News Director Out...

Emmy Award-Winning Stacy Owen has been the news director at News10 for almost 4 years and will be leaving the station at the end of February. "When I came to Sacramento, I had the goal of taking News10 to No. 1," Owen said in a statement to the Sacramento Bee. "I came, and I did that and transformed it to a multimedia news organization. I've accomplished what I set out to do." Prior joining News10 in August of 2005, she worked over 10 years at KRON 4 in San Francisco. Right now they are looking for a news director, and its unsure where Owen is off to next. I was thankful to meet Owen in early 2007 during a job shadow at the station and chat for a few moments.
