According to sources inside the newsroom his last day was Friday. The bio for Rick Chambers has been removed from the KCBS-KCAL-TV websites. Most recently Chambers had been handling many prominent roles as an anchor for KCAL-TV’s evening newscasts, and reporting and fill-in anchoring for its sister-station KCBS-TV.

A3N 996 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 reunion? Ann, Harold and Rick? He means the reunion of Don Corsini, Nancy Bauer Gonzales, Jason Ball and several other ex-KCBS employees (or soon to be ex). That is assuming that Corsini lands the GM gig at KTLA and if he hires Nancy B.G. as the ND. If Corsini does move over to KTLA and takes NBG with him, then I would expect David Gonzales to move over (since his wife is NBG) and Mia Lee (since she is a favorite of Corsini).

Besides, with Tribune in bankruptcy, do you really think KTLA will be paying anything more than union minimum? I'd expect they'll be the first station to adopt 1-person crews in this market (like WUSA). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosAngeles7 0 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I thought Rick Chambers was a solid anchor. He wasn't a Marc Brown, but he wasn't a real positive/negative or just negative like come of his colleagues at KCBS/KCAL were. When I watched KCAl in the evenings for news, I was very pleased to see him behind the desk. Too bad he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewsMan 0 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I never thought he was the best anchor ever but he was decent and a good fill-in, 2 is really starting to move backward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
