The #TelevisionAcademy honors veteran entertainment journalist Sam Rubin as the posthumous recipient of the 76th Los Angeles Area Emmy Governors Award, recognizing his legacy of over three decades of entertainment news reporting for @ktla5news. 💛 #LAEmmys
Not @NYTGames promoting itself in Connections today (and me not getting it right away)
Heartbroken and devastated. Sam was one of *the best* people I got to work with in news. He gave me so many breaks when I didn’t necessarily deserve them, and he taught me the importance of entertaining while informing. Sam was caring, thoughtful, and so, so smart. RIP
KTLA 5 is profoundly saddened to report the death of Sam Rubin. Sam was a giant in the local news industry and the entertainment world, and a fixture of Los Angeles morning television for decades. His laugh, charm and caring personality touched all who knew him. Sam was a loving husband and father: the roles he cherished the most. Our thoughts are with Sam’s family during this difficult time.

Fanboy moment!! I got to sit down with THE @MollyMcPherson (if you haven't seen her TikToks - go watch immediately) to talk about all things TV land: what goes on behind the scenes, and how you can be successful in a broadcast interview.
Had WAY too much fun - check it out 👇
