about anyone leaving or being promoted etc, and Google doesn't seem to help either.
