Heading to the Queen City (sidebar…how many cities call themselves that? A lot. So how is one expected to differentiate, remember which is which, etc. Asking for a friend) of Charlotte, NC is SHAY MENDES. She’ll be departing WDIV in the Motor City (sidebar…there is only one motor city so it’s easy to remember, etc.) where she was Creative Services Director for the Graham NBC affiliate. She’ll have the same title at Gray’s CBS outlet WBTV in Charlotte. She has her degree from San Francisco State U and honed her TV marketing talents at NBC’s WCAU in Philly. Love to hear about great new people in C-town (like fetch, that name probably won’t happen). Well Dunne! Shay!

I don’t talk about News Directors that much, but will make an exception for one of the best guys around who has just taken the ND slot for Tegna in West Texas. If you get to work with JOHN KIRBY, you will be a very happy and lucky person.
