THV Hires Weekend Anchor/Reporter

This hire snuck up on me...KTHV/Channel 11/Little Rock has hired a new weekend anchor/reporter.  Phil Buck joined the station this month.  According to his bio, Buck began his broadcasting career at the CBS affiliate in Missoula, Montana. He worked his way up from part-time camera operator to eventually become the station's Sports Director, doing play-by-play and hosting coach's shows for the University of Montana football and basketball teams. After taking a job in the sports department at the CBS affiliate in Seattle, where he had the opportunity to cover teams he grew up watching like the Seahawks, Mariners and Washington Huskies, Phil returned to his previous station in Montana to anchor the morning news. 

Buck replaces Pam Baccam who left the station earlier this year.
