“A popular local blog” receives mention

After months of lamenting on this here web log, the citizens of Sacramento were rewarded today as the Sac Bee finally did a piece on the whereabouts of Paul Joncich and Jennifer Whitney and in doing so found time to mention the Sac Rag.

It helps that he’s had tremendous support from viewers, Joncich says. A popular local blog, sacrag.com, has served as something of a grief-support group for fans of “Paul and Jen” — their casual on-air names for each other.

Casual on-air names for each other? At any rate, it is a good piece and answers many of the questions many Sacramentans have asked since their departure.

Joncich and Whitney still wish they had been given the opportunity to say farewell to viewers on the air when they left. (Valenzuela, who left in late January, negotiated a good-bye statement into her severance agreement.) “The viewers were confused when Jennifer and I just disappeared,” Joncich says.

They sure were.

  1. “And here’s something else the three have in common: None watches Channel 13’s newscasts these days.

    “I’ve tried, but I just can’t,” Joncich says.”

    Funny, CBS13’s viewers say the same thing.

  6. Joncy is so full of it. Out of work for 8 months and claims only two jobs were available in the whole US. Ha Ha. Fact of the matter is Joncy was way over his head at KOVR, had no business being the “main” anchor there, and isn’t good enought to land anywhere else. So, now he’s stooping to a weekend anchor / ughh – reporter position. My mY, Paul, vacation is over.

  7. Paul Joncich is eye candy and knows how to read. So, he’s qualified to be an anchor! Those at channel 13 think that firing such a good-looking guy will get them more viewers?

  9. What’s with the 2 new bimbos on channel 13 evening news. Can hardly bear watching anymore and all the banter makes me soooo bored. Marcy, Jen and Paul were so much more with it.
