brianpr3 178 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 So he's gonna become the mouth piece for the lapd... I wonder who becomes chief now? Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15259-josh-rubenstein-leaving-kcbskcal/#findComment-156151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5577 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Maybe not as chief, but the Markina Brown pickup makes sense now. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15259-josh-rubenstein-leaving-kcbskcal/#findComment-156152 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eat News 4745 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/kcbs-chief-meteorologist-going-to-work-for-police/175373 WTF??? Strange that LAPD went this route. Typically the head slot was a sworn position (usually a Lt. and a SGT.) Why pick this guy? He has no journo chops, there are 500 other media types in LA way more qualified for the SpokesHole job....sure that at least 200 of them applied. He will get chewed up and spit out unless he grows a giant pair quickly. Journo Rule 1: Never trust a law PIO to disclose anything timely. Journo Rule 2: Never trust a PIO who vamped for 2:30 each night. I feel sorry for Josh because I honestly don't think he knows just how deep he stepped in it.

I hope he got a ft gig so they don't jack him around as a day hire. He is a pretty solid MMJ also.

I don't know why he would decide to go to that craphole, but I guess to Craig it must be better than what he had going at KGTV.

Now you made me feel sad for him. But I think you are right about the KGTV part. Worst case he got sucked into some weekend perdiem thing where he commutes to LA on some select weekends. That's a typical L.A day hire / per diem jack-around. They also pull that crap when f-t guys are in negotiations (contract)... they will shoot a bunch of day hires into weekend slots to spin up the talent and keep the agents off-guard. Hope it works out for him. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15259-josh-rubenstein-leaving-kcbskcal/#findComment-157038 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it works out for him. Really shitty, but that's what this business has become...unfortunately. Do you remember Kristine Lazar? She was on XETV for a few years up until 2006-07ish when she took off for KCBS...Anyways, I think they made her FT in the last year or so. After all those years. Granted, that it could have been on her wanting a PT gig, but it just seems ridic as to how someone would be willing to spend all that time at one place for a PT gig.
