WKYC To Debut ‘Live On Lakeside’

Gannett-owned NBC affiliate WKYC TV Cleveland (DMA 18) said today  that on Monday, Aug. 1,3 the station will launch its new show Live On Lakeside.

Hosted by Hollie Strano and Michael Cardamone, the new program will be a mix of news, weather, entertainment, lifestyle and what it called “advertiser-friendly segments.” Airing from 11a.m. to 12:30 p.m., the show will also feature News Anchor Amanda Barren, Meteorologists Bruce Kalinowski and Marcus Walter, Arts, Culture and Entertainment Reporter Karina Mitchell, Lifestyle and Features Reporters Joe Cronauer and Desiray McCray, “Ways To Save” Anchor Matt Granite and a host of other contributors.

“We felt strongly that the time had come to re-examine what we were offering our daytime viewers and come up with a fresh approach that would be interesting and viable on all the station’s platforms,” said President-GM Brooke Spectorsky.

Live On Lakeside is being produced by veteran programming producers Terry Moir, Claire Donovan, Erica Wilke and newcomer Michael Paciotti.
