Ladies night reunion for this Seattle TV


 Some KIRO female folks lifted a glass or two and got together to celebrate their work at the station.

Below, I see my friend Diane Denison Bowers,, Michelle Millman, Monique Ming-Laven, Angela Poe Russell, Natalia Dotto, many more, and. of course, the legendary Deborah Horne.  Post courtesy of Tairsa Worman, who worked for me at NWCN later in her career.

    An update on the photographer situation at KIRO below. I've also seen a mobile billboard driving around the Seahawks game purchased by the photographers union.

    Great to see some of KIRO's best and brightest, both past and present, enjoying a well deserved night on the town!

    KIRO is a great name in Seattle broadcasting, but it is confusing, since TV and radio have been owned be separate companies and have nothing to do with one another, that they both have the same call letters.

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.
