Denver TV news is becoming quite the topic on my blog lately!
I have noticed over the last months that Denver and Texas are swapping television journalists left and right and more and more Colorado-area folks are reading my blog.
Sure, we've seen Houston and Denver TV stations swap personnel over the years.
We've watched Sally Mamdooh and Christine Noël join KPRC from the "Mile-High City." KHOU 11's general manager Robert Springer came here from Denver. On the flip side, we saw KHOU 11 reporter Jacqueline Crea take off for Colorado.
At the same time we have to remember that Houston TV constantly hires and loses talent from/to all over the country at this point.
But less than a month ago, practically on the same day, we saw:
- Britt Moreno leave CBS 4 Denver KCNC and join KXAN Austin
- Katie Orth, of ABC Big 2 News KMID/KPEJ Midland, join KWGN 2 Denver
That was quickly followed a couple of days later by KVUE Austin reporter Luis de Leon joining 9News KUSA.
And finally this week, just because he still has a lot of fans writing in from his time at KHOU 11, I wrote about meteorologist Brooks Garner leaving FOX 31 KDVR - KWGN Denver for FOX 35 WOFL Orlando.
