Seeing some FOX 13 streaming coverage on day one



It's the new Washington News Wrap show (June 16 debut) from 6pm on the linear channel.   The live streaming battle has begun with Tegna's announcement today of upgraded streaming.  Washington Sports Wrap is at its new 630 time, streaming the live show.  What's your pleasure?

  1. I enjoy your posts, and I try to understand why you’re so averse to streaming. But I wish you’d give it a try. I’m sure you know someone who has a smart tv. I’m a boomer and I’ve been watching all the local channels streaming. It’s easier to go back and forth between them. The KING app, and the FAST channels that carry KING, do carry the KONG morning news starting at 7. Only the commercials are different.

  2. Thanks for writing. I am not averse to streaming at all, I just prefer my old school style of watching TV news the way I always have for some 70 years. I am a child of the TV generation, I guess. I know streaming news is the future, but I only stream movies and series and documentaries that I watch in spurts for convenience. I appreciate you reading the post, updating me and sharing some info.

Rebecca Stevenson has left KOMO

 "I am no longer at Komo 4." Thanks.  Longtime Weather Anchor Rebecca Stevenson confirms that she left the station just before Christmas.  Her last Facebook posts are 12/17.  She has the Seattle station Quintafecta, having worked at the old NWCN, KING, KIRO, KCPQ and KOMO.  Looks like her decision.  Wants a new chapter.   She was doing mainly weekend evenings for KOMO.  Perhaps Stella Sun will move there.   She has been sharing weekend mornings with Theron Zahn.    

Where is Frankie?

Many have missed KIRO 7's weekend PM weather anchor, Frankie Katafias, so I reached out to some of my sources to find an answer.    She is apparently taking a few months of leave, but not known specifically what the reason may be.  Although there is uncertainty, it could be a personal or family matter.   I am told she is expected back at some point in the new year.  She is a great asset to what has become a troubled station.  Meanwhile former KOIN Portland chief met holds down the fort.

Seattle TV Weekender Ends Her Run

  So long to KOMO's longtime weekend morning anchor Lee Stoll who did her final show Saturday.  She previously worked at KIRO7 and KREM2 in Spokane and did a little fill-in for me at the old NWCN.  She's a Northwestern U grad.   Weekend weather sidekick Theron Zahn will likely step right into anchor slot.  Newcomer Stella Sun may also be in the mix.  Zahn bid Lee a final goodbye this morning.  She is not revealing what is next, saying "That's for later." Also, next month Komo News Operations boss Dennis Hanson and longtime Production Tech Rena Mullen are retiring. There's a big Studio C station bash for them and retiring ND Phil Bruce on December 5th.
