Dave Helling leaving KCTV

Posted on Apr 22, 2005 by BlogKC

KCTV-5′s long time anchor and political reporter Dave Helling is leaving Channel 5 soon. Appareantly the respected journalist finally had enough of the station’s new “Live, Late-Breaking, and Sleazy” orientation. Hopefully Helling’s reputation will recover from the fertilizer debacle and he will resurface elsewhere in KC. Note to Dave: Ever heard of blogging? Check it out.

    At least with Helling gone, channel 5 won’t have anymore journalistic conscience to restrain Steve Chamraz’s brilliant tabloid reporting.

    David has always been respected as a man
    and dedicated journalist. He started in NE
    for an affliated ABC TV station and out did
    his competition. A hard working guy that
    made the most of a good story. And not bad
    on the eyes. Somewhere along the road he
    fell in love with a co-journalist Terri. I am
    sure he continues to be a great husband and
    father and continues his hours of hard work
    for the best story he can produce.
