King 5

ok, I dont mind the new station format anymore. great reporting, my favorite local news station

I feel it’s important to note that King5’s ‘THE BEST OF WESTERN WA’ online voting needs to be re-​evaluated for 2015.
For example, a POLE DANCING business w/​a dirty dancing video, should not have competed against all dance studio’s for CHILDREN. Also, the pole dancing business took top 5 this year, which took away from the CHILDREN who dance at the studio in the 6^th place. Only the top 5 are acknowledged.

I had the unique opportunity to be on New Day Northwest. It was a lot of fun getting to experience the behind the scenes and talking with Margaret Larson, she was so professional and easy to talk to you. The staff at the station knew I was nervous and took us out to the stage so that we could be comfortable with the set up and where we would be sitting. It was nice to be prepped so thoroughly it made my nerves slightly more at ease once I went out and was being filmed :)

KING 5 is the most offers boring and oldest news broadcast anchors! To hard to watch them in HDTV. It’s like an episode of fright night at Halloween time.
If I watch local dribble it’s Q13 Fox for the lady’s !

The KING 5 morning crew is second to none!

I popped into the station to be in the audience for New Day Northwest — great fun! My only complaints have to do with other audience members (nothing King5 can do anything about).
Great fun if you’ve got a morning free!

I’ve just been reminded once again why I read the morning paper instead of watching morning news. Why do they all feel the need to YELL the news and stuff at us? Why the hysteria on every little news bit. Is Tracy Taylor really going for an academy award in the traffic reporter category? Can you turn her down a tad? Can someone please restrain Joyce T. a little too? She jerks and bobs around so damn much you cant focus on her. You guys may have been up for hours and had your caffeine shots but most of us are still just getting our shields up to full power. The good news KING is that you’re not the worst at the high energy morning news. The people at Q13 all look and sound like they’ve done meth before camera time… bug eyes and all. You’re still my favorite news station but only at night.

King 5 is super.

I only watch King 5 for one reason: Jesse Jones!
He IS the man, he has capitalized on the «By Mennen» effect, explained in depth on a classic episode of «Seinfeld»
If you hear a phrase long enough, its sure to catch on. And i love how he ends with saying «Jesse Jones, King-​5 News», exactly the same way every time. It really sticks. He used to be a field reporter, and I believe the fact that he has his own segment now is directly linked to him branding his own name.
Go Jesse Jones, King-​5 News, you the man, man!

I just read their weather page. That’s why I am writing this review.
Personally I am happy to no longer clutter my life with a tv.
All I wanted to know is. is there snow in the state?
I can’t tell from their colorful interactive choppy weather page.
Another reviewer said, «well this is Seattle, they can’t ever get weather right.»
No kidding!
I am out of work. Can I have a weather man job? I don’t need any skill.
Oh, look, the day will begin. Oh, my, it’s a bit cold. Oh, it will warm up a bit and we will have snow or rain or both and some wind and a tiny clearing. Then more of all of it.

I like news. i try to stay atop of things. so i get my info from king 5 usually… and the 4 reasons why…
1. jesse jones– u dont mess with jesse. and i like how he closes out his segment saying his name
2. lisa gangel– she needs to go national in sports. good at her job. and easy on the eyes
3. danger jim foreman… if there is a crisis. jim is around the corner… and his hair is something to be seen
4. carolyn douglas– good anchor… good banter when news is slow… hot as hell
i will stay with king 5 for those reasons

Home of the ‘stache heard ’round the world:
Other than that, I mix up all the other talking heads.

Helllooo!!! MIMI JUNG!!!

King 5 used to be my favorite until I asked for a little help with a school assignment… all I needed was a photo of one of the anchors, and something with the logo on it. They basically kicked me out of the lobby and told me that the only person who could help me was going to be on vacation for a month. No love for the community! Plus the receptionist has tattooed eyeliner, creepy.
