In his first video blog Monday from the Democratic Convention in Denver, political reporter Andy Shaw told viewers how he and his WLS-Channel 7 colleagues had been "bigfooted" out of their broadcast booth by ABC News.

Showing ABC "World News" anchor Charlie Gibson sitting in Channel 7's space, Shaw said the Chicago ABC-owned station had been dislocated because the network's skybox wasn't ready yet.

"I happily give my skybox to Charlie and George [Stephanopoulos]," Shaw said. "I know the pecking order at ABC."
