ScottSchell 363 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Meteorologist Colton Williams is heading north. As I previously mentioned he left KTUL at the end of April and was helping KJRH and still is until the end of the month, then he will be heading up I-35 to Wichita and joining the KAKE First Alert weather team and will start in June doing the 4pm newscasts Monday through Friday.

tyrannical bastard 3974 Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago (edited) I'm sure something will come to light about Mark Johnson's firing, but it may be tied to him hawking merchandise on the side. This is scuttlebutt based on Reddit and should be taken with a grain of salt. Makes me wonder what it would take to get James Spann canned. He has enough of a following that would riot in the streets if anything happened to him. But he is very good at explaining all sides of an issue, whether it's weather related or not, and does a good job trying to tow the line and/or staying neutral on controversial issues. Good meteorologists often negotiate the leeway to market themselves outside of their news roles, especially if they have existing speaking or educational arrangements in place. Whatever Mark Johnson may have done was probably out of line with his contract and Scripps exercised their right to terminate for cause.

tyrannical bastard 3974 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) I wonder if WOIO has any desire to hire Mark Johnson once his non-compete is up. WKYC too. Not sure if WJW would take him, even though they are a vastly different place with Scott Sabol as the oldest one there after Andre's retirement. In this post-Goddard (and even post-Bernier era), Mark Johnson was the senior meteorologist for the market, starting at WEWS in 1993. He took over the chief position at WEWS 10 years later after they demoted Brad Sussman, who had taken over for the legendary Don Webster. Enjoy this YouTube video that's aged a little poorly over the last day or two. It came out 9 years ago.
