Life After TV News
/
He's no longer working in TV, but he is still giving people the scoop.
Phillip Yin was a business and political anchor for CNBC, Bloomberg TV and CCTV America, working in Seattle, Hong Kong and Washington, D.C.
But now he has left TV news and is scoop up ice cream, gelato and serving wine in his new shop called, "The Newsroom in Mill Creek".
He opened the Newsroom last summer in The Village by the Creek shopping center on 164th Street SE near Bothell-Everett Highway.
“I wanted to celebrate journalism and to have food,” he said. “This is the kind of place I’d want to work out of.”
On the wall are dozens of front pages from around the nation.
“All these events around the world have significant impact on who we are. Journalism transcends cultures and nationalities,” Yin said. “The front pages share the emotion of news events from around the world and how it impacts your local community.”
He offers a 10 percent discount for people in the news biz. “Anybody who works in or for journalism,” he said. “Could be a delivery person, writers, PR people, marketing.”
