Former KOMO weekend anchor John Seigenthaler married former KOMO weekday anchor Kerry Brock in the early 1990's. According to Wikipedia, they are still married.

Speaking of John Marler and Cathy Marshall, I always felt he was a very good anchor and wasn't treated very well at KATU. He replaced the very popular Jeff Gianola -- and wasn't anything like him. Plus they had three anchors at the time -- Steve Dunn, Paul Linnman and John Marler. John Marler was more large market material, whereas Jeff Gianola was folksy/goofy. When Marler left KATU, their management seemed more interested in programming gimmickry than delivering a solid news product.

As for Cathy Marshall, KATU tried to morph her into Julie Emry. The most obvious sign of this was making her cut her hair to resemble Julie Emry. She wasn’t as good as her husband, but I did enjoy her on AM Northwest with Paul Linnman.
