First, an apology for the blogging lull caused by deadline reporting and writing this week. (I will also be out of town tomorrow, and will return to blogging on Thursday.) But at least, let's pass on some new business in the TV and radio world. We've got a new high-profile NECN anchor with an interesting resume:
Beth Shelburne, a distinguished journalist who most recently
anchored the noon and 4 p.m. newscasts for the CBS affiliate in San Diego, will
join RD Sahl as co-anchor of the News at 9 beginning tomorrow, May
17.
Shelburne, a
native of Birmingham, Alabama and an Auburn University graduate, will also
co-anchor NECN’s 5 p.m. newscast, which will be known as “Live at 5 with Chet
Curtis and Beth Shelburne.’’ In addition, she will host “New England Dream
House.’’
Shelburne won
a prestigious Edward R. Murrow Award for writing in 2001 for a 6-part, post-9/11
series called “New York Stories.’’ She
also won a regional Emmy for coverage of the fires that raged through Southern
California in 2003. She worked in Alabama, Mississippi and Florida, and is a
classically trained pianist with a background in
dance.
And we've got an exec going from TV to Boston's Entercom radio empire:
Entercom
Boston today announced the addition of Lee Kinberg as the company’s new Director
of Operations. Kinberg will manage all internal operations at Entercom Boston’s
family of stations, which includes top-rated WEEI Sports Radio, WRKO 680 AM,
WAAF-FM and WMKK-FM.
Kinberg has over a
decade of experience in the media industry. Prior to joining Entercom, Kinberg
was the Director of Programming and Research for WBZ-TV/ Boston, Program Director for KSTW/Seattle,
Director of Research and Media at WSBK-TV/Boston, and Katz Communications in
New
York.
Lee attended
Cornell University and graduated with a degree in Industrial and Labor
relations.
