    2. No thank you. Lim out has been the biggest improvement to morale. Julian is missed, Reggie is a great anchor and will be hard to see him go. You wouldn’t be able to stand her if you actually knew her or had to work with her. So fake, so conceded, so glad she is gone.

    3. @ 3:33 What's "conceded?" You mean conceited? I take it you're not well educated to work at ABC 7 as in the newsroom? Maybe cafeteria?

    4. 4:40 PM- Oh no, I made a spelling error! Admitting I’ve made a mistake. Something Dion NEVER did. Especially in the face of issues with facts, balance, journalistic integrity. That all didn’t matter to her “reporting” especially if was a story to gain her clicks and engagement. Oh and what about the LIES she spread about Julian? Yeah… hope she sleeps well at night surrounded by her grand visions of herself. Byeeeeeeee!

    5. Just over here waiting for the Dion, “Stay Tuned!! It’s Awesome!” Deets to drop. lol

    6. @ 3:33 & 5:58 Ok, jullian glover

    7. To the person who thinks Dion and Julian actually had beef: You obviously don't work at KGO or you are misinformed. I worked with both of them personally and the entire thing was overblown.

    8. @4:13 Truth is out there for those who seek it.

    9. I don't miss Dion Lim one single bit. Never could stand her. Her attempts at bantering when it was so obvious she had no idea what she was talking about were embarrassing.

  3. People come and go there all the time. It's the nature of the business. I wish Reggie good luck.

  4. Bless the blok who said, "bring back Dion Lim!" Hey Rich you never have wrote about talk show host Armstrong and Getty. What do they have on you?

  5. End of month end of contract. Reggie probably thought he was worth Ashley money and the mouse with a push from Ming told him to hit the bricks.

    They are now down 3 anchors with Aqui, Lim and Glover gone. thye seem to like to promote from within as its cheaper. You have to figure they give Stone or Martinez the weekend. the other gets Glover's mid day whoever Ming can stand.

    I bet they hire Francis Wang for the mornings instead of trolling Fresno and Sacramento for a replacement.

    1. Francés Wang picked a good time to join KGO. She’ll be sitting in an anchor chair by years end.

    2. I dont think she came on as a freelance after leaving Philly by accident

  6. Why is he leaving the station? They put two fags on mornings to gain their people watching the morning news, did their power drop so they drop Reggie?? Drew, better watch out and find another job just incase. Good news, I was praying Reggie will not replace Dan when he retires.

  7. Fresno and Sacramento aren't bad.

  8. Any idea will KGO 7 hire a new male reporter to replace Girl Aqui?? I am leaning towards J.R. Stone, weekend anchor. Aqui came from weekend slot with Natasha and both got the morning spot. There are not too many male reporters on the station.

  9. ah, who is going to fawn endless at the Pride Parade? Who is going to be the gay boy now? Reggie had a good run. Good to see ABC7 finally living up to their moniker of building a better bay area.

  10. Reggie should be the host of Live In The Bay on KRON or a game show host. That's the best use of his talents.

    1. @ 7:11 Thanks, you just made me push my coffee out of my nostrils, Live in the Bay is bad enough without Olivia Horten and you want to make it sicker?

      Delete
    2. Olivia Horton has been gone now for 1 year. She wanted more money at KRON4 Nexstar said no so she said adios.

  11. If Gloria Rodriguez were removed from my TV in the early mornings, I'd be grateful. I won't miss Aqui either but I just cannot stand the way Rodriguez chooses to speak -- it's not an accent, it's an affectation that drives me nuts. Fingers crossed!

  14. Influential member of the news staff? You have alluded that Kristen is in charge, do you mean her? Did she kick Aqui, Lim and Glover out? Who is running the darn place? Just wondering how you really think the world works. It’s fascinating the webs you spin based on crumbs of truth and lack of the television industry knowledge.

    1. You have to know that Ming is in Trixie's ear. To say she has no influence is just being deaf and blind

      Delete
    2. @4:31- first off that’s not their names. That’s a gross Trump style tactic he uses because he got called out for being gross by Kristen. So booo to you for repeating trash.
      Honestly Rich has been far less icky since he got called out. Good progress! But back to looking for truth, what proof do you have that she has any influence, power or control?
      Repeating a lie doesn’t make it true. I doubt they have this imaginary power unless we are in a small market and the anchor is the ND, maybe? Just so silly.
      Is that what he meant? Please clarify Rich.

    3. @ 6:49 Ok empress ming

      Delete
    4. ok i'll rewrite it.

      Kristen Sze who has a destain for her viewer almost as much as she does for her co workers. she undermines he co workers like Crabs in a bucket to stay at the top of the KGO heap. Dion was a threat, she disagreed with Glover and she was not a fan of Reggie's style so they had to go.

      Her Boss Tracy Witkowski Silva is either willfully blind or has her favorites in the news room that has caused a mass exodus. either way it does not reflect well on her as a leader in the newsroom but someone at Disney corporate must like her because she keeps the costs down

    5. @2:44 Thank you for correcting names. Spelling is a bit off but it was better than name calling. interesting theory. That’s not how this world works. Good try though! How does one judge the disdain for viewers? Does Nielsen track that now? Learn something new everyday!

      Delete
    6. I am a viewer and feel she talks down to me. that is validation enough

      Delete
    7. @6:03 I can see why you are a big Kristen fan. Your moral superiority is showing

      Delete
  15. Please get rid of Amanda Del Castillo. She acts like a B with a rude sassy attitude on tv. A new make over please.

    1. She acts like all the girls at Serramonte Mall.

    2. Serramonte Mall is her hood, filipina town

    3. I totally agree. I can't watch the mornings anymore because she is always trying to outshine the guests. It's all about her.

  16. I LOVE Reggie! He is smart and so kind! And fun too. The humor of so many news folks is grating, but not Reggie's. He is a great guy to start the day with, my favorite!!! I end up watching GMA and I know that makes them happy. But I will REALLY miss Reggie and I am really sorry he is leaving. I can hardly believe this!
