So, are we going to see changes starting today (possibly the Copyright changing to NBC Universal)?

Why is TWC still receiving Chicago video from WBBM (CBS O&O) as of today? Shouldn't NBC be putting a stop to that now?

Maybe not. TWC may be being treated as its own entity, entitling it to do as it wishes.

Right now, they're talking live to a reporter from WLS-TV in Chicago, an ABC affiliate.
