is that News ten is announcing sports director Griffin Hass

stuff very often.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
And that's we have a lot of friends in the
TV business, and I have a lot of friends who
started in sports who have progressed. You want to hold
onto your job, you have to move into being an anchor.
Very few, like there's very Roger Wiland's around who can
stay in this as a sportscatter whole career.

Speaker 1 (00:33):

gaged or something, right.

Yeah, I'm not sure which, but I think he's yes.

Speaker 1 (00:40):

you want to keep him together. If you got two people,
you don't want them to you know, keep him around.

thought of. He lost his.

then she didn't take that job, and now she's not
coming back to mornings.

wouldn't hold you back. Bro, Bro, come on, can't stop
you from moving up.
