Dang. Conchetta. The verbal errors while reporting the news are stunning. Yesterday's "visibility is 1/4 INCH" was stunning. We are keeping a daily tally of the obvious misfires, and they are adding up. Does anyone at the station notice this stuff? Does Conchetta know the extent of the mistakes? Chris Thomas. What is with the sing-song delivery? The news audience isn't made up totally of a group of 4 year olds expecting story time. He's impossible to listen to. Hear the voice - change the channel. Just painful. read more

Please learn how to pronounce Mokelumne, Brandon. You're embarrassing yourself and you are now part of the, I DON'T CARE, population. If lives matter now to the point of fire, theft and death then learning about the history of our indigenous peoples where you live do to. It's an indigenous word from the Miwak people for "People of the fish" because the Mokelumne River once was home to those who found their home and living there. If you know anything about the state of California, you know so many of its original inhabitants gave it what we now find so fascinating and beautiful. Pronounced: Moe kul o me I'm a California girl, born in Modesto not far from the Mokelumne and Stanislaus Rivers. Both great places to visit and enjoy for rafting, hiking and camping, mountain biking. Or just take a beautiful day trip to see the old covered bridge a historic land mark in Knights Ferry. read more

Horrible news cast everywhere in Sacramento. Not much to choose from. Aww man!! Chris Thomas cracks me up though!! Is that his real voice?!! read more

So now we have Elisha Machado as anchor, fresh from her stint at Fox61 in Connecticut, preceded by her stint at KION in Salinas. She is so inauthentic that it is hard to watch. It's like a high school student pretending to be a news anchor. Her voice is somewhere between a squeak and a squeal, and her countenance reveals total false confidence. Check out her Instagram page (@elishamachadotv) and you'll see she loves sweets, dancing with her news crew, and herself as she parades her sophomoric version of fashion sense. She presents as pretty shallow for having a political science degree from Boston University. I watched some of her clips from other stations and she ad libs like someone very uncomfortable with unscripted banter. It makes you wonder if she has the intellect or critical thinking skills prerequisite for serious journalism. I do not like leaving flaming posts, but this station has to own their talent choices, And Ms. Machado needs more time in the minor leagues before she's allowed into a major market. read more

ABC10 used to be my station of choice for news til they got rid of Keva and Dan. I watched for the first 15 years when I moved to Sac. Now it's horrible. Bring back Keva and Dan. read more

We are not enjoying watching ABC 10 news any longer. We find ourselves watching a different channel, then tuning in to ABC world news in the evening. In the morning we start out with another news program, then tune to Good Morning America once it starts. Also, Good Morning America is now 2 hours on Saturday morning, but ABC 10 Sacramento cuts it off at 8 and gives us local news rather than allowing us to see the last hour of GMA...can't find a place on their website to comment about it. read more

Chris Thomas and Maddison Wade. Are the best. I've worked in hospitals for 40 plus years and find Chris to be an extremely talented reporter!!! read more

Sorry channel 10. We had to switch to another channel. I can't put up with channel 10 keeps cutting out. This had been going on for months. I have left messages and sent emails with my complaint. I have not gotten any response back. All my other channels are fine. Same problem with other TVs in the house. read more

We're officially done with channel 10 news, we've switched..... Why change it up so much, if it's to draw a younger following, I don't believe most watch the news on tv like we do, they have other devices to get current info. I might be wrong. Please don't get rid of Rob Carlmark, he's fantastic! read more

how do I give a 1/2 star ,, Megan Telas needs to go ,she among other young hopefuls are not up to par ......... sorry but I'm back to channel 3 everyone that was good, ... you (channel 10 mgmt.) got rid off ........ You know sometimes it's worth paying for talent , obviously channel 10 cares only about the bottom line ...... sad ......... it was really starting to be a good channel ....... Megan T and her (I'm all that) attitude is not good ......... read more

