Is this the last rating book for KOAT (Albuquerque) Anchor Shelly Ribando at the Hearst station?

Back in September, FTVLive FIRST told you that Ribando was spotted in a number of stations on the East coast and sources tell FTVLive she could be bolting KOAT shortly after the Feb book.

We hear that management still hasn’t decided on a replacement if indeed she does leave. There were rumors that when KOAT hired Darleen “The Tongue” Melendez, she was looked at as a possible replacement for Ribando?

But, according to insiders, “The Tongue” has left a bad taste in the mouth of managers and newsroom staff alike.

Stay tuned….
