“We’ve known this day was coming for some time,” Heacox told staff. “Jim’s support and leadership over the last year enabled me to focus on moving KING 5 into the space we’re all standing in today. He kept the business moving forward during that time and now he will get to shape KING 5 on his own. You’re all in very good hands.”

Rose started at KING in 2000. He worked his way up through the Sales department to be named vp and station manager in 2014.
