Team KTNV,

I am pleased to announce that Mike Dello Stritto, Managing Editor at KPIX, the CBS O&O in San Francisco will be the next News Director at KTNV.

As some of you know, Mike was a reporter at KTNV from 2004-2006. He was a great street reporter, who fulfilled our brand of asking tough quesTons and holding those in authority accountable. He transiToned into a leadership role in the past 9 years having served as a reporter, managing editor, interim news director and assistant news director at KOVR in Sacramento. For the past one-and-a-half years he has supervised breaking and daily news coverage as well as special event planning for KPIX. He is ecstaTc about returning to Las Vegas

and conTnuing to build upon the posiTve raTngs momentum of the past year.

Mike knows and loves Las Vegas. His knowledge and passion for aggressive local TV and digital coverage will help KTNV grow in the years ahead. His first day will be August 31st.

Jim
