After 13 years on the job, WLOS reporter Russ Bowen left the Asheville airwaves Feb. 8 for a new position co-anchoring the weekend news desk at KOMO–TV in Seattle.
In a live broadcast expected to reach nearly 100,000 voters tonight, Oct. 14, in the 11th District, incumbent Congressman Heath Shuler and his Republican challenger Jeff Miller will appear together on WLOS in an informal “sit down” with news anchor Russ Bowen. Xpress reporters Michael Muller and Jake Frankel visited the WLOS studios last night for a behind-the-scenes video tour of the studio and to get a preview of the big event.
