It appears that TEGNA maybe looking to get rid of a longtime, high salary Denver Anchor. 

Sources tell FTVLive that Tegna owned KUSA in Denver is pushing longtime Anchor and FTVLive favorite Adele Arakawa out the door. 

Word is very hush-hush, but it appears that the Denver station is "offering" Arakawa a buyout and she is very much being urged to take it. 

Arakawa has been at KUSA since 1993, she has anchored the weekday evening newscasts at KUSA for nearly 18 years.

She came to Denver from WBBM in Chicago. 

Now, in another move to try and save money, it appears that KUSA is pushing the longtime staffer towards the exit.

Stay tuned....
