They will be losing four of their major reporters/anchors. This is not by coincidence. Lin Television has made some major cutbacks in recent months to sure up their books. Management at KXAN has failed to retain some of their top talent due to unknown reasons. As a viewer to their newscasts, I would like to know what is going on in their newsroom?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1143088625756367367.post-41044535139090685652010-03-02T23:52:04.912-06:002010-03-02T23:52:04.912-06:00You are right, Daniel.

Ike moved in on a Saturday morning. Matt anchored from the studio that morning and then went to Beaumont to cover the relief efforts there.<br />I just want to make sure the record is straight and clear.<br />ThanksDaniel Gravoisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1143088625756367367.post-39366761575343214112010-03-02T20:05:48.632-06:002010-03-02T20:05:48.632-06:00Congrats!
