    I also haven't heard whether Chris Daniels is going or not. I would assume he is since he is KOMO's senior reporter and regularly covers sports. Perhaps he just isn't leaving town as early as Niko is.

    I hope Niko has a good time. This is going to be a great oppertunity for him to really shine!

    I would guess Chris D will be all over the team sale angle. Not a bad choice for the job.

      I thought that story had already been debunked? Both The Seattle Times and the Tri-City Herald had stories yesterday saying the team had denied that it was going to be sold.

      In any case, Daniels would be the best reporter to cover it for KOMO as he has covered the business side of our region's sports teams extensivley over the years.

      It's been denied, yes, but there will be a buzz about it with Goodell doing his usual presser and players being asked about it as a potential distraction. The reporter who broke it also broke the Belichick snub, there's that. It will be a topic on conversation all week.

      No doubt it will be!

    The plot thickens as Pro Football Talk reports that the league fined owner Jody Allen 5 million for not selling the team soon enough, not complying with Allen's wishes. Lots of extra questions coming on this same issue on the run--up to the game.

      Thanks for the update. This part of the story just got much more interesting.

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.
