Oregon Media Insiders

Well, there hasn't been an open thread made for this weekend yet so I'll make one.

I just noticed that New Vision is hiring a Webmaster. I don't know if it would be for KOIN or all their stations in general. So, maybe a new/updated site for KOIN coming soon.

KPTV/Internet Broadcasting is also hiring a web news editor.

Talk away...!

[Thanks for doing this. One of my oldest and dearest friends is very ill, and I'm not taking it well.--L]

From the comments in last weekend's open thread (because I didn't start this weekend's soon enough), we get this memo from KPTV ND Patrick McCreery:

I am very pleased to announce that our new 4pm newscast will be anchored by Kim Maus, Shauna Parsons and Wayne Garcia.

This will give us the combined power and energy of Good Day Oregon and the 10 O’clock News.

Julie Grauert will join the Good Day Oregon team co-anchoring from 4:30-7am and reporting from 7-9am.

Sophie Soong will become Kevin Coari’s co-anchor on Saturday and Sunday at 5 and 10pm.

Please wish them all congratulations as we take this next step in our growth.

I wonder if Kim will be staying on Better? Though I hear the New Yorkers have pretty much taken over the show anyway.
