Other than KGW sports director Scott Lynn, who mentored me, trained me and got me hired out of college-- Brenda Braxton and Dave Salesky are the most influential colleagues of my 31 years in TV news. After a series of anchor team combinations, we kind of fell together and became the top rated morning newscast in Portland. In our time together-- on that god-awful (yet family friendly) early morning shift—we all grew up, cared for each other, laughed and cried. In this conversation we talk about why the chemistry worked on and off the air, some of out struggles, our fond memories, and the difficult day when we were unexpectedly broken up. The opinions expressed about that decision are our own—not each other’s, but they are compelling, I think. I love these two like a brother and a sister, and I’m indebted to them for the most important eight years on my life in TV news.
