    Hecker's interview with Alex Jones: FOX HR telling Hecker to stop criticizing censorship:
  2. Blue Dogs
    I figured Myers was going to stick around in Houston & wouldn't be surprised if he does the weekend weather with Fox 26 KRIV-TV Houston. Now the question is who'll take over the Traffic anchor duties on weekday mornings ?
  3. Blue Dogs
    I'm wondering how her former colleagues at Fox 26 KRIV-TV Houston are handling what Hecker did ?

    Here's more of Hecker being interviewed on why she's calling out Fox 26 KRIV-TV Houston: Ivory's official YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/IvoryHecker

    Check this out on Hecker's interview with Project Veritas: Hecker has her own YouTube Channel, which I've subscribed last year. She's also on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram.

    According to the Houston Chronicle, it appears Hecker got suspended then after more developments, they fired her altogether. It also seems like she had no intention of working with Fox News Channel either & had been plotting to bolt from Fox 26 since last August.

    Howdy everyone. Unless y'all have been living under rocks during the early part of the Summer, Fox 26 KRIV-TV Houston Reporter Ivory Hecker announced during the 5:00 PM Newscast yesterday evening that she's teaming up with Project Veritas in blowing the whistle on her own company. Something tells me Fox 26 GM & Executive VP D'Artanian Bebel is NOT thrilled with Hecker's Jack Bauer-esque rogue-ness including Hecker's accusations that Fox Corporation has been muzzling her from telling the truth to the viewers: https://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2021/06/ivory-hecker-fox-26-project-veritas.html The Houston Chronicle's title has Hecker claiming she's been muzzled by Fox 26 & the higher-ups of that station: https://www.chron.com/culture/tv/article/Houston-Fox-26-TV-Ivory-Hecker-Project-Veritas-16249035.php https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Houston-Fox-26-reporter-Ivory-Hecker-alleges-16247795.php Any thoughts on Hecker going off-script on live TV yesterday & the ramifications if she'll keep her job at Fox 26 ? Because once again, I've got a feeling D'Art either didn't know she was going to do this OR found out like everyone else & is PISSED off.

    For those, who missed Koch's final signoff from Ch. 13 on last Friday, May 28th: Big question is who'll replace Koch in weekday morning newscast for Ch. 13 ? I feel like a house-cleaning is still ongoing over there. A.) Jeff Ehling B.) Steven Romo C.) The Field

    Sad news for viewers of CBS 11 KHOU-TV Houston. Former CBS 11 KHOU-TV Houston reporter John "Rucks" Russell has passed away at the age of 55 yesterday. Russell's former colleague, former CBS 11 KHOU-TV Houston reporter & political analyst Doug Miller received the news from Russell's wife. On Miller's Facebook page, Miller posted a nice tribute for Russell: https://www.facebook.com/doug.miller.75033149/posts/10224020654571793 Russell worked at CBS 11 KHOU-TV Houston from 2006 to 2017, when he left the station to work as the Communications Director for US Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) in Washington, DC; he then became the Senior Media & Communications Specialist HHS Office of Minority Health & also last worked as Chief of Staff/Communications Director for Houston City Council. Prior to KHOU-TV, Russell worked for WNCN-TV Raleigh, NC., WRIC-TV Central Virginia as well as stops in Washington, DC., Orlando, FL & Roanoke, VA.

    Had no idea he was leaving CBS 11 KHOU-TV Houston. Big question is whether we're seeing a massive "Run for the Hills" stuff going on over there ?

    For those who are under rocks, the 2024 Presidential campaign has begun & for others: the GOP primaries began on Saturday, November 7th, 2020 when Biden was declared the 46th President defeating then-President Donald Trump. Big question is who'll be the GOP nominee for President in 2024 & could possibly win the White House ? A.) FL Governor Ron DeSantis (R) B.) Former President Donald Trump C.) Former VP Mike Pence D.) United States Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) E.) United States Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) F.) United States Senator Richard Scott (R-FL) G.) SD Governor Kristi Noem (R) H.) Someone we never see coming

    Yesterday, Weekday Traffic Anchor Katherine Whaley left Ch. 13 to spend time with her family. But something tells me we'll see her back on TV in a few years. With longtime Weekday Morning Anchor Tom Koch retiring after nearly 40 years on May 28th, it appears the weekday morning newscast will be looking different with possible more changes on the horizon: https://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2021/03/katherine-whaley-leaves-abc13-ktrk.html?m=1 Whaley's Instagram message to her followers on her decision to leave the ABC O&O Station: https://www.instagram.com/p/CM1yHFhpzMp/ https://www.facebook.com/photo?fibd=293015292188645&set=a.292306375542870 https://www.facebook.com/KatherineABC13 Chelsey Hernandez, who does the "Stretch Your Dollar" segments & recently moved to the weekday afternoons in 2019, has left the ABC O&O Station as well, plus her biography was taken off the station's website & Hernandez removed all mentions of Ch. 13 from her Social Media accounts: https://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2021/03/chelsey-hernandez-leaves-abc13-ktrk.html Any thoughts on the changes going on at Ch. 13 ? Big question is whether we'll see more departures down the road ?

    In a move that surprised some but didn't with others, HPD Police Chief Art Acevedo recently announced he was leaving the Space City for South Beach & becoming the new police chief of the Miami PD in Miami, FL. In his last press conference, he also got into another testy exchange with NBC 2 KPRC-TV Houston reporter Mario Diaz. Texas Monthly had an article detailing how Acevedo managed to piss off everybody. Give me your thoughts on Acevedo's tenure as HPD Police Chief & how he'll be remembered ? Yesterday inside Houston City Hall: Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner (D) announced Troy Finner would become the new HPD Police Chief replacing Acevedo.

    Tom Koch is retiring from Ch. 13 KTRK-TV Houston after 39 years with the ABC O&O Station he announced at the end of yesterday's weekday morning newscast. His final newscast will be on May 28th. "For nearly 40 years, I've been honored & humbled that so many people welcomed me into their homes every day," Koch said in a statement emailed to mikemcguff.com. "It's been a dream come true for a small-town Wisconsin kid to be part of this incredible station & truly great city of Houston. But I've decided it's time to step aside, turn off that early morning alarm & wake up to a new adventure." The station tells Mike McGuff of mikemcguff.com the week of May 24th, will be featuring an on-air celebration featuring Koch & his many achievements will begin, with a final goodbye on May 28th, 2021. Here are some videos of Koch's time with Ch. 13 over the years: Weekday morning newscast from March 6th, 1990. February 2nd, 1991.
