Philly Station Launches Campaign in the Face Of CBS Bosses

Ukee Washington

While CBS O&O President Peter Dunn and VP of News David Friend are on administrative leave as the company looks into their conduct and dealings with employees at the CBS O&O’s, one CBS station is firing back at the pair.

KYW’s (Philly) former GM Brien Kennedy and former News Director Margaret Cronan made claims that both Dunn and Friend made disparaging comments about longtime Philly Anchor Ukee Washington after Kennedy promoted him to the main Anchor at KYW.

Now, KYW has launched a new promotional campaign that appears to slap both Dunn and Friend right in the face:

Washington has received a groundswell of support since the story came out in which he was disparaged by upper management.

Dunn and Friend remain on leave as the company investigates their actions.
