Just think, you could supervise and take news copy and twist it to fit Sinclair's agenda at KOMO.   And you could work with an anchor who used to speak at CPAC and work for One America Network.   I know, dream job.   But, good luck.    Here's the application link: 🔗  https://www.linkedin.com/safety/go/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flnkd%2Ein%2FghuEy4d6&urlhash=Q5Ms&mt=76KpwCkzbUI044PCajFbaNjucV4L56nSN8x4W2d3s3ZlGNjC4zpr_qyOF6jjfWk60J62-9l4-Gfu0MwEoCXBijOVyVJz6S7hwfPHg6C3kAcrCq_7L-_Fd3SPWfQ&isSdui=true

  Ok, I put a few, sometimes sarcastic, words to the main verse of Yankee Doodle Dandy, plus its final chorus.  If you don't know the song, oh well. You could look it up somewhere or watch the movie of the same name.  And maybe just hum along?   Or read it like a regular poem.  Anyway, enjoy the 250th birthday!!  Celebrate our freedom.  Have fun!  🇺🇸 "I'm Seattle's TV Blogger..  TV Blogger, do or die...

Tomorrow, June 30, two years ago, I started this blog to offer Seattle TV media information from here, there and everywhere, seeking to report and discuss the talent and program ups and downs in the market. THANKS to all of my readers and commenters.  It has grown to 349,000 views, almost 30,000 just this month with overall 4000 comments on 1225 posts.   Very amazed and more than grateful.   Here's to another year of keeping the conversation going.

Checked on ARC Seattle Monday morning and Menino and Fahmy were co-anchoring after Majors departure.  Maybe Steve just wanted a day off to process?   Interesting that the new male morning guy, Hussion, wasn't on board.   Or Waldenberger?   McCarron was back Tuesday with Menino!

KOMO's Molly Shen joined Sports Director Niko Tamurian on the Seattle Storm pre-game show Saturday night.  Previously he has been partnered on the Storm pre-game set with Kelly Koopmans and Michelle Esteban, so that's a Trifecta for Niko.   He likes the team effort and I understand the presence of the gals on a Storm show, but he should be leading this coverage solo, IMHO.   

We hear from Gee Scott on his radio show. Scroll down. 97.3 KIRO-FM's mid-morning radio man Gee Scott is taking heat for deciding to emcee a Seattle World Cup game on June 19 vs. Australia, skipping his son's wedding in Ohio.  People Magazine broke the story about and there has been expected criticism, including Scott being labeled a "shameless self-promoter" by local podcaster and colleague.   Scott has called it the "wrong decision," adding, "I chose the job over someone I would lay down my life for."     Is this worth a Red Card?  Or just a Yellow?