Megan telles was the biggest reason I watched ABC 10 mornings. She was perfect for a morning show. Smoothe, calm and of course easy to look at. Now we got this britney lady who speaks at 100 miles an hour at full volume. When ever she comes on I'm like "gd woman it's only 7am slow your freaking roll, this is only my first cup of coffee. With my man walt greys experience and maturity, mark s Allen's upbeat but not over the top smiling commentary it was a good balance. Then you had this woman with giant glasses...I don't wanna put people down but I can't watch anymore. Btw the LNT people.... every time their commercial comes on I can't help but roll my eyes. The little handsome guy tries his best to look ernest in every shot. Like, stop worrying about trying to look like a grizzled reporter and just report. This guy walks around Sacramento rail yards strategically peeking over unguarded fences as if he's reporting in Syria. Get over yourself. Then there is the pretty lady who tries her best not to look pretty by wearing old man ped ifile glasses. Wearing a vintage army jacket and never smiling. Last but not least is the black guy. Sorry I don't know any of their names. He's just corny. Like I'm more black than him and I'm not black. In closing you guys should drug test britney. It's morning blend, not morning meth. read more

Wow!!!Channel 10 ABC you lost!!! Just saw Dina Kupfer on Channel 13!!!Good for her!!!Too bad for you!! Losers! Now I hope we see Rob Carlmark on another channel soon! When he acquires some sartorial acumen he will be an asset ! Oh,well Maybe someday!! Buh bye!! read more

SIT-REP This review is specific to their www.news10.net website. SET-UP I LOVE the layout of the station's information quadrants. At the very top is the "INTERACTIVE CRIME MAPS" link which seems to be a nod to the paranoia of our community fanaticism, BUT they are still hella fun to go through and chart crime in your neighborhood. However, the meat & potatoes of this site is truly in the NEWS BRIEFS layed out on the left hand side: these headlined information briefs do a far better job in my opinion of laying out the news than the website news organs of AOL and Yahoo. The added benefit is that it features more LOCAL NEWS that I don't have to wade thru pop-culture crap to find. On the top right quadrant I also find a nifty Weather Forecast that 9 times out of 10 beats the information on my iPhone. But would I expect any different? News 10 is here in Sacramento with their own meteorology team giving constant updates, not Steve Jobs and company trying to predict from their posh homes. NOT that this is any fault of my iPhone, but rather of the information streaming into it. THE LOWDOWN I love the news product and current information I get from News Channel 10 every day. read more

