Stepping Down in Denver

Longtime Denver Anchor Jim Benemann announced that he is going to retired from CBS O&O KCNC.

While the announcement came during the important May sweeps, Benemann isn’t going to leave for 7 months.

“We are sad to see Jim leave the CBS4 family but wish him the best in his retirement,” News Director Kristine Strain added. “He’s been the heart and the face of Denver TV for more than two decades and during that time he has volunteered to emcee hundreds of events for nonprofit organizations. We hear from so many viewers who have met him at events ranging from the Denver Center for the Performing Arts gala, to Food Bank of the Rockies fundraisers, the Colorado Business Committee for the Arts annual awards ceremony and countless others. He really touches lives and will be missed!”
