Tuesday, April 29, 2025 UPDATE:

Greetings:

After 25 years as a news director in multiple markets, including several in the top ten, a veteran news director is retiring.

Diener

SCOTT DIENER, currently the news director for Gray Media’s KMOV-TV (CBS) in St. Louis, shared his decision with his staff within the hour. Here’s the note he sent. Take a moment to read it to learn some of his motivations. Scott’s been the ND here for the past nine years, and previously ran newsrooms in his native Los Angeles (KCBS/KCAL-TV), Dallas (KTVT/KTXA-TV), and San Francisco (KNTV), among others. They are all listed on his Linkedin page.

Congrats to Scott.

We’ll have more on this development and all the week’s news in our full newsletter this weekend.

regards,

 

Rick Gevers

Greetings:

We’re a little early this week due to travel. Don’t get used to it! 🙂

In this bulldog edition (points for you if you get the reference) there are TWO new ND openings, ONE created by a promotion to GM. And there are NO new news directors to the best of my knowledge.

Those changes mean our list of stations with ND openings jumps to 37.

ONE of those openings (one of the TWO new ones) is featured in a paid help wanted ad.

TWO obituaries in this week’s edition, both of longtime corporate executives at smaller companies.

There are several GM moves to share. Those are below.

You may already know that the EP of 60 Minutes is leaving. You may not yet know that a top leader at Voice of America is also out. We’ll tell you about some new board members for the CAROLE KNEELAND Project, and share a column from a veteran ND about the importance of journalism.

Have a good week and we’ll see you Sunday if not before.

New News Director Openings:

He moved to the COO job in 2014. Here’s an obituary from Morris’ WWAY-TV in Wilmington, NC. Morris Network is the broadcasting division of Morris Multimedia.

Names in the News (and other stuff):

You likely saw in many other places that longtime 60 Minutes executive producer BILL OWENS has left CBS, citing corporate interference with his oversight of the program. This New York Times article explains.

Thomas

SANDRA THOMAS has left Voice of America, where she was head of the Latin America division. Media Moves has details. She’s a former news director at a number of local stations in Los Angeles and Dallas, and network positions as well.

Three new members were appointed to the Board of Directors of the Kneeland Project, including former Post Newsweek CEO EMILY BARR and one of Sinclair’s Group News Directors, BLAISE LABBE. More details here.

Longtime news director TOM DOERR, most recently at WINK-TV in Ft, Myers, FL, penned this column for the local newspaper about the importance of journalism in your community. Tom’s also the President of the Press Club of Southwest Florida.

General Manager News and Notes:

Sinclair named VINCENT SOLLECTTO as GM of its West Palm Beach station, WPEC-TV (CBS).

Also at Sinclair, DAVE SCHWARTZ is retiring as Senior VP/Station Operations. He’s held that role since 2007 and first joined the company as GM of its Flint, MI, FOX affiliate, WSMH-TV.

DANIEL TALLEY adds GM duties to his sales management position at Standard Media’s KLKN-TV in Lincoln, NE.

April 20, 2025

Greetings:

For a holiday week, lots of action. It’s the second week in a row for FIVE new news directors. However, there are FOUR new openings.

Last week we told you that an ND opening in San Antonio had been filled, but this week there’s a new opening there. Also, this week ONE Memphis ND opening was filled but another Memphis ND job opened up.

Those changes mean our list of stations with ND openings drops to 35.

Several GM moves, including a current ND becoming a GM and a former ND turned GM takes a corporate job, Both were with Gray Media.

Both IRE and Peabody announced awards this week, though the Peabody announced nominations with the winners coming in about ten days. IRE named winners and we have links to both.

News from RTDNA: the winner of the Paul White awards is raising a few eyebrows from readers while the organization’s president and CEO is retiring.

And…for the first time in the almost 30 years of publishing this newsletter, we are using the word ‘boob’. But it’s in an important article everyone should read.

All that…and more…below.

