Life After News

TV news anchor and reporter Paulina Bucka left Newschannel 13 this year after just four months on the job. On this episode of The Eagle, she talks to Kristi Gustafson Barlette about why she left the station, why she thinks so many of her fellow local broadcast journalists are leaving the industry, and why she’s starting a new podcast.

Also on this episode, nearly three years after a tragic limo crash in Schoharie county killed 20 people, the operator of the limo company pleads guilty to criminally negligent homicide, incurring no prison time. Times Union Editor-in-Chief Casey Seiler discusses the plea deal and other news of the week, including the effects of the devastating downstate flooding from Hurricane Ida and the tearful homecoming of a local mother and her four children, who escaped Afghanistan to start a new life in Albany.

Finally, we bid farewell to retiring sportswriter Pete Dougherty with a look back at his career.
