The Story this Nexstar Station Isn't Telling You (Patreon)

KTVX in Salt Lake City did a story about how many of their station's employees are being hacked and having their personal information stolen.
KTVX Good Things Utah host Nicea DeGering has been a target and says that over the last several months, viewers, guests of the show and even strangers have reached out to say they’ve been contacted by a “Nicea DeGering” inappropriately.
She also says that she been put on no less than six dating sites including Tinder, Bumble and Match without her permission.
The station posted the story and video online, but they left out one very key detail.
It seems the person hacking DeGering and other female employees at the station, works for the station.
To find out that information, you need to head over to Scripps owned KSTU for the story.
KSTU writes that KTVX staffers "were notified by management on Sunday that a male co-worker had accessed the private email, social media and cloud photo accounts of several female employees, including on-air personalities, through their work computers and cell phones.
It was not immediately known what information and data were taken, or for what purposes.
That employee, a video editor who has worked at the station for five years, was confronted by management last Wednesday and confessed, sources said.
No charges had been filed as of Thursday morning."
Not sure why KTVX would leave the key part of the story out of the story, but this shows you why you need stations with different owners in each market.
Imagine if Nexstar controlled all stations in Salt Lake City, this info may never have been reported.
This my friends is why the FCC has to hold firm on consolidation and not let one company have too much control.
Nexstar should look into why one of their stations did not report the full story to their viewers.
