Scott Thompson removed from KOTV

http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/5/25/gone-in-tulsa

This is after 17 years with the station. Changes coming to the Morgan Murphy Takeover?

Good afternoon,

After much thought, consideration and discussion Scott Thompson and News On 6 have decided to move in different directions. Scott will not be in today, but will return Thursday. His last day on air will be Friday, May 25th at 6pm.

Scott has been an important part of the history of News On 6, and we appreciate all he has done for the station, company and community. His passion for storytelling set him apart and touched many lives. We are grateful for his service and wish him only the best.

After Scott’s last night, Craig Day will be the new co-anchor with Terry Hood at 6pm and 10pm, in addition to his current role as co-anchor with Lori Fullbright at 5pm. Craig is a Green Country native, trusted journalist and admired person both in the station and community. Please join me in congratulating him on his new role.

Craig and Terry will continue to co-anchor the 9pm news on the CW for the time being. However, as we evolve and grow our product and staff, we will begin the search for two additional anchors/reporters to co-anchor the 9pm news on the CW and report for News on 6 at 10pm. The goal is to have these people in place by early Fall.
 
Last time I checked, Morgan Murphy wasn't buying Griffin, and Griffin didn't say it was for sale.

Thanks for the corrections it was Saga that Morgan Murphy had agreements to.
KOAM was the one being targeted for Morgan Murphy.

But back to Thompson what a great run and we will find out more details on how KOTV removed him soon.
