As an observation, the past 6 months, KETV has lost a significant amount of on air talent.. It's been a revolving door over there.. I'm used to seeing that on WOWT or KMTV3.. I wonder what's up lately at KETV 7?...

Because they hire better people, therefore they lose them. There isn't one reporter at Seven with the level of incompetence as those reporterettes at 3 or 6.
No arguing the eye test on that one. 7, while not perfect by any means, far exceeds 3 and 6 in on air professionalism, accuracy, delivery etc etc.. And we won't even include KPTM..
This said, I find it a bit amusing that KETV 7, who goes a long way promoting they hire hometown people (who know Omaha and want to live in Omaha) to deliver "our hometowns most accurate news, weather and sports", seemingly has turned into a revolving door of talent loss since January..
The reality is, Omaha is a transient television market. Whether the on air talent is Omaha bred or not, a goodly number have a goal to want to leave for the "next, best, bigger market"..
I've obviously never measured this, but my guess is about 20%, maybe that number is closer to 10%, are hired as on air talent in Omaha television and stay at least 5 years...
