With the layoff of KING anchor Steve Soliz, it will be interesting to see how the late afternoon and evening shows will stack up. We already know Joyce Taylor's name is on the 5 p.m. branding and she works well with Greg Copeland on the signature 6:30 pm show following NBC Nightly News. There is speculation that more newscasts will only have solo anchors from here on in, except for the mornings. But could Madison Wade, who does weekend nights, get some weekday double anchor action three days a week. We shall see.
MEDIA MAVEN - My goal is to publish media news (often with a critical eye) in the Pacific Northwest, covering Seattle, Spokane, Portland, Tri-Cities/Yakima and even a litte beyond. At times, I might even venture into the sports community. You can also see posts on @tvmavenseattle.bsky.social. I am a retired, longtime broadcast journalist and manager in multiple markets, writing prof at UW and PLU in WA state, author of Season of the 76ers, Kent St. and American U alum, PIttsburgh native.
