Scripps is telling people that they will soon be filling the News Director job at their Bakersfield station KERO.

Scripps is saying they have hired a top gun for the job in the 126th market. Scripps suits are telling people that the hire is a HUGE name former News Director that would be willing to work in the tiny market, because they have family in the area. 

The new ND would replace Leeza Starks, who as FTVLive FIRST told you went to KGUN in Tucson. 

The tease is intriguing, but it appears we will have to wait and see who the HUGE name ND is.

Stay tuned....
