Bloodbath at KTBS/Shreveport

This from a tipster: KTBS: Friday May 1st. . . one of the bloodiest in the station's history as more than 15 employees were let go as a "reduction in force" layoff to save costs at the station. Some rumors are that the station will eventually phase out a formal production dept.

All this happens coming on the recent hiring of former KSLA veteran sportscaster, Bob Griffin who is supposedly doing part-time travel features once a week for KTBS. And the possible return of former weathercaster Jennifer Gray who left station to work in Miami.
