KMGH hires news director: Lindsay Radford
From The Denver Post:
KMGH-Channel 7 today named Lindsay Radford news director, effective April 30. She fills a position open for seven months (since Jeff Harris left for Cleveland last August). Radford returns to Denver from the Twin Cities, where she has been news director at KSTP and KSTC in St. Paul/Minneapolis for seven years.Radford is known for bringing Radford is known for bringing a focus on investigative and enterprise reporting to the Minneapolis stations, boosting the output to 55 hours of newscasts per week, and winning national awards for the effort.
Under her direction, KSTP won the prestigious Peabody Award for its yearlong investigation into military procedures that put service members at risk in Iraq and a National Emmy for its coverage of a deadly bridge collapse in Minneapolis.
Radford joined KSTP, the ABC affiliate in Minneapolis, in 2003 as an executive producer and became news director in 2008. She previously worked in Colorado as a producer at KCNC (1999-2002) and at KKTV (1997-98) in Colorado Springs.
“We own the investigative brand in the Twin Cities,” Radford said by phone, speaking of her current station. She has regularly tracked the Denver market since leaving here. “The markets are very similar. You have highly educated people, a public that really cares about news and craves good reporting.” In terms of the competition, “my goal is to challenge everybody in the market.” She plans to hire additional staff, specifically reporters.
KMGH General Manager Brad Remington, who recently returned to the station after 19 years at other TV stations and unrelated business ventures, praised Radford as an accomplished journalist who “recognizes the changing behavior of news consumers and that a digital-first focus is critical to driving up audience numbers across multiple platforms.”