I honestly had no clue that so many viewers felt the same way I do about the direction News 10 has taken. What an an unmitigated train wreck! I don't know if it's possible to count the many ways that news 10 has gone wrong in the last year or so. But I'll try. 1. They let venerable journalists, read: "old white guys", Tim Dailey, Dave Marquis, George Warren, and photo journalist Mark Pepper "retire". Together these four had about 100 years of journalism experience. Little did we know the "retirement" of these four was just the beginning. 2. Next to go was the very well liked Dan Elliott, another old white guy. 3. But in a surprising twist Abc 10 failed to retain Ryan Yamamoto and his wife Suzanne Phan, who are, wait for it... Asian! So what can we deduce from this? Apparently ABC 10 isn't really against old white reporters, they're just cheap and not interested in keeping personalities that viewers actually like! 4. Then other well liked reporters were canned: Brian May and Melissa Crowley are the first that come to mind. 5. Then they renovated the news room into this brown, wooden, open-air, dormitory looking debacle. News anchors went from working as a Duo to now being by themselves standing behind a silly little podium while cameras zoom in and out like annoying little flies around a pile of turd. 6. Speaking of all those cameras, ABC 10 now resembles the set of TMZ! One static camera isn't enough, heck 3 static cameras aren't enough. Today I was watching poor old Walt Grey deliver a commentary on the nuclear threat from North Korea, he was speaking into a static camera about a very serious threat while a, let's call it a roving camera, swooped and soared behind the static camera. First the roving camera is on the right, cut to the static camera, cut back to the roving camera and now it's on the left! Oooo exciting! But let's make sure that we get a little bit of the static camera in the shot with the roving camera, for what? Aesthetics? It makes me dizzy at times. Sometimes I think the roving camera operator must have the shakes! That's what i want at 6am... 7. Next, they can Dale and Christina... Enough said. 8. Now let's talk about that abortion of a Morning Show they call Morning Blend. Megan what's-her-face belongs on a street corner barking at tourists to buy worm filled tequila, not as the face of a morning news program. Man is she awful! And Mark Allen, whose shtick has never been funny, hip, or prescient needs to just stay off tv. He's got to be pushing 60 by now yet he still dresses and acts like he did 35 years ago when he was on 102.5. I get it, ABC 10 is trying to appeal to millennials so therefore you must make your on-screen Talent relatable, right? So let's have Mark dress up like he's a 20 year old GQ model and we'll have poor Rob, who is a very good meteorologist, look like he just rolled out of bed. Because that's hip, right? Screw professionalism, let's just go for what's hip. Bed head, ratted jeans and dirty running shoes. Solid bro. 9. LNT. Hahaha hahaha hahaha. Whatever. 10. "Storytellers". Uh huh, whatever you need to tell yourself ABC 10 to make yourself sound relevant. The guerilla style camera work of their new field reporters-John, Luciana, and that other guy who doesn't shave - is just preposterous. If we want bouncing camera shots then we'll watch actual reporters who are embedded in Afghanistan or Syria running for their lives. Not some local hack trying to drum up drama about geese or the fog in Sacramento. 11. The new anchors. Fire old white anchors, check. Bring in someone not white even if he has no camera presence, check. Chris whatever his name is, I call him Chris the Whisperer, is just horrid. Hi I'm Chris, 100 Syrians were bombed in a chemical attack today but look... I'm still smiling! The other new anchor, i don't even know her name. Whatever. 12. Good luck Walt and Monica. You're going to need it. You've got three things going against you, you're both older, you both cost the most to employ, and... You're white! It's only a matter of time before these two veterans are canned for cheaper and more racially diverse stand-ins. 13. The real reason I'm writing this long review about ABC 10 is I woke up this morning to read that Dina is not having her contract renewed. A beaming, positive presence with no ego or pretenses is being let go from that sinking ship. With her gone I have absolutely no reason to watch any news presentation that ABC 10 offers. With Channel 3, 13, 40 all offering better, less annoying news there's just no reason to watch 10 anymore. Congratulations Tegna and ABC 10, you really screwed the pooch on this one. read more

I am sorry to say that the news at ABC is extremely bias towards the Democratic Party. ( don't get me wrong... I use to be democratic) They do not report the news, that is very important, in regards to the illegal border crossings . The last report I saw was clearly biased. They never let normal folks really know what's going on. I have been studying this issue for quite awhile. I am an immigrant, came her in 1959. My parents did everything they had to do to become citizens. We came over here legally. I realize that the process has become almost not achievable. I know many persons who have been waiting years for their process. ABC ,really, hardly ever shows what's going on in Texas and the other states that are dealing with the thousand of migrants coming here every day. I have never seen a report as to the hundred of thousands that have come already. Shame on you for not reporting news as it is, and staying silent due to your bias politics. No wonder your reviews here are so low. read more

I would have to agree with the majority of the reviews on this page....It just seems like total chaos on this news station currently... I as well have switched back to Channel 3 news....professional, no joking around....I do though wait and watch Monica Wood's forecast...she is a breath of fresh air, knows her profession and is able to inform us about the weather far beyond the "regular", "usual" forecasts on competing channels. I ask myself....is it my age, is it the hot weather, and why am I so annoyed by the voices of the traffic and anchor employees!! Hurts my ears....I wish the best to Walt Grey and Monica Woods...they continue to be my favorites. read more

This may be one of worst new shows on the air. They anchor, Megan, looks like she just came in from clubbing and the chatter is endless about entertainment with Marcus Allen taking up what seems to be a big chunk of the show. He is fine but belongs on a late afternoon news segment instead. Walt and Rob are fine and provide real information while Megan reads a few headlines with absolutely no depth. She belongs on the entertainment page and certainly she should not be dealing with real news. Lot of the stuff is showing cute pictures of kids and animals with talk about dates and other endless chatter. The set looks like an Ikea showroom and the folks roam around like they are window shopping for a couch or something. We watch the show mainly for laughs before breakfast then turn to one of the other local channels. read more

