Radio man on Seattle TV


Everett Fitzhugh, Seattle Kraken radio play by play man, turns up on KING Monday night for a game against the Ducks.  John Forsland must be on holiday.

I note that Alison Lukan is also missing from the KHN studio set.

Twas the time before Christmas and at all of the stations, new faces on cam, covering vacations.

    Forslund the past two nights has been on national assignment on the East Coast. Monday, worked the Flyers-Canucks game in Philly for Amazon Canada's Monday Night Hockey, then yesterday he showed up on TNT in Toronto calling the Leafs-Penguins game. Unsure about the weekend games as he should be again on assignment next Monday night for Amazon Canada and likely miss that Kraken game also.

    I think this is similar to what they did last year except Furness has been doing the play by play for the home games Forslund is missing with Piper taking over the studio host duties. Both really good in those roles btw. As a Kraken fan it is fun to see how talented and versatile all of our broadcasters are doing the different roles and it is always "our people" and not someone dropping in and out like Linda Cohn last year.

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.

UPDATED: Seattle TV Weather Wizard's Finale

Her goodbye post below! After an almost five-year stint, FOX 13 meteorologist and part-time news anchor Abby Acone ends her run there with a final show on this Sunday morning.  Married earlier this month, she left no word on what's next.  Not sure if it is fully her decision, but I'm told she had 'favored nation' status with news management.  Before joining 13 in December of 2021, she worked three years at KOMO and also did a stint in Tri-Cities. Fittingly, this last shot on IG is studio appropriate.    I've been frequently critical of her on this site for using the station's studio to post questionable videos (IMO), but for now, good luck.   Here's Abby's goodbye post: My heart is so full as I reflect on my final week at FOX 13 ❤️ 🥹 I’m incredibly grateful for my time here and for the remarkable people who made this place feel like home. I’ve had the joy of working alongside some of the most talented, hardworking, and genuinely wonderful people in th...

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.
