CBS3's Saturday morning newscasts, which featured Anne-Marie Green, Lesley Van Arsdall and Carol Erickson, have been eliminated, a CBS3 spokeswoman confirmed.
The Saturday lineup now starts at 6 a.m. with Inside Edition, followed by Storm Stories, the Saturday Early Show at 7 a.m., and from 9 a.m. a steady diet of kiddie fare: Strawberry Shortcake, Care Bears, Cake, Horseland, Dino Squad and Sushi Pack.
Green, Arsdall and Erickson are part of Sunday morning's newscasts (6 to 9 a.m.), which are unaffected.
Budget issues have roiled all media. CBS3 is developing a 10 p.m. newscast for its sister station, CW Philly.

Who? What? Where? dareppy
Comment removed.
The Early Show and cartoons did not leave much time for news anyway. I saw Carol Erickson did a morning weather report on the webpage... frankatlasalle
CBS3 must give Anne Marie Green more air time, she's lovely! Joseph DeSantis
Ukie RULES mick314
Liz Keptner is plain looking? MidlanticDave
CBS3 should pair Lesley Van Arsdall up with Ukee as the morning anchor team.....I've seen them work together before and they compliment one another perfectly! User1234
Lesley Van Arsdall is engaged! User1234
