KETV anchor Rob McCartney (pictured left) is retiring on the finish of 2025 after 40 years in native TV.
“Forty years goes by in a flash. It’s been my unbelievable honor to have the ability to convey you a few of the most related and significant tales throughout that point,” McCartney mentioned. “I’m humbled that you’ve trusted me all these years.”
McCartney is the longest-tenured information anchor in KETV historical past. He’s been on the Omaha, Nebraska ABC affiliate since 1984.
“Rob is the consummate journalist,” mentioned KETV president and normal supervisor Allison Smith. “He’s continually asking questions and on the lookout for tales that must be instructed. He actually cares about Omaha and our neighborhood.”
“We’ll miss Rob’s management within the newsroom however want him effectively, as he can spend extra time together with his household and do the issues he enjoys most,” Sarah Klinger, KETV information director, mentioned.
