No credibility whatsover at Fox 13 Seattle. Keep the fun off the platform linked to your employer, folks. Grow up, people. Foolish. Watch it and weep. Abby Acone can't help herself.
"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.
WHAT THE H*LL ?
ReplyDeleteSocial media engagement used to mean driving traffic to the news related content, now it's just ridiculous song/lip syncing/music/dance vids to see how many views can be had. Sad, just sad.
ReplyDeleteThese are three knowledgable, bright people that immediately undercut their credibility with these silly videos.
DeleteThey certainly didn't help themselves or Fox 13 win over viewers looking for serious news coverage. I hope they will reconsider the next time they want to make content like this.
DeleteKXLY in Spokane did something ridiculous on its newscast in the 80s. I think 1981, on April Fool's they hit the anchor lady (Terry Douglas) with a pie in the face.
ReplyDeleteHow disrespectful of Terry's colleagues to do that to her, and how unprofessional of KXLY as a whole for allowing that to happen. I would be far more forgiving if it was for charity, but to do it just as a joke on a newscast is most distasteful.
DeleteWhat a waste of time. What viewer does this attract? Nobody goes on social media to find out what to watch on broadcast TV. And nobody under 40 uses FB for anything, period.