Newly Named News Directors:

WABC-TV, New York, NY…JOHN ANTONIO returns tot his ABC o-and-o as Vice President of News. John was managing editor here for eight years until 2012 when he left for CNN, where he most recently served as Senior VP of Programming. More details in this news release. At WABC, John replaces SCOTT MATTHEWS, who left in March to become Senior VP of News Gathering for MSNBC.

WATN/WLMT-TV, Memphis, TN…CHRISTINA AILSWORTH has been promoted to news director for this Tegna operated ABC/CW/MyNetwork TV operation. She’s been the Content Manager here since 2022. Before that she was a producer at cross-town rival WMC-TV. Read all about it in this news release. She replaces MIKE DARRAH who left in March after just four months as news director.

KSEE/KGPE-TV, Fresno, CA…ANDY PARAS moves west as the next news director for this Nexstar owned NBC/CBS duopoly. Andy had been the news director for Allen Media’s WFFT-TV (FOX) in Ft. Wayne, IN, before losing that job when Allen consolidated his ND job with two other stations. Here he replaces STEVEN SHAW who moved within Nexstar to become ND for WOWK-TV in Charleston/Huntington, WV.

KOAA-TV, Colorado Springs, CO…congratulations to DANIEL SANCHEZ who’s been promoted to news director at this Scripps owned NBC affiliate. Daniel’s been the Assistant News Director here for the past year in his second tour of duty at KOAA. He spent 18 months here before 1 1/2 years as an EP for Scripps’ KGTV in San Diego. He replaces RYAN HAZELWOOD who’s had to step away to fight colon cancer.

KHSL-TV, Chico, CA…thanks to a tip from a reader we can report that HAYLEY WATTS is now the news director for this Allen Media owned CBS station. She’s also the evening anchor there and added the news director job to her responsibilities about a year ago. Here’s her station bio. She replaces AARON VOGEL who left in March 2024 to become ND for WHEC-TV in Rochester, NY. Apologies for the late update.

New News Director Openings:

WBZ-TV, Boston, MA…GERARDO LOPEZ has left this CBS o-and-o after just over 2 1/2 years as news director. He’s a former news director in Norfolk and Tulsa and has worked in many other markets as his linkedin page will demonstrate.

KSAT-TV, San Antonio, TX…after almost 30 years at this now owned by Graham Media Group (formerly Post-Newsweek) ABC affiliate, MARIO ORELLANA is leaving the newsroom for a corporate recruiting role with Graham. Mario joined the station as a sports intern in 1995 and worked his way up the ladder to Assistant News Director, the job he held before his promotion to news director in early 2023. More details here.

WMC-TV, Memphis, TN…good news to report here as the news director vacancy was created when MARK LITTLE was promoted to General Manager of sister Gray station KWQC-TV in the Quad Cities. He’s been the ND here for three years and earlier was an ND for stations in Jackson, MS, Columbia, SC, and Cape Girardeau, MO. He also spent eight years as an assignment editor for KPLR-TV in St. Louis.

WSLS-TV, Roanoke, VA…SCOTT FLANNIGAN is leaving this Graham Media Group owned NBC station after two years as news director. He sent me this note explaining his next destination. Scott’s been a news director in a number of markets, ranging in size from Kansas City to Lake Charles, LA. More details on all his stops on his Linkedin page.

Names in the News (and other stuff):

It’s award season.

IRE announced its winners this week. This website names the winners AND includes the stories for which they were honored. Pull yourself away from YouTube and be inspired by the great work. Winners will be honored at this year’s convention in New Orleans, where I hope to see many of you.

And the Peabody Awards announced its nominees for the news and documentary awards. Winners will be announced May 1.

RTDNA named DEAN BAQUET as this year’s winner of the PAUL WHITE Award honoring someone for a lifetime achievement in journalism. He’s the former executive editor of The New York Times and currently leads an investigative fellowship programs for the Times. I heard from several of you questioning this honor, to my knowledge the first time it’s been given to a non broadcaster. However, the name of the organization is the Radio-Television DIGITAL News Association.

