Announce team for Seattle Torrent TV debut






Here's the broadcast team for the new women's hockey franchise.  This looks like a time buy for the team and selling the spots on a revenue share.

    If there is one place this could work, it's Seattle.

    The league is producing all the broadcasts and these are all streaming on YouTube. So the broadcast Seattle viewers saw was the same one as the Vancouver folks got - and the announcers were Vancouver-based (TSN sports network in Canada carried the game up north). The league does have contracts with some RSN's around the United States for games but yes, most likely this is a time buy setup. Mike is right though, if there is one place it can work for the team to make money on a rights fee it would be Seattle

    Spot on, Mr. Workman. When the league spends the money to produce the games, et al, and likely split some revenue, it can be the proverbial win-win-win Than for Foz 13. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this.

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.
