Reporter Jeremy Harris gets a shot at the anchor slot on the Fourth of July.   Talked a bit too fast, which is his street reporting style, but nice to see him get an opportunity on the evening news. 

KOMO Senior News Reporter Chris Daniels has been elected to the Natas NW Board of Governors.  Nice honor, Chris, now work on helping the Emmys to be more meaningful, not over nominated, over categoried and over priced. 

Looks like Fox 13 is looking for a new newscast director on night side, possibly leaving for family reasons.  Also, hearing the new Digital EP has been hired, but waiting on a name.  Still looking for a morning exec producer there.  

KJR-FM's Chris Kidd, producer, sometime contributor and board operator for Gregg Bell's show has apparently been laid off in the latest iHeart media purge.    According to a Substack post by former KJR host Jim Moore, Jessamyn McIntyre has also been moved from the Ian Furness show to help Bell.  The station ranked 22nd in the latest PPM ratings with a 1.2, down .3 in a month and five full share points behind KIRO Sports Radio.    

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...
