Just like when he was a Scripps, lots of experience is walking out the door after Sean McLaughlin signed on as VP of News.

Word is that 12 staffers at Graham’s KPRC (Houston) are taking the buyout and will be gone by July 1st.

FTVLive told you that KPRC News Director Bernice Kearney was one of those taking the buyout offer.

Other station managers are also belived to be leaving.

It’s never good when all that experience leaves at the same time, but Graham is trying to save money and they feel that this is the best way to do it.
