Anchor/Reporter Opening (Updated)
Cox’s KIRO in Seattle has posted an Anchor/Reporter opening and some are wondering who’s job it is?
In the listing, it says, “Anchor a minimum of 2 days per week with the expectation to Anchor as needed to cover for absences of fellow Anchors, reading copy, ad-libbing between elements, introducing live and taped reports and features, and interviewing on-air guests.”
Obviously, this appears to be an opening for a Weekend Anchor job.
Also, it appears that current Weekend Anchor Linzi Sheldon has been M-I-A for weeks.
Sheldon has been at the station for 7 years and while her bio is still listed on the station’s website, viewers say that she has not been on the weekend newscasts for some time.
She hasn’t posted to her Facebook page since July and hasn’t tweeted since August 1st.
Stay tuned….
Update: Sources tell FTVLive that Linzi Sheldon has been off the air, but this is not her job that is being posted. Sheldon has been missing from the desk while dealing with the death of her father. No more word on what position this is.
