Nooooooooo! He’s so unwatchable. Ugh. Philip Palmer would’ve been the better choice, he’s already there from 11-12.

Yup, same. When news of his death was announced, I just knew this was going to be the reason. I hope the other KCAL dudes on Grindr are careful.

The LA County Medical Examiner says Chauncy Glover died of "acute intoxication by the combined effects of chloroethane and methamphetamine. The manner of death is accident.” More from ABC 7.

Found pics of the new livery on X. Eeeh.

I’m curious too. “None of our business?” that can be said about a lot of the “news” in this market.

Evening anchor Chauncey Glover died today at 39 years of age. https://abc7.com/amp/post/chauncy-glover-kcbskcal-news-anchor-dies-age-39/15513851/ Cause of death TBD.

What’s the social media handle? Would like to check it out.

Oh cool, I’ll have to check it out. I always wondered why markets 1 and 3 have talent opens but not LA. Separately, I caught the end of the 5:00pm show today and the two shot of the anchors was actually split and Marc Brown was in a different studio. I know COVID numbers are spiking in SoCal - are we back to this for a bit? Have all shows been doing this?

I would argue the brand has been successful for 34 years which is why they decided not to use CBS News Los Angeles on channel 9 where a bulk of the newscasts are aired. Even when the two stations became a duopoly, it was KCAL’s management that ran the combined operation.

Jeff Vaughn wasn’t anything special. When he first got to town, he couldn’t pronounce city and street names correctly which was instantly annoying and why a local should’ve been an anchor. His delivery is flat and boring; he has zero personality and IMO, better suited for news radio, especially with his deep voice. Those annoyances coupled with Suzie Suh always shaking her head in the affirmative at every damn thing, turned me off real quick. In fact, I remember being annoyed CBS dumped Jeff Michael in favor of Jeff Vaughn, but figured JM had the higher salary, which I assume is true now, Vaughn had a higher salary than Chauncey Glover, who, again, IMO, is equally unwatchable, starting off the newscast “hello friends.” Creeper.

Maybe it was intentional, in the way a radio station transitions from one format to another.

What a lovely piece on Tom with Micah. Glad to hear Tom isn’t leaving Chicago and will continue with WGN for special projects. Enjoy retirement Tom! You’ll be missed!
