Is This the Next General Manager in LA? (Patreon)

Yesterday, FTVLive told you FIRST and EXCLUSIVELY that longtime KOMO (Seattle) General Manager Janene Drafs is leaving the Sinclair station by month’s end. 

There has been no official announcement, but we hear it is coming.  There has also been no mention of what she is going to do next?

A number of people say don’t be surprised if Drafs is named the new General Manager at Nexstar’s KTLA in Los Angeles. 

FTVLive told you that longtime KTLA GM Don Corsini “retired” and left the station at year’s end.  

Nexstar has not been happy with KTLA in the size of the staff or their news coverage. Sources tell FTVLive that Nexstar feels that KTLA is spending way too much of its news budget covering entertainment stories and not enough on news. 

Word is that Nexstar wants to refocus the coverage more on news and also plans on trimming bodies in LA. 

Lastly, Nexstar lacks in putting women or minorities in the corner office and the hiring of Drafs in LA would be a very smart move. 

Is it going to happen? 

We know she's leaving Seattle, although no one has said anything. 

And we will not be surprised if she ends up at KTLA.

Stay tuned....
