BONNEVILLE News-Talk KIRO-F/SEATTLE "SEATTLE'S MORNING NEWS" co-anchor LINDA THOMAS has been named Sr. Features Reporter and Digital Journalist and will devote 100% of her time to original enterprise reporting for radio and MYNORTHWEST.COM, where she will continue her "THE NEWS CHICK" blog.
“Original local reporting is what fuels KIRO RADIO’s conversations and drives our users to visit MYNORTHWEST.COM,” said News Dir. PETE GAMMELL. “LINDA has a proven ear for the compelling story, and she’s one of our most prolific reporters. This role frees her to focus on what only she can do.”
“I’ve always been impressed with the compassion in LINDA’s reporting,” said PD LARRY GIFFORD. “She finds real, interesting people in the community, has a personal conversation with them and shares what she’s learned. I can’t wait to hear who she introduces me to next.”
“I believe everybody has a story, and I want to know what’s yours,” said THOMAS. “I meet so many people whose stories have value, and someone hearing or reading them is going to have their life changed by their bravery and originality.”
