Tracy Rowlett
- Thread starter WGHRADIO
- Start date
He is, quite possibly, one of the last true journalists in this market. I think Byron Harris is possibly the last of the "Oklahoma Mafia" that Marty Haag brought down from OKC when he came to WFAA years ago.
I have trouble believing that the folks at Chesapeake are really going to let Rowlett be unbiased when he moves over to "Shale TV" (a web-based effort) later this month. But time will tell. His reputation precedes him, and if he's not allowed to do what he perceives is his job, look for him to resurface in broadcast TV (possibly at Channel 8).

Tracy really ought to write a book about his career. I think it would sell enough copies to justify its publication.
When I was a Radio/TV student at UTA in 1979, I recommended the book Dan Rather had written about his career, "The Camera Never Blinks," to the head of the Radio/TV department. He enjoyed the book, too. The next semester, that book became one of the text books used in the RATV classes.
A book by Tracy probably would become required reading for RATV college students in the North Texas region, as well.
