Jumping Ship in the Twin Cities

An insider at Tegna’s KARE in Minneapolis sent along this email:

Another mass exodus at Tegna’s Kare 11 in Minneapolis.

Their managing editor left for Memphis sister station. Now, their AD is leaving for quad cities. They’re also losing their head dayside EP and head of DEI, and two reporters. They recently lost digital executive producer, and let go of a weekend assignment manager and weekend producer.

This after they loss more than half a dozen black employees in 4 months. Best station in country on paper, not in reality.