I love the Channel 10 family, there have been a lot of changes on Channel 10 throughout the years...I have to say I really enjoy the anchors and I really enjoy the heart felt stories... Ariane Datil has been such a pleasant additions to the Channel 10 news family she seems so peasant and shares her wonderful stories...sounds as though she has a "Big" heart and I like how she shares the positive messages with her audience...please keep her! As well as Walt Grey, Mark S. Allen, Monica Woods when she appears is always a pleasant sound on the show... Thank you so much Channel 10 for keeping my interest... Sincerely, Kathy Wood and family read more

Terrible! I used to enjoy watching News 10 with Dale and Christina. Since their contracts were not renewed I not only don't watch it anymore, but it now gets on my nerves. The anchors and reporters seem so unprofessional and inexperienced. I guess you get what you pay for. Thumbs down! Listen to your former viewers! read more

Had to update my previous review when today Megan Telles pronounced the name Bret Harte (Modesto school damaged by arson over the winter holiday) as "Bret Hartey." This is someone we're supposed to trust with our daily dose of news? Please, Channel 10, you can do better. The morning news format isn't working. The roving cameras, the air-headed babble that passes for banter, the silly stories that are a waste of on-air time, and the MANY words that are mispronounced by your lead morning "anchor" Megan are tiresome. And, thank you, I do not need to see a segment about how I can wear my dress/top backwards to "re-style" it. Are you kidding me? Let's bring some professionalism back into the news room at Channel 10. I don't care if an anchor is "seasoned" (read: older) -- I want someone trustworthy and reliable. And there are a few shining stars left who fit that bill and should be promoted from within before they take off like so many other talented reporters who have found greener pastures. read more

Megan is possibly the worst anchor period, I can no longer support this station. Management I hope you're listening. She needs to be a placed as a special "clubbing reporter" as someone posted... it would better suit her skill set. Just awful and embarrassing for who produce it I'm sure. Goodbye channel 10 and good luck with her. Wow TA read more

Wow just realized ITS gone! Maybe we will check it out on the mornings! Still love Dina! I bet Channel 10 morning News ratings went up! Keep it going! Amazing how 1 bad apple can spoil the whole bunch. Welcome to all the new people! read more

This review is only about the morning news. I loved ABC 10 morning news. When they changed up how the broadcasting was I thought it was a nice change. Then they brought in Megan Telles and booted Walt and Dina as the main anchor. I have tried for months to keep watching thinking Megan would grow on me.... well I give up. As a side anchor she's fine but that main just No. I now watch CBS every morning till 7 then I switch back to Good Morning America. Please ABC move Megan to a side anchor position and bring back Walt and Dina. read more

Oh man.... what is this? I just moved up from San Jose and loved ABC7 news. I certainly didn't expect this type of amateur news program coming from our state capital. Brittany Begley walking around with an iPad giving us the traffic from the WAZE app?! REALLY?? I could look that up myself! But I just have a hard time with the camera moving around the room often times with the main anchor completely turning their back on the viewer to talk to the weather person. You are not connecting to your audience this way. I want the news, traffic and weather. Period. Keristen Holmes really isn't a good anchor. She messes up words, she gets things wrong and her voice isn't smooth and easy to listen to. Walt is the best anchor on there, but the rest just isn't working. In fact your weekend program is much easier to watch with Mayde Gomez. Two thumbs down. read more

Sad, that I have to watch this for local news on the weekend since it is the only one on until 7:00 am when KCRA comes on, thank goodness. Today they have some of the weekly news team on who just ruined it even more. Britney is terrible at doing the news and over shadowed Mayde who is calm at her delivery. This station needs a complete overhaul of its news set up, worse in the area. read more

The lnt is horrible for delivering the news so much for getting weather.all they want to do is spread fear horror story after horror story about the Corona virus. You would never know that there is a great recovery rate for this virus from listening to the television read more