Speaking of RTNDA, DAN SHELLEY has announced his retirement at the end of the year from RTDNA. He’s joined the organization in 2017 as executive director and later became President and CEO. He’ll be replaced by RTDNA Executive Director TARA PUCKEY.

Finally we rarely report news from non managers, but a friend alerted me to this lengthy but very cautionary tale from network correspondent JUDY MULLER and her husband, former NBC correspondent GEORGE LEWIS. At the risk of being accused of clickbait, I will tell you the word ‘boob’ is featured.

General Manager News and Notes:

One time news director turned general manager DANA NEVES slides up the Gray corporate ladder to become Senior Managing VP. For the last seven years, she’s been the GM for Gray’s WFSB-TV (CBS): she’d earlier the ND there for 12 years. The company is looking for her replacement at WFSB. Dana fills the void left by the departure of MATT JACQUINT.

If you were paying attention above, you learned that MARK LITTLE has been promoted to GM for Gray’s KWQC-TV in the Quad Cities. He’s been the ND for the company’s WMC-TV in Memphis.

Finally, STEVE EATON is the new GM for Nexstar’s stations in Elmira, NY, and Burlington, VT, KSVI-TV and KHMT-TV.

April 13, 2025

Thursday, April 17, 2025 UPDATE:

Greetings:

MORE changes at Graham Media Group, and a news director turned general managers moves up one step at Gray Media.

Neves

First, the good news. DANA NEVES has been named Senior Managing VP for Gray Media. For the last seven years, Dana’s been the GM for Gray’s (formerly Meredith’s) WFSB-TV (CBS) in Hartford and had been the news director there for 12 years. Here’s the news release on her new duties, in which she essentially fills the void left by the recent departure of MATT JACQUINT. We told you two weeks ago that Matt had left the company.

Also today, TWO news director changes today at Graham Media.

Orellana

MARIO ORELLANA is out as news director for Graham’s KSAT-TV (ABC) in San Antonio. According to an email response from GMG’s VP/News SEAN McLAUGHLIN, Mario is moving to a corporate recruiting role ‘for a while’. Mario’s been the news director here since early 2023 and first joined the station in 1996 as an intern and worked his way up to assistant ND in 2019.

Flannigan

And SCOTT FLANNIGAN has left GMG’s Roanoke, VA, station, WSLS-TV (NBC), after just over two years as news director. His Linkedin page details his other ND stops. I’ve reached out to him to learn his future plans and will report those when he responds.  Scott responded late this afternoon: He resigned last week and has a great new opportunity in Texas which we’ll share when he shares it with us.

It’s been a busy week, so we’ll have a full newsletter this Sunday.

regards,

 

Rick Gevers

Tuesday, April 15, 2025 UPDATE:

Greetings:

ONE UPDATE, many items in headline form…all more detailed this weekend!

Antonio

JOHN ANTONIO returns to WABC-TV in New York as VP/News. John worked there for eight years before leaving in 2012 for CNN. More in this news release. John’s also worked in Boston. At WABC, he replaces SCOTT MATTHEWS. Scott was ND here for 2 1/2 years and left in March to become Senior VP of News Gathering for the soon-to-be-split-off-from-NBC-News MSNBC.

GERALDO LOPEZ has left CBS’s WBZ-TV in Boston after 2 1/2 years there. He’s a former ND in Norfolk and has lots of other stops.

Little

Congratulation to MARK LITTLE, who’s being promoted to GM for Gray’s KWQC-TV in the Quad Cities. He’s been the ND for WMC-TV in Memphis.

Ailsworth

While that opens up a Memphis ND job, another was filled by the promotion of CHRISTINA AILSWORTH to news director at WATN/WLMT-TV. She’s been the Content Brand Manager since 2022 when she joined this Tegna owned ABC station from WMC-TV in Memphis where she was a producer.

