Jacksonville GM is Out
A couple of sources tell FTVLive that WTLV/WJXX GM Eric Land is out at the Gannett station.
Land was named GM of the station two years ago. "I'm very anxious to be part of making history here," said Land upon meeting the staff in August of 2012.
It looks like Land will end up being only a small part of the history of First Coast News with just a short stint at the station.
Land is still listed on FCN's website as the GM and his voicemail is still setup at the station.
In FTVLive's dealing with Land, he was not very forthright with us.
It appears that karma might have bitten back.
Here is the very short internal memo that was sent inside Gannett:
