Survivors

A few at KTWO TV survived the Harriscope sale to stay the course with an extended career, at least through the NBC affiliation era.

Michelle Ferguson, went from accounting/administrative assistant to Jack Rosenthal to become a very successful general manager for KTWO TV through 1997, when she was replaced by Bonnie Foster. Dave Borino managed TV program traffic and air operations through about 1999.

On the production side, Mike McCrimmon, videographer started while in high school in 1979.  Mike "Spanky" McLemore was UW grad and started at KTWO in 1985. Many remember Ken Martin who died earlier this year, like many others in the KTWO family, he moved from TV to the radio station, which continued to run under the leadership of Rosenthal and Price.  Another face that moved from TV to radio was John Leader, he also helped with engineering tasks occassionally.

KTWO radio was recently up for sale to a group called the GAP, along with a bunch of other Clear Channel stations in the mountain west. Most likely this will be the end of the Rosenthal/Price era.