Shelley

Finally, DAN SHELLEY has announced his retirement at the end of the year from RTDNA. He’s joined the organization in 2017 as executive director and later became President and CEO. He’ll be replaced by RTDNA Executive Director TARA PUCKEY.

We’ll have more on all these stories (and I assume many others!) in our full report this weekend.

regards,

Rick Gevers

Greetings:

FIVE new news directors in this week’s edition, with just ONE new opening.

One of those news directors will also be a station manger, one of two such arrangements announced this week.

Those changes drop our list of stations with ND openings to 36.

Sorry to share an obituary of an old friend, former news director KEN KURTZ who died this week at the age of 95. He remained an active journalist long after he left his last ND posting. Details in the obituary below.

No GM changes this week, but several items in Names in the News:

BOB PAPPER is stepping down as the longtime director of the RTDNA salary survey, and we’ll share his thoughts on the challenges facing media during the current political climate.

Other stories: Another big group owner is telling stations they have to run what many consider an advocacy piece. A newswoman returns home to be Assistant ND at a station in her hometown, and we have more (entertaining) details about a court case we first shared with you last week.

All that…and more…below.

Newly Named News Directors:

Wood

KSTU-TV, Salt Lake City, UT…LEONA WOOD joins this Scripps/FOX affiliate as both Station Manager/Senior Director of News. Leona left KSL-TV (NBC) in Salt Lake last November after eight years. STACEY ROBERTS, who had been the ND, moves to a new role as Broadcast Director.

Leona’s one of two news managers promoted at Scripps stations. At WXYZ-TV in Detroit, TIM KOCHENDERER was also promoted to station manager. He’ll continue as Senior Director of News, a job he’s held since last August. Tim’s worked at WXYZ since 2002. This news release covers both moves.

Horn

WOAI/KABB-TV, San Antonio, TX…we told you last week that GLEN HORN was leaving WDHN-TV in Dothan, AL, for a new job, and now we can tell you it’s at this Sinclair owned NBC/FOX duopoly. Glen was ND in Dothan for four years and has been an ND in Buffalo and Wichita. His other stops are detailed here. Glen replaces MICHELE GERMANO who left last August after not quite three years as news director.

WFXR-TV, Roanoke, VA…THOM BREWER gets his first news director job at this Nexstar owned FOX affiliate where he’s been the Assistant ND since 2020. He’s worked at three other Roanoke establishments, starting at WDBJ-TV as a photographer and moving his way up to Senior Producer during a 24 year career there. He also worked at CBN and WSLS-TV.

WPTA-TV, Ft. Wayne, IN…IAN HOOVER is also being promoted from Assistant ND to News Director, in his case at this Gray Media owned ABC (and, on a digital sub channel) NBC affiliate. Here’s the memo from the GM. He replaces TOM POWELL who’s taken a reporter job at sister Gray stations KPHO/KTVK-TV in Phoenix after three years as ND here. Tom had anchored at WPTA before his promotion.

McConico

KQDS-TV, Duluth, MN…veteran news director MATT McCONICO will be the next news director for this FOX affiliate. Matt last made these pages in February when we shared his recovery from a battle with lymphoma. It’s a return to a Duluth ND chair for Matt, who earlier spent two years as ND for KBJR-TV. His linkedin page has more. I believe he replaces STEVE GOODSPEED as news director here: Steve left last summer.

New News Director Opening:

Brackens

KSWO-TV, Lawton, OK…SHARIKA BRACKENS is leaving this Gray Media owned ABC affiliate after 16 years, the last five as news director. She’s off to Nexstar’s WREG-TV (CBS) in Memphis where she will be the Assistant News Director. Sharika started at KSWO as an intern, worked her way up the ranks to assistant ND before her promotion to the top job in May 2020.

