Grant is gone. :(

Hi there--
I'm just SO bummed.
I can't believe that KATU took Grant off the news.
I know that some of you don't read the main board, so here is some awful news that I didn't want you to miss.
Please send a note to KATU about what you think of this.

"They've told him they don't see enough interest in the outdoors and environmental issues around here." :hoboy:


Just another reason not to watch KATU. I hope another local station will hire him soon.

WOW now that really "chaps my hide"
Is it just me or has the Outdoor section in the Oregonian disappeared also ?
Not "enough interest in the outdoors and environmental issues around here." In Oregon ????
Sounds like a money thing.

It really doesn't surprise me. Katu is not concerned about anything but the money and lets face it we spend our bucks enjoying the outdoors. A lot of people just plain don't want us doing what we enjoy.
There has been a big drop in the number of license buying sportsman in Oregon over the past few years and this does not show signs of correcting itself. Times are a changing. To bad. All we can do is take our kids and grand kids with us into the outdoors and hope it takes hold of them like it did us.