I like David Muir, but not Chris Thomas on local news. His delivery is like listening to Grover on Sesame Street. Grover is cute talking to children, but the effect on this adult makes me quickly change the channel. read more

Hard to believe this is the state capitol of California when watching local on air personalities with torn and or patched jeans literally giggling at each other's inside comments. Imature, juvenile, unprofessional and hard to watch. There's a reason why KCRA has been the tail that wagged the dog year after year. Dump the interns, get out your checkbook Ch10 and hire some big market pros. read more

I enjoy watching ABC 10 but puzzled to why in just the past few months either people have left or they are planning to leave. I am really going to miss Madison Wade ABC 10 won't be the same without her. read more

It seems to me that there is a great opportunity for local TV news; maybe for one of our local ones reforming themselves into a real bona fide news station, or for a new one to spring up. The news stations we have (KXTV, KCRA, KTXL, KOVR, etc) current focus is on covid this, covid that... but, not much about cases on people who have survived covid. So, the listener is left with a very depressed and I would say scary scenario. While the reporters are busy wringing their hands on cases and deaths - they neglect the cases of people who have survived. Have you heard of a train wreck, plane or bus crash where they did not point out the number of survivors? Why are they only focused on the number of cases and numbers of deaths? I think you know the answer - I think people are much smarter than these stations give us credit for. Last night, KXTV had a running survey of mask wearing and it was running 80% of people saying they'd wear a mask and 20% would not. I shut the show off before the end, but what can they really expect after the bad picture they are painting every night? If it weren't for the SpaceX launch planned for today, I think it would have been, covid, covid, covid all over again. I am of the mind that (smart people) will wear a mask if they want and the same smart people, won't if they don't need to - we don't need a TV station to create a gloomy picture to pressure people into wearing a mask. Maybe that is not KXTVs motive, but I feel that it isn't just their interest in what people are going to do and they woke up yesterday morning and said, let's see how many people are mask wearers... Like I said at the beginning, I think there is a great opportunity for a real news station (and maybe 2) in this area, that goes out and reports real news stories, instead of each of them competing with the same canned program that really does not give you much in the way of news. I don't know if KXTV really deserves a single star, but I do know that each time I watch one of these local stations, I am left wanting for real news. When was the last time you heard of some important legislation that's really going to impact your life? They're busy in Sacramento figuring out how they can fix our problems, even if they have to make some problems up in order for them to be fixed - https://www.legiscan.com/CA/legislation/2019 read more

Risa you transformed the station to a fresh new way to deliver the news with the LNT. Mellisa keep up the great work with Sac & Co. I can't wait till you bring California Bountiful back with Tracy Sellers. read more

I realized last year, that the evening news was formatted completely different. Cristina Mendonsa and Dale Schnornack didn't get their contracts renewed. They had been there for 21 & 19 years, respectively. WHY on EARTH would you change that?? Journalists usually move around, so let's put that aside. The Bigger let down is the way the evening news is delivered; in essence, it's like watching a High School journalism class doing a mock news report- but focused mostly on art & entertainment. They move about the studio with their distracting iPads and conduct the news hour like a talk show. WHY?? We stopped watching it after a few days of disappointment, and it only shows up if it comes on after a show... and then we see who can get to the remote faster. Judging by the piss-poor reviews since the change, you're losing a lot of viewers and perhaps not gaining any. read more

Wow. After reading these reviews below, I am humiliated for those that have little manners. I, personally also prefer the older format for the morning news. I love Walt, Rob and Dina. In fact, I think Dina is a real asset to the program. But bring back the old format for the morning news. I am happy that a corporate company would give a talented person a chance at redemption by the way, i.e., Mark S. Allen. He's funny and he's doing his job - the entertainment field. I think that critiquing what you don't like is fine. But when it comes to blasting a person individually and personally, it becomes trolling and it's impolite. There is no need for it. I'll continue to watch but I'd rather have the older format. And, I'd rather see more of Walt and Dina. read more