Obituary:

Kurtz

KEN KURTZ died Monday at the age of 95. Ken was an ND in Lexington and Ft. Wayne and worked in several other markets. He spent many years as ND for WKYT-TV (CBS) in Lexington, which remembered him here. The picture comes from one of our ‘geezer’ lunches in Indianapolis in 2019 and, up until a few months ago, I would regularly hear from him with a comment or question about an item in the newsletter.

Names in the News (and other stuff):

Papper

BOB PAPPER is stepping down after 30 years of conducting the RTDNA salary survey. He was honored at a reception last week at the annual Broadcast Educator’s Association convention in Las Vegas. At the end of the reception, Bob took a few minutes to discuss what he sees as the challenges facing news media in the current political climate. He kindly gave us permission to share them with you…and this quick read is worth a few minutes of your time. Bob taught at several universities after a long career in newsrooms.

ELAINE EMERSON returns home to Boise as the Assistant News Director for Tegna’s KTVB-TV. She’s been the Director of Content at Gray’s KVVU-TV (FOX) in Las Vegas, where news director TOM BELL sent this note to the staff.

Nexstar has apparently issued a ‘must-run’ story for its stations. And it’s not what many would consider a news story but an advocacy piece. Details in this report from The Desk.

Finally, many of you apparently enjoyed last week’s story about KMOV-TV (St. Louis) news director SCOTT DIENER, cleared in a suit filed by a former employee. who claimed intentional infliction of emotional distress because he changed her schedule. That story was from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and was fairly brief and to the point. THIS story…is from St. Louis Magazine, is more elaborate and discusses a newsroom staple. Donuts!

General Manager News and Notes:

No GM or upper management moves this week, to the best of my knowledge.

April 6, 2025

Greetings:

Greetings from Las Vegas and the annual NAB/BEA conventions. Hope our paths cross if you are here.

There’s a bunch of new NDs this week…not sure how to count them since one hire is going to oversee THREE newsrooms in TWO different states. One of those new hires is a former Chicago ND who’s been at his new job since December.

And there are TWO new openings, including one in market number one.

My always unofficial number shows there are 37 stations with ND openings.

If you are at NAB, please visit our advertisers, Trint, Octopus, AccuWeather and WMV. Speaking of advertisers, Sciline is back with a free crash course to improve your science coverage. That’s all below.

Ever change an employee’s schedule? Of course you have. So you’ll be happy to know that a St. Louis jury found for a news director who was sued for intentional infliction of emotional distress. That’s in Names in the News, along with several other news management changes.

And speaking of changes, several in our GM section as well.

Newly Named News Directors:

Jones

WKMG-TV, Orlando. FL…AUTUMN JONES moves across Florida to be the next ND for this Graham Media owned CBS affiliate. She’s been the ND for WFTX-TV (Scripps/Fox) in Ft. Myers but earlier worked at WFTV in Orlando. It’s a reunion with Graham’s VP/News SEAN McLAUGHLIN: they worked together when Sean was VP/News at Scripps. Autumn replaces ALLISON McGINLEY who left after ten years for a job at her alma mater, the University of Central Florida.

Miller

KWTV, Oklahoma City, OK…ANDY MILLER returns to a newsroom as VP of Digital Content for this Griffin owned CBS affiliate. And he’ll succeed CHUCK MAULDEN when Chuck retires as VP of Content later this year. Andy will also oversee Griffin’s KOTV in Tulsa. He spent six years as a regional ND for Nexstar and many years as ND for WCIA-TV (in two stints) in Champaign, IL. He sent this note about how the job came about…and it points out what we all know: it’s a small business.

Piacente

KGMB/KHNL/KFVE-TV, Honolulu, HI…we’re late in reporting that MATT PIACENTE has been the ND since December for these three Gray Media owned stations, branded as Hawaii News Now. Matt’s last ND job was at WFLD-TV, the FOX o-and-o in Chicago which he left a year ago after eight years as ND. Matt’s Linkedin page has his entire career history. Matt replaces SCOTT DUFF who lost his battle with cancer last July. Scott was ND here for two years and at WSFA-TV in Montgomery for 16.

