HomeBreaking NewsTHE DAILY GRIND – AUGUST 24TH, 2016 – CHANNEL 13 KTNV REPLACES BLACK FEMALE ANCHOR FOR DUI WITH WHITE MALE ANCHOR WITH MULTIPLE DUI’S AND PUBLIC SEX IN A PARK ARREST Breaking News, Local, Politics, TV CHANNEL 13 KTNV REPLACES BLACK FEMALE ANCHOR FOR DUI WITH WHITE MALE ANCHOR WITH MULTIPLE DUI’S AND PUBLIC SEX IN A PARK ARREST August 24, 2016 On may 20, 2016, Channel 13 KTNV released the following statement firing News Anchor Rikki Cheese, a Black woman: “KTNV Vice President and General Manager Jim Prather has announced that Rikki Cheese is no longer an employee of the station. Cheese was arrested by Las Vegas Metropolitan Police last Thursday on suspicion of DUI. It is her second DUI arrest. Her first court appearance is scheduled for June 20.” This Month Channel 13 KTNV hired Jon Ralston, a white man, with at least one documented arrest for DUI, and according to sources, maybe as many as 4 DUI’s and an arrested for having sex in a public park with a lobbyist. BTW this is the same Jon Ralston who called Nevada Republican elected leaders racists for supporting Donald Trump in his June 7th article in the Reno Gazette writing “Donald Trump has a history of misogyny, racist comments,” then saying “I wonder: When these Nevada Republicans go home at night, what do they tell their wives? Or more importantly, for those who have them, what do they tell their kids?” NEWSMAXTV LAS VEGAS reached out to local NAACP chapter for comment as well and never heard back. POSTED AUGUST 25, 2016 Channel 13 KTNV’s Jim Prather, VP & General Manager: “Jon Ralston was hired as an independent contractor to provide analysis of Nevada politics. Your sources are incorrect. He has one DUI conviction from 2005 on his record. The other claims are false. He provides a valuable service for KTNV and for our audiences with his analysis and reporting.”
