Yes, that's right. The one smiling blonde from Fox that we could tolerate is back, and she's found a less abusive station!
The copy of the memo I received says McKay will start her new job at KUTV on Friday November 4th, taking over the job Kelly Chapman currently does on the AM show, as Kelly moves on to do traffic. For weeks the station had been plugging her before she was under contract. Now that she's tossed her name on the dotted line, ads with her in them are in full rotation int he 2News commercial line.
McKay left KSTU siting management problems, payroll isues, and the promotion of other female talent above her. She left for Sacromento (i know it's spelled wrong -- we need a spell check option) to start an anchor job, but was reduced to field reporter. Expressing interest in wanting to come back, KUTV was apt to open the door for her return.
To my knowledge, McKay is the first reporter from KSTU in close to 5 years to return to a SLC station as a reporter.
