Both Switch Beats

Interestingly both Traffic anchors at 10 and 3 have slightly switched beats nearly at the same time.

Adrienne Bankert who joined the station four years ago as a traffic anchor is now reporting and fill-in anchoring. In fact this week she is anchoring the noon newscast from the mall bureau in for the Walt Gray. Bankert now offically host's Common Ground which is a community show that airs every month once on a sunday.


Angel Cardenas also switched beats...He is now the official 3rd Sports Reporter along with ''Bryan and Ryan'' (main sports anchors for 10) and he does a little filling now for Melissa Crowley who is the morning traffic anchor and does a little fill-in anchoring in from time to time.

Familar Voice/ Face leaves us

Dan Adams has been with KXTV News10 for nearly 30 years and on Saturday March 29th, he will retire. Dan said in a statement to Sac Bee Media's section that he will be moving to Mexico to enjoy more adventures on what life has to offer. In 2006 Dan later moved to the inland-bay area where he resided and moved away from the News10 Studios and mainly did stories in that area (ex. Fairfield, San Francisco, Santa Rosa) and he was considered a one-man-band which means he did his own shots and edited his stories all by himself which is now a days considered as a Multi-Media Journalist if i'm not mistaken. When Dan made his move he had less on-air time than he did when he was in the newsroom so most people probably wouldn't recognize him. But for people who were loyal viewers will remember his strong broadcasting voice.

Former Sacramento Sports Journalist under Warm Water

Former News10 sports anchor Dana Jacobson is under warm water after making an inappropiate reference to Norter Dame. In a statement, Jacobson said, "I am sorry. My remarks about Notre Dame were foolish and insensitive. I respect all religions and did not mean anything derogatory by my poorly chosen words.
