Sports Director Bob Irzyk was laid off yesterday at KDAF/Dallas (“The 33″, as they call themselves these days). Irzyk’s departure is the latest in a series of cuts at the station, as Ed Bark reports on his Uncle Barky blog.
Irzyk, an Emmy winner, previously worked in Chicago and at WFTS in Tampa.
NOTE: We’re looking for help in your market compiling a list of the local tv newsers who’ve lost their jobs over the last year. Please forward names/links and suggestions for this; we’d like to get a true sense of just what these layoffs have done to our industry.
You are sorely missed Bob and I hope to see you at another station here in N TX. No more 33 for me, much good loss. It’s time David got axed!
