Kicked to the Curb in Jax

In case you didn't long onto FTVLive late yesterday evening, we broke the news that WTLV/WJXX (Jacksonville) GM Eric Land is out at the Gannett station.

Land was named GM of the station two years ago. "I'm very anxious to be part of making history here," said Land upon meeting the staff in August of 2012.

It looks like Land will end up being only a small part of the history of First Coast News with just a short stint at the station. 

Here is the very short internal memo that was sent inside Gannett:

Today Eric resigned as President and General Manager of WTLV/WJXX.   We wish Eric the best and thank him for his two years with our company.
