She has just been named the KPRC 2 news director. This in addition to her duties as vice president of news for Post-Newsweek Stations (KPRC's owner).
Here is more about Collura's past from her bio:
She was the news director at WDIV-TV and solidified the NBC affiliate's reputation as an award-winning and top-rated Detroit news station.
Collura started at WDIV-TV in July 1997.
Prior to arriving at WDIV, she was vice president of news at the NBC affiliate, WTVJ-TV in Miami. At KTSP-TV in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Collura served as news director from 1991 to 1993. In Sacramento at KCRA-TV from 1987 to 1991, she became assistant news director after serving as an executive producer.
At KSDK-TV in St. Louis, she was a news producer from 1984 to 1986 and at WREX-TV in Rockford, Ill., she was a news producer and later became executive producer.
As I have mentioned before, Collura was already working from KPRC in the past few months.
Congratulations to Collura.

What a waste of skin? Another freaking outsider. She has work in small markets...no major market experience. I feel sorry for those fools at KPRC...
ReplyDeleteSmall markets? Detroit? Miami? Minneapolis? Sacramento?
ReplyDeleteAll Top 20 markets.
If you're going to make an argument - back it up with facts... or at least knowledge of the TV biz.
KPRC is awful. Jen Bauer? Really? They need to fire half of the reporters/anchors and start over.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with the first comment.
