I found this article about him, published a couple of months ago. http://mysoutex.com/bookmark/27147095/article-Weathering%20cancer-s%20storm-%20Faith%20helps%20beloved%20TV%20meteorologist%20to%20keep%20fighting#.VwR1m9bXCPc.facebook

That might be for the Confederations Cup (soccer).

If I had to guess, off-hand, I would say Hartford.

This is amusing: two longtime Wichita anchors both announced their departures at the same time. Both will leave on the same day. Cindy Klose of KWCH and Susan Peters of KAKE are both leaving their stations on May 25 (last day of the May book).

WKRC announced the death of Tim Hedrick. http://local12.com/news/local/losing-a-friend-the-passing-of-tim-hedrick

The Star-Tribune wrote about Diana Pierce's buyout and departure from KARE-TV. http://www.startribune.com/pure-class-kare-s-diana-pierce-bows-out-the-same-way-she-rose-to-the-top/376394821/

Trust me, I'm not throwing stones at KSHB or any other competitor. Fortunes can flip quickly in this business.

That particular night, they only used the sidebar graphic in the first block.

Cindy Preszler and Mike Roberts will leave KSDK. http://www.stltoday.com/entertainment/television/meteorologists-preszler-roberts-to-leave-channel/article_8c27157b-af99-5ce7-8727-937d755f0848.html

Minor newscast note here at FOX 4: our Saturday A.M. news will shift to the 6:00-8:00 a.m. slot, instead of 7:00-9:00, starting April 23. The Sunday a.m. news remains 7:00-9:00.

Yes, the TEGNA buyout program is company-wide as far as I know. Qualifications may vary from station to station.

Is it someone's photoshop? My apologies if it is. It looked like someone took a photo of their TV with their phone. I saw on Twitter, but not from Lieberman.

KICU in San Francisco appears to have re-branded, based on this Twitter pic.

Linda Yu is reducing her schedule at WLS-TV. http://www.robertfeder.com/2016/03/29/abc-7s-linda-yu-cutting-back-anchor-role/

Former WCMH reporter dies

One of my former reporters, Gia Vang, is going to be an anchor at KMPH in Fresno. She had been reporting most recently at KPNX in Phoenix.

Tribune doesn't think its stock price is high enough. http://variety.com/2016/tv/news/tribune-media-sale-1201718095/

KDVR lost power to its building. You can watch the improvised newscast live on Facebook.

KCTV has plucked weekend anchor Joe Chiodo from WOWT to be a 4:00 p.m. co-anchor/reporter.

Former KWCH/Wichita GM Joan Barrett will be the new GM at KDVR/KWGN in Denver.

WTOL dealt seven employees out of the deck. I wonder who was so offended as to make the effort to contact Raycom HR? http://www.toledoblade.com/TV-Radio/2016/01/14/7-WTOL-employees-fired-for-playing-Cards-Against-Humanity.html

An article about Tribune and CW... http://www.tvnewscheck.com/article/91468/tribune-impasse-is-behind-cw-ott-option

I'm not sure. That's generally our worst-rated newscast. I imagine the meteorologist and the male anchor, who also do the morning shows on weekends, are happy to have the extra half-hour of sleep.
