Whatever happened to...?

I

Iowan

You know, I gotta ask about people formerly in the Quad Cities media. I just recently saw a commercial where KWQC weatherman Ryan Burchett was leaving the station. It got me wondering on other anchors, reporters, meteorologists, etc. Here's a list of QC notables on TV:

- Libby Allison (last seen as KLJB co-anchor)
- John Beard (last seen as KLJB co-anchor)
- Ellen Chang (first KLJB co-anchor)
- Ed Heiland (last seen as WHBF anchor)
- Tambery Laine (first as WHBF anchor and last seen as KWQC anchor/reporter)
- Mike Mickle (former KWQC anchor)
- Ken Price (former WQAD/KLJB reporter)
- Don Rhyne (former KWQC anchor)
- Greg Wilson (1980s co-anchor at WHBF and first KLJB co-anchor)
- Andrea Zinga (former anchor at 3 stations)

I understand that Charles King retired from his job as KWQC co-anchor to Colorado and WQAD weatherman Neil Kastor moved to Florida. Also, Kurt Liske was also a reporter for the Fox 18 News when it was at INN, but he was also most recently seen on the WQAD-produced version...Where are they now?
 
Allison: Nighttime anchor at NBC station in Charlottesville, Va.
Beard: Mornings in Madison at ABC station
Laine: Working for INN
MIckle: News director and Omaha anchor for INN
Price: Fox TV in KC
Zinga: Home in Coal Valley, I assume. (Saw her hub a few weeks ago)
 
Didn't Andrea Zinga run for some sort of political office here a few years ago?

Twice, against Phil Hare in '04 and '06.

P.S.: My apologies, ocmccormick. It's now clear you are not who I thought you were.
