Weekend in February.
I’m so grateful for this opportunity to continue my work in a network news leadership position…in a city I called home for 10 years!
Cheers to an exciting 2024!
A little news to announce...

"It wasn't mental health that killed these people, it was an automatic rifle with bullets... I'm a former police officer, a former Army officer. These M4s, AR-15s, they've got to get off the streets or this is going to keep happening" - Allen, TX mall shooting witness Steven…
This amazing woman’s fight against Stage IV cancer is over.
She passed peacefully tonight as my sister and I held her hand.
Being the son of Beulah “Bea” Baker Reynolds is the greatest honor of my life.
You will be forever in my heart, Mama.

team inside courtroom:
“TRUMP IMMEDIATELY GETS UP AND STORMS OUT OF THE COURTROOM WITH SECRET SERVICE AGENTS CHASING AFTER HIM….COMPLETELY UNEXPECTED AND SURPRISING TO HIS OWN ATTORNEYS …COURTROOM GASPED”
Breaking news out of Kentucky - State Rep. Dan Johnson who was under investigation for allegedly molesting a teenage girl commits suicide.
Johnson defiantly refused to resign after the allegations.
Something to remember in the Arbery case: Arbery was murdered in February 2020. The arrests weren't made until the video went viral in May 2020. Glynn Co. DA Jackie Johnson refused to allow arrests then recused herself. She was indicted on obstruction charges in Sep. 2021.
Iconic image. Tears streaming down her face, Emma Gonzales in silence for 6 minutes 20 seconds to commemorate how long the rampage at Stoneman Douglas lasted.
On the evening Robert Mueller submitted his report to the Justice Department, President Trump was on the tiled patio of Mar-a-Lago, bathed in golden light, with his wife and son Barron, who had reached teenagerhood two days earlier
The best part of my day: after getting Mom settled at the hospice facility, I kissed her forehead and she smiled at me.
She’s struggling to communicate but in that perfect moment, no words were needed
We need more Dolly Partons in the world.
She …
-helped create 23k jobs and $1.8 billion economic impact in TN
-gifted 200 million + books to kids around the world
gave $1k month to families impacted by TN wildfires
-helped fund Moderna COVID vaccine

people who know nothing about grief are always the first to comment on things like this. grief isn't one size fits all. people grieve in different ways.

Update on Mom: she moves to hospice care in the morning. We’ll cherish the remaining time we’re blessed to have with her.
Thank you all for your kind words and continuous prayers.
TV viewers, over the next 2 weeks, some reporters will be getting their first professional experience on the anchor desk due to holidays and vacations. Be kind to them. They’re taking time away from their families to bring you the news.
COVID. Deadly tornadoes and floods. Mass shootings. Gov. Beshear led KY thru a brutal past few years and earned a lot of respect from people outside his own party.
Assuming Beshear wins, National media will try to make it about Trump/Biden, Abortion, etc
What is about is that Kentuckians think Andy Beshear is a good man who did a solid job during some very difficult tragedies
Nothing more, nothing less. It’s not national, it’s Kentucky
Today in local tv markets across the country, many Reporters will anchor their first newscasts, Associate Producers will produce their first newscasts. This is an exciting time for them! A mean tweet / post can shake their confidence. Be kind today…and every day….and THANK YOU!

1. I know this weekend is difficult for those of you whose moms have passed away.
I also know this weekend is painful for those of you who have decided that it's not healthy to have a relationship with your mom.
Just wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you.
