C Block 1487 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Lieberman is reporting that Ken Wayne is leaving KTVU-2 since his contract is up. Big loss. He was there 26 years. Really nice and friendly guy too. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1703593603061219 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJClementeFan69 477 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 By "quality", I think he meant pushing out veteran talent for young talent, and "social media-driven" newscasts has somewhat taken over. I may be wrong about this.. Scripps is like trying to be Tegna-lite in that regard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Thank you FOX for ruining this. Once Frank and Julie are gone, we'll be blaming FOX too. Wasn't Ken supposed to be the logical heir apparent to Frank Somerville? Correct me if I'm wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eat News 4738 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Wasn't Ken supposed to be the logical heir apparent to Frank Somerville? Correct me if I'm wrong. Well stations anchorships are no longer hierarchy's by any means. Most of you wish they still were...by they are not. FOX is moving to a newsreader style locally...away from "Anchors". They have proved the concept as viable so far at KTVU. KTVU has bounced talent all over the schedule for the last 2 years and the viewers seem fine with it. But only very special eyes at KTVU get to see the ratings. Doubtful Ken even has a clue as to what his numbers actually are/were. I may even say Mr. Wayne may NOT have had a clause in his previous contract requiring FOX to fully disclose the ratings to him and his agent. Anywayyyyyyyyyy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an amazing career. My dad grew up outside Richmond and whenever we visit his mother (she still lives in the area) he'd always remark that he was amazed Sabrina was still working. She's been at NBC12 since he was in High School! Enjoy retirement Sabrina. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ns8401 846 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 WXYZ’s weekend co-anchor Breanne Palmerini is leaving to take a main anchor role in a smaller market. Sports reporter Kacie Hollins is looking elsewhere. This will leave WXYZ with only 4 real anchors for the whole station. But hey... Scripps isn’t in serious trouble... no sir...
