Teresa Stedman is out at KOIN. The (Saturday) memo from GM Chris Sehring:

The Director of Human Resources & News Operations position has been eliminated. This position’s former duties will be re-assigned to KOIN’s News and Business departments effective Monday, May 19th.

As a result of this change, Teresa Stedman has left KOIN to pursue new interests. All of us at KOIN appreciate her many efforts on behalf of our station; we thank Teresa for her hard work and wish her great success in her future endeavors.

KOIN is also combining the Promotion and Production departments into a Creative Services unit with Rodger O'Connor in charge. Rick Brown moves to Production Manager in that department.

I hear through the grapevine that Colby Reade is leaving KXL. Don't know where to.

What a myopic view KGW.com has of its users.

Every other website tonight offers election results galore. But not kgw.com.

Look at more than just a few election results tonight and you find yourself locked out. You must register the site says, or you get no more access to the only news anyone wants tonight: the numbers.

What an insulting way to treat web users and a narrow minded 1999 view of how to run a website.

KATU.com imposes no restrictions. Get your results there!
