So now KIRO7 Seattle is doing a promo with five people as investigative team. I laugh at the desperation. Gary Horcher main anchor, Linzi Sheldon, main a.m. anchor, DeeDee Sun a.m. co-anchor and two relatively new general assignment reporters, Louie Tran and Madeline Ottilie. The anchors have no time and the reporters are needed for general assignment. They must have a good producer behind the scenes. This is promotional bait and switch, re-arranging the deck chairs after cutting Jesse Jones, its true consumer investigator. Station is bare bones, cutting with no chops left on the reporting side. They have 2 news reporters doing weather. Don't be fooled. They cannot compete with Susannah Frame, Chris Ingalls and the rest of the KING 5 Investigators. Accept no substitutes.
