Channel 7's Nancy Chen just checked in from a hill in Worcester. Drink! Then she bent down and picked up some snow to make a snowball.

Anne Allred at Channel 7 tweeted this morning:
1,000 teens show up on Carson Beach to watch rival gangs fight. I just can't get over that.
Really? Word got out on the street a major showdown was on and everybody dropped what they were doing and rushed right over to Carson Beach?
I don't buy it. There is no Cyrus of Boston gangs Pied Pipering everybody to a war council.
So why would 1,000 teens show up at Carson Beach? Because it was hot. And a holiday. And you can get there by subway.
Were there troublemakers getting into fights? Yes. Did a lot of the kids stand around and watch? You bet. Does Boston have a gang problem? Yes.
But when some moron runs onto the field at Fenway, we don't accuse all 35,000 people in the stands of being complicit, even though a lot of them are cheering him on. We shouldn't demonize every last person on that beach yesterday. Where is the outrage about the two young men who were shot to death and the four others who survived getting shot over the weekend?

New at 7The tabloid-news station ports a much cleaner look this week, no doubt in preparation for the impending landing of NBC Boston, which will compete with its own affiliate because, well, you know about Ed Ansin and Jay Leno and all that stuff. Interestingly, they seem to be downplaying their on-air personalities: 
Old at 7No more pictures of Kim and Frances right at the top - and the toolbar puts the "Flu Team" ahead of the "News Team." They're enabling comments on news stories (hmm, will they get a different brand of commenters than, say, the Herald?) and getting all socialish, with Twitter and Facebook badges all over.
Meanwhile, there's a new addition to the local political blogowhatchamacallit.

Rob Sama is one of those outliers who still relies on a traditional antenna to pull in TV. So he was surprised to discover that Channel 7 is moving to Channel 42:
... None of this bothered me terribly, except for the fact that I now had to reprogram my DVR to record off of 42 instead of 7. But it also seems as if at the same time they made this announcement, they turned down the signal strength on channel 42, so that now it doesn't come in smoothly like it used to, but cuts out periodically, making NBC basically unwatchable. ...

UPDATE: Could be that NBC is going to compete with its own affiliate rather than revamp the Channel 7 site.
Looks like a major overhaul is coming for Channel 7's Web site. NBC Local is advertising for a city editor for an entirely new Web site that will look something like this:
