Kirk Montgomery, entertainment reporter-anchor at KUSA since 2001, is out at 9News. He will move to at WILX, the NBC affiliate in Lansing, Mich. (market No. 115), reportedly to become anchor of a new 4 p.m. newscast.
Montgomery made the announcement via his Facebook page Wednesday after joking on the 4:30 p.m. broadcast about growing up in Michigan (and spending time on a llama farm).
He had written previously about not being offered a full one-year contract at Channel 9. On Twitter he said, “Mixed emotion I say goodbye to CO and @9NEWS on 5/9/14.”
Montgomery did not return calls for comment.
