Looks like Madeline Carter may be the new weekend evening anchor at KING 5 after the departure of Madison Wade. Anchored Saturday night, at least. And this was awful camera composition. Hello???? 'Get Carter' was a 1971 gangster film starring Michael Caine. So there! Thanks, Boomer.
KIRO 7 has flashy showcasing graphics as usual and naming its World Cup coverage, but on the eve of the Seattle's USA game, NO special coverage at all at 11. Just anchor Elle Thomas voicing a story about Pulisic and a freelance reporter on parking confusion. Where's Eric Thomas? Not doing special duty? That was it? Ceding it all to Fox 13? Well, no sports department, of course, so no nothing. Embarrassing, even for KIRO. I tuned in specifically to see if there was any strong emphasis or commitment on the night before this huge event. I left shaking my head. Not much of a connection to the cup! New ND didn't rise to the occasion. Or maybe she has started yet? Haven't watched much coverage but Fox has good live reporting inside the stadium with Levine and Mayofsky, and Kong's The Ultimate Sports Show was stationed with a great vantage point outside. Nice overhead crowd shots.
