I've noticed that Sterling is doing the 6:00 weather and has been for quite some time.
Any inside info on Roland Steadham?

What has me curious is that they aren't mentioning him. No, "Roland's on vacation. Sterling's in with the weather." I remember when DJ and PK left 1280 it was the Manly Morning Show with DJ & PK. Then suddenly it was just the Manly Morning Show but they were also still on the 1280 website.
Just wondering if he's a victim of the budget cuts @ KUTV

Who cares? good riddance to Sgt Hairclub! id rather watch Sterling any day, and never understood the reasoning behind bringing Roland in, he's lame, unfunny, arrogant, and all together unwatchable, I have never had a problem with Sterling, then it's like he just disappeared and all these lames, came in, like The Golden Doppler, who I noticed is on Fox 13 doing weather now? oh! well, now I don't have to flip over during the forecast while I'm watching 2News!

Roland was good for one thing only and that was the pause button on my dvr. Nine out of ten times you could pause him and his face would freeze in some goofy manner.... That was the only thing that made watching Roland "The Burger King" Steadham worth while.

Roland took a buyout from KUTV. He's been hired at KTVX. Starts this Friday May 1st.
Best of luck to KTVX.

I must be in the minority, but I kinda like Roland. Yes, Sterling has been there for years and probably should have got the job when Mini-Mark left, but I find that Sterling's 7 day forcast tends to be pretty inaccurate. He takes a few more guesses than the others do, and some of his "slides" can be a little obnoxious. Maybe it's must me.

So does that mean Todd Gross goes to weekends or is he gone?

After forcing myself through an entire Roland forecast, I don't know how anybody could apply the label"obnoxious" to any other meteorologist! Roland was the definition of obnoxious, when one forgets they are there to give the weather to the public, and are instead telling themselves how good they look, and how the public should thank the lord that they get to watch Roland, that's when it becomes obnoxious, at least that's what I thought! I'm not talking about his meteorology skills, I'm very sure he had those at one point, but half of watching any news, is having a feeling of sincerity while watching the cast, at least for me, and that's definitely where Roland had a big!!! void.

And what was Barb Smith doing on there a couple of weeks ago? Just filling in? I happened to be channel surfing and saw her face.. I had to stop for a minute to see where I was...

Onairovernight, you'll have to send me the quotes of Roland telling everybody how good he looked, I really don't ever remember hearing that.
It's amazing to me that everybody seems to be so down on Roland and yet nobody says a word about Debbie Worthen, who isn't even a meteorologist, running the exact same forecast from whoever put together the forecast the night before.
Now that's fresh air.

I didn't see where it says thats what Roland said, his whole persona drips of self admiration, and arrogance! It's amazing to me that everybody seems to be so down on Roland and yet nobody says a word about Debbie Worthen, who isn't even a meteorologist, running the exact same forecast from whoever put together the forecast the night before. Now that's fresh air. That's because nobody watches Debbie Worthen! You Do?
