Buffalo Station Hires Newspaper Reporter for I-Team

More proof that newspapers are all but dead.

WIVB in Buffalo has made an interesting hire. The station has hired Rose Ciotta, who worked at The Philadelphia Inquirer to join the station’s investigative unit.

Prior to joining the Inquirer, Ciotta was an investigative reporter and editor at The Buffalo News.

“Ms. Ciotta has a national reputation as an aggressive investigator. She’s known for never giving up, never giving in and never stopping until she gets results. Joining News 4 demonstrates her commitment to Buffalo and the people of Western New York. It also demonstrates News 4’s commitment to groundbreaking, in-depth investigative journalism that informs and protects our viewers,” WIVB GM Rene LaSpina.
