Rich Segal- Wichita Falls/ Denison

[Don62]

Separated from an earlier thread.

Didn't Rich Siegel, formerly of KAUZ-6, Wichita Falls, go to Ada after the debacle in WF?

Don goes to the wayback machine and pulls out the name Rich Siegel!

Yes, he did. Rich did weather at KTEN for a number of years before moving on to Austin television. I am not sure what he's up to these days.
Rich is pretty good guy who got a very raw deal in Wichita Falls.

Agreed. Did you know Segal when he was at KAUZ?

I worked with him from '83-'86. I heard about the "raw" deal but chalked it up to rumor, innuendo, and possibly a disgruntled co-worker. Not knowing the facts, I couldn't comment.

Nice to know he landed on his feet in Austin.

I worked alongside him on air from 1986 to 1989 or so.
I too was shocked as the incident all came suddenly and even hit the Times Record News.
It may well have been a set-up or rumour. I don't know.
I do know Rich is an honorable person to work with. I enjoyed working with him and learned a lot from him.

I'm assuming that's your real name. Was it production you were in at KAUZ?

Suffice to say, Rich sued and won. It was totally not true. He did land on his feet at KTEN and then in Austin. I don't recall which station he was on down there though. He's a good guy and deserves a lot better than he's gotten in this business.

Can someone please tell me what happened in this incident?
I can't find it in another thread........

 

[Don62]

It was an ugly rumour.

I heard some things but don't want to say anything that might be considered slanderous.

I'll leave it to others to explain if they feel necessary.

I was in news with Lynn Walker, Kay Shannon, Troy Jensen, and those folks.

 

[stinker]

any idea if Lynn Marshall is still in/on Tv in WF??

The rumor concerned the third graf of this column.
I heard that this ugly rumour spread to other markets. I don't know who was behind it or why.
