Hey Pav I heard about the fire at WABC right before the 11pm newscast last night - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Saw here on NBC10 that there was a fire at WABC last night because a curtain was near a studio light. I'm wondering did they do the 11pm newscast at all last night?

I turned it to WABC at 11pm for the news and was wondering why there was black screen. Then I read on 7online.com what happened. The black screen lasted until who knows when. I switched back at like 1am and it was still a black screen. Turned it on this morning, and everything was normal again.

The news desk was not damaged but some of the studio was, so the morning and noon news was done at the update desk instead:
