Bay Area TV loses more familiar faces, and the revolving door at KRON4 continues as movie critic Jan Wahl has left the troubled station. Word around town is that Wahl, who also works the same gig at KCBS Radio, and is known for her trademark hat, has been trying mercifully to jump off the YOUNG Broadcasting-owned sinking ship for some time. And Wahl's bail is not the only news.
There is growing perception that at least two notable anchors, Pam Moore, who is on the station's weeknight newscasts, and Vicki Liviakis, who anchors the weekend news are both unhappy, but are contractually bound to remain at the once-prestigious SF Independent.

SO LONG JOE STARKEY...
Joe Starkey, longtime Bay Area Sports fixture and broadcaster, recently ended his 20-year tenure as the voice of the NFL's San Francisco 49ers. Starkey will continue to broadcast Univ. of California Football on KGO Radio. Starkey's replacement is NBC and Bay resident play-by-playman Ted Robinson.

QUESTION OF THE DAY:
Just how many times will local Sports talkie KNBR have ex-NFL/49ers player, Ronnie Lott on thier various shows? Lott's air nadir has reached epic proportions on the "knibber" outlet; what? Dwight Clark wasn't available?
