Dave just got here and he’s leaving already? I thought he was going to replace Steve Rable.
That’s what I thought. I can’t find any explanation for his sudden departure so soon.
Dave is a great example of best in the business. But am I now the oldest dog in the kennel doing a news or public affairs show on Seattle TV? Good Lord.
There is a lot of sexism in tv news, but locally, ageism has not been an issue. Puget Sound area viewers like the veteran journalists, just like old slippers and worn, soft bath towels.
You’ve got at least another decade in you, Tom!
Dave Wagner reminded me of old school news anchors. David Rose is in that category. FOX 13 has to get Rose another crime-stopper show.
FOX 13 is leaning a bit woke so WMW is most likely gone for good. I always enjoy Mr Rose and miss WMW.
So sad to see you leaving Dave. You were a great and interesting reporter. You will be missed. Good Luck on your next venture and don’t forget about us here in Washington State.
I agree 100% with Mpursey. Dave is and always will be missed just like Steve Raible. Two very wonderful reporters/newscasters. Best wishes to you wherever you go. Please never forget us here. God Bless You.
