We head to the great Northwest for the No. 3 station on our list and in the near future this could change.

KIRO the Cox Media Group station in Seattle is on the list right now, but with Cox being bought out by Apollo the future is a bit up in the air.

Apollo has smartly said that they are going to keep the Cox management team to run the group, but you wonder how much spending will be cut back?

Cox is a group that focuses on news and has no place for fluff and filler in the newscast.

Seattle is a great area to live and work, and KIRO is the crown jewel of the market. KIRO also is watched by viewers in Canada along with the States. KIRO is even seen as far East in Canada as Toronto.

It’s a great station, but will it continue to stay great?

Only time will tell.
