Real estate comes a'callin' for this ex Seattle anchor


Lee Stoll, former weekend morning news anchor at KOMO, has landed in a new business after a short stint at Amazon.  Here's her post:

"Hi friends! Thanks for sticking with me all these years. I wanted to let you know I have a new job that will fulfill a lifelong dream! I'm so excited to announce that I have joined Windermere Real Estate as a broker. Like journalism, real estate has always carried a real sense of community service for me. As a military kid, I watched my mom transform more than 17-houses into homes. Now it's my turn to help others do the same! Websites and socials are "under construction" (like changing the name of this page to BROKER!) but you can always find me at lee.stoll@windermere.com."

Hearing that ex KOMO sports director Mike Ferreri is doing well in the broker biz, also with Windermere.

  1. Fantastic news about Stoll. It's interesting how it seems like so many folks find success in that industry Wayne. I myself know several of them including Ferreri.

  2. Having a TV rep can help attract buyers, for sure. At the current prices, a commission is huge too, I imagine.

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.
