I like Ingrid.
Julies out of sick days. Don’t forget she was off the air for a couple of months just recently with a sore throat. Time to consider a weather blog where she doesn’t talk.
Rus was the closest thing to an anchor Asheville has ever had. Rock on darcel.
Bowen is a fine journalist and has lent ear to thousands of important stories over the years. His honed craft and storytelling style has earned him 9 Emmy Awards and 4 NC AP Awards. He is fair and good at his job, as government officials on both sides of the aisle have declared. And as if that weren’t enough, @ashevillemomma, Seattle is a top-tier television news market and very difficult to enter into. I mean, even Ashevegas loves the guy!
Some here wish we could say ‘good riddance’ to the type of ill-informed ‘pathetic’ ‘intoning’ from such negative-nancies as @ashevillemomma. It takes more than merely posting on local news blogs to be active and productive in a community. Something Russ Bowen has no problem of accomplishing.
Bowen embarrassed himself irreparably during the broo-ha-ha over the Aiport Board’s trip to the national conference in Hawaii. Each night he would put on his serious face and intone the latest as if he were breaking a Watergate-scale scandal, and he called in to Matt Mittan’s radio show to darkly suggest that “law enforcement may become involved”. Pathetic.
Good riddance. Hope they teach you something about real journalism in Seattle. It takes more than having the right amount of product in your hair and wearing hip glasses.
When is Julie wunders last day? Her voice is unbearable to listen to…
Hate to see him go, but good luck to him!
