KTTV Viewers Not So Keen on John Beard's Departure



The chatboards on Fox 11's website are running mostly against the station's decision to bring in KTLA's Carlos Amezcua to replace John Beard.

Actually, if you can read the graphic above, it's getting downright nasty. (I'm actually surprised KTTV has kept those comments up there, at least as of late yesterday.) Here's an example of the rough response:

KTLA did not want Carlos. I don't want Carlos. His face on ch 11 is as good a reason as any reason not to watch ch 11 news. Bizarre choice to be the face of a newsteam. Makes me wonder whose neck is going to get severed after this hiring decision!

Carlos Amezcua...is a fat faced talking head. In fact his neck fat folds over his shirt collar which is disgusting.
Looks like hes going to have a stroke with that tight neck collar and tie...maybe.

***
Carlos Amezcua?..Wow thats the best they could come up with as John Beards replacement?..I for one can't stand Carlos Amezcua, he's the sole reason I stopped watching ktla's morning show, and now the sole reason I will not watch Fox 11 news at 10!!
Good move Fox 11, whats next Carlos Amezcua on Good Day L.A....Geez, I sure hope that NEVER happens!

Ouch. Meanwhile, it's looking more and more like KTLA will promote from within for its 10 p.m. anchor (to replace the late Hal Fishman). More to come...
