Katy Tur on WNBC

I just saw a report by Katy Tur on WNBC, formerly of WPIX. I never really saw her as market #1 material nor WNBC material. Don't get me wrong, she has potential, but I never thought she would have landed a job on one of the big 3 so soon. I wonder if her relationship with Keith Olbermann may have helped her land the job at WNBC. Your thoughts?

She definitely got that job because of her associations with Keith Olbermann. I don't see her as market #1 material as well, but I don't think she's too bad.

She seems to be a "utility" reporter for all of the NBC networks. She spent a month in the field in the late spring reporting for The Weather Channel's coverage of the Vortex2 tornado hunt project, and last week she did a number of TWC reports live from NYC. I'm curious if she'll be used as a NYC reporter for MSNBC now as well.

Of course not. Why even suggest that? Forget the fact that Olbermann is the face of MSNBC--she got the job fair and square. :awesome:

Ah, the effects of romantic cronyism.
