Paul Horton Out at CBS5

tvjobs.com is reporting that Paul Horton is out at CBS5 News. Indeed, his bio is gone from the website. Honestly, CBS5 has gone through more am anchors in the past 7 years since I arrived in Phoenix.

The question is: Who has more people in their studio at one time? NBC's Football Night in America or the CBS 5 Morning News? ;D

Channel 5 probably had one too many people on that show. I like Paul Horton, but he was effectively acting as a ringmaster, which really is an expendable position. They should just stick to the two anchors, one weather and one traffic person.

Send Nicole on her way and I'll start watching their nooncast again.

Why do so many people hate on Nicole? I actually like her.

This was my thought about their newscast as well. 12 News also has a similar issue when Joe, Syleste, and Faye are all in the studio at the same time. At least, GMAZ and its cast of characters only has two people at the anchor desk at the same time!

Paul Horton's bio was still on the CBS5AZ.com website just a minute ago listed under the weather team.

He was also on the air this morning just before 6:30.

Hmm...definitely something mysterious is going on here. I checked the website twice before I posted to make sure his bio was gone. There were definitely only 3 weather people on the website (Paul missing) when I started this thread yesterday.

Is there some behind-the-scenes wrangling going on? Did someone deliberately give the webmaster false information?
 
Hmmmmmm... Paul McCartney <-> Paul Horton

Perhaps Horton died and has been replaced by a lookalike imposter. We should immediately search past newscasts for clues. ;)

Cue the Enforcer theme and cut to Catherine Anaya in a very serious voice...

The CBS5 Investigators are investigating this story and will tell us the truth Wednesday at 10. And, be sure to check the backstory on cbs5az.com. :D
 
I was behind an SUV on Shea Blvd the other night with lettering that read: Paul Horton Golf Lessons.

Maybe he is starting a new career?

KeithE4 mentioned that he was on the morning show today. I also heard him on KOOL-FM along with Nicole on their "5 things you need to know" segment and he was also doing weather on the noon broadcast.

Not the first time TVJobs.com has had an "on the beach" report that wasn't real.
 
This is interesting. I know that FormerAA does (his/her) homework and obviously double-checked before posting. I wonder if someone did this just to check for leaks?

In any case, too bad because I don't like Paul Horton! I don't know why, I can't explain it. I used to watch KPHO but can't stand Horton.

Also, KPHO left a bad taste in my mouth after they didn't bring back Gina Maravilla after her maternity leave.
