Has anyone else noticed that KDKA, KOMO as well as others are ditching Vanik for other voiceovers? What is going on?

 

 

Mr. Vanik had a mini stroke a while back, and some stations just don't feel comfortable with the quality of his work.

 

I actually can't tell much of a difference-- he's always had a bit of a lilt to his voice.

Yeah, kind of figured something like that happened. KATU still has him though and you can tell from some of the videos on youtube that he sounds different. I still think he is pretty good.

 

Sorry to side track but I am curious. Who is doing the voiceovers now for KDKA? I have never heard of this guy anywhere else before.

This is unrelated to the VO, but why did they have to stick their slogan and the website on what was otherwise a great GFX package? At the very least, they could have gotten it modified by the graphics company instead of doing it in-house...it looks ugly. It's not even lined up correctly.

Hi, .. thank you, to those of you who showed so much understanding to me on this forum. I appreciate it. Please let me say this has been a very trying time for me. While the MRI showed negative and the 6 doctors and specialists I saw said there was no sign of stroke or cancer, something happened. Looking back, I can tell you several very important souls passed away during this time. I suffered other personal and business losses too. Be that as it may; I have to solve it. So, I been working most recently with a Singing Coach and a Speech Therapist to overcome my articulation problems. In order to improve, I welcome your feedback. You can reach me at the telephone number on my website, or email me there. With your help, I can be competitive again. Thank you.
