Joseph Suttner gets a big promotion at KING 5's programming dept. He's been at K5 for a long haul. Here's his post:
"I often joke there is no such thing as “breaking lifestyle news”… but I think this qualifies…
After a decade at New Day Northwest… today it was announced I am the new senior executive producer of KING 5 Evening! I am thrilled to have the opportunity to lead this iconic show as it approaches the start of its 40th season!
And the best news for me is I’m not leaving New Day… I will now EP both shows to further unify KING 5’s local programming department!"
His first move will likely be to find a new talent to replace Jim Dever at Evening.
I think he would also need to replace Kim Holcomb as well. I honestly thought Evening was getting cancelled. But it is certainly a legacy show in the northwest so glad to see it isn’t gone yet.
ReplyDeleteThey don't need three co-hosts, but one probably needs to be a female for balance.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Joseph on his new role. He has a lot of work ahead of him to get Evening's talent roster built back up, and I look forward to seeing who he brings in.
