Radio (and TV) Waves

A Former KDKA employee must return data taken. When Carey Robinson, a former administrative assistant was told to clean out her desk she did. And the computer and the file cabinet and the email record.

A federal judge has ordered her to return stolen salary information and other materials to the station. The Post-Gazette says that the former administrative assistant stole proprietary salary information, read private emails and recorded phone conversations without permission during her time with the station. (That won't look good on a resume) The former employee has five days to turn in all of the information.

On the radio side of KD, KD, according to the PG There are more changes in radio news department. Paul Rasmussen has been hired from WQIK in Jacksonville to co-anchor the 5 & 6 PM "Total News Hour" with Rose Ryan-Douglas. Rob Milford will begin a new assignment as street reporter when he returns from a bout with laryngitis. (Devine intervention?) Lisa Alexander left the station last week. Alexander had been with KDKA in 1999.

Speaking of leaving, Ann Devlin has resigned from Pittsburgh Cable News Channel's NightTalk program to spend more time with her family. Devlin has hosted the show since 2003 when she replaced John McIntire. (Man that guy can't keep a gig!) Devlin made her Pittsburgh debut at WTAE-TV where she hosted "Pittsburgh's Talking" in the late 80s/early 90s.
