The dean of the radio press corps at the state capitol is leaving KQED for a job in television. After spending nine years covering government and politics for the San Francisco pubcaster he’ll become political editor at Sacramento ABC affiliate KXTV. Here’s the announcement posted on his Facebook page:
On April 2, I'll trade headphones for makeup and join Sacramento ABC affiliate KXTV-TV News10 in the newly created job of Political Editor.
It's back to my roots in TV news, but the same CA politics beat I've had for a decade.
A very tough decision to end my tenure with the great folks at KQED, but an exciting new opportunity.
