Weathercaster/reporter Nikki Torres hit her one-year anniversary at KATU 2/Portland and says “Let’s go for a second round.”
This is a troubling thought from KIRO Traffic gal, Tracy Taylor: “Brain injuries are something. Was having a conversation, where I totally blanked. Totally forgot. It sounded like I didn’t know what I was talking about. This has been happening more often since the crash a few years ago.”
I can tell you it may just be old age, Tracy. Sorry to say.
Former KING 5 reporter, Joe Fryer and Peter Alexander, formerly with KCPQ 13, join Kristen Welker on Black Friday at NBC’s Today show.

The loss of Abby Acone was abrupt. I am left with questions.
A quick look at Abby’s social posts would indicate she likes it at Komo. Promoting that brand seemingly up until the move to KCPQ. An amicable, classy departure. Maybe she’s going to work for both like Erin did. Guess we’ll see.
She is not burning her bridges. Smart move. She might bounce back to KOMO some day.
A non-compete would not be a wise thing to sign. Maybe some of these young journalists should have an attorney present when they negotiate a contract.
I think they are more interested in having a "Media Consultant".
I am going to presume that a lot of these people locally who are moving between stations here __do not__have any non-compete clause in their contracts. I say this because they leave one station and show up on the new one within a few days.A non-compete clause usually will keep you off air for 6 months or more.
Not sure about their contracts however KOMO and Q13 (Fox 13) have had a few personalities that have worked at both stations at the same time in recent history. Ex: Erin Mayovsky.
Yeah...I remember that Rebecca Stevenson went through one of those "clause" situations here in Seattle, quite a few years ago..Interesting, that she has found her way back. Oh well, it must be all about the money situation. Abby is nice to look at, but she looks a little too skinny to be healthy.
Eating disorder to look perfect. She hides her “secret” well…as a person who suffered with e eating disorder she shows the classic symptoms with her posture/bone..