Burger

KWWL/KIMT/WREX-TV, Waterloo, Mason City, IA, and Rockford, IL…I guess you could call it a hat trick of sorts. LISA BURGER will be the news director for all of these Allen Media owned stations. At KWWL, she replaces ANDREW ALTENBERN. At KIMT I believe the incumbent was DAN CLOUSE, while I think the ND job at WREX-TV has been vacant since GEOFFREY DEFFENBAUGH left last year for job in Bend, OR. Lisa most recently was ND for KTXL-TV in Sacramento.

Ludgood

WRBL-TV, Columbus, GA…a veteran newsman takes the helm at this Nexstar owned CBS affiliate. ERIC LUDGOOD is a former ND at WGCL-TV (now WANF-TV) (CBS) in Atlanta, where he worked for two other stations and at CNN. Most recently he was VP for Scripps News. At WRBL, Eric replaces CONNOR HACKLING who transferred to ND for WSAV-TV in Savannah after three years as ND here and more than ten years at the station.

New News Director Openings:

Tindiglia

WPIX-TV, New York, NY…this Nexstar owned CW affiliate is looking for a new news director. NICOLE TINDIGLIA, who’s held that job since 2021, is moving to a new role within the station. She spent many years at WCBS-TV in New York before taking the ND job here, including eight years as the Assistant ND. Some of our more, uh, veteran readers will fondly remember her late father RON TINDIGLIA, who was an ND at WABC-TV and VP/News for the CBS o-and-o group.

Horn

WDHN-TV, Dothan, AL…another Nexstar station, another opening. GLEN HORN has been the ND here since 2021. His LinkedIn page has his extensive and varied background. I believe…but have not yet confirmed…that he’s off to a new ND job in another market. Stay tuned!

Names in the News (and other stuff):

Diener

A jury in St. Louis didn’t take very long to find in favor of KMOV-TV (Gray/CBS) News Director SCOTT DIENER in a lawsuit filed by a former employee. Meteorologist MEGHAN HODGE (air name: MEGHAN DANAHEY) sued Diener claiming intentional infliction of emotional distress because he changed her schedule. Another suit against the station is still pending.

Ford

CRAIG FORD, who’s been an anchor (who added Assistant ND duties to his portfolio) is retiring after more than 25 years at WTVA-TV in Tupelo, MS. That’s a joint NBC/ABC affiliate owned by Allen Media. The station aired this tribute and the local newspaper reported on his departure, including some health battles. Earlier he was an ND in Hattiesburg, MS.

There’s a new Nightside EP at Weigel’s WDJT-TV (CBS) in Milwaukee. JOE SINICKI has been the morning EP for WITI-TV, the Fox affiliate in Milwaukee.

BRIAN FARBER, who was the last of the original team hired when WXMI-TV (FOX) in Grand Rapids, MI, launched news in January 1999, is leaving the station. TIM DYE, who was the first news department employee as ND and hired Brian, told Brian’s story on LinkedIn.

General Manager News and Notes:

Lane

Monday’s UPDATE told you that PHIL LANE, general manager of Graham Media’s KPRC-TV in Houston, announced his retirement this week by sending a video to the staff. (I tried, believe me, but haven’t been able to get a copy.) He’s been GM for this NBC affiliate since 2022, when he transferred from Graham’s (aka Post-Newsweek) KSAT-TV in San Antonio. He’s been a GM in South Carolina and two stations in Georgia.

JEFF MILLER moves within Nexstar to become GM for KRQE-TV (CBS) in Albuquerque. He’s been running the company’s Brownsville, TX, operations as you’ll learn in this Linkedin post from Nexstar’s SVP MATTHEW ROSENFELD. He’s also been a GM in Omaha and Sioux City, IA.

MATT JAQUINT has left Gray Media where he’s been Chief Revenue Officer since 2023. Before that he was a regional VP overseeing stations and is a former GM in Salt Lake City.
