      What is going on at KIRO? Is this just a matter of FOX having more money to throw around than Cox, or are the newsroom conditions that bad?

      I do wonder what the suits at CBS think of this vis a vis KSTW’s future. Seattle is a top 15 market with an NFL team, and their current affiliate is bleeding news talent. They already have that KPIX-produced news “operation”; it makes me wonder if there is now a stronger desire to move the CBS affiliation back to channel 11.

        First of all, the KPIX-produced newscast ended months ago. Not a factor. But CBS today doing major cuts at its O&Os. 23 gone in L.A.. No word on KSTW.
        Secondly, it you think KIRO has bled talent, how about this list from KCPQ: Anchors Liz Dueweke, Jamie Tompkins, Brian Flores and Chief Met Lisa Villegas, reporters Steve Kiggins and Olivia Lively and Asst. ND Denise Guerrero, among others. At least Michelle Millman left 7 to join Cancer Pathways. One other thing to remember is that a hedge fund (Apollo) now owns COX stations (KIRO) and have made cuts everywhere.

        The rumored price of the buyout of Cox by Apollo was 3 Billion. Not sure how it was structured but any way you cut it that is a large amount of debt to service in a broadcast industry that is hemorrhaging ad dollars to streaming and internet based outlets. The broadcast media is adapting as viewership continues it’s rapid and inevitable decline.

    Per the bio section at KCPQ, It appears Ilona McCauley has joined KCPQ as well. She was at KIRO for 3 years previously.
