KDFW Reporter Matt Grubs Announces Departure

By Merrill Knox 

KDFW reporter Matt Grubs is leaving the Dallas area to be closer to his family, he announced yesterday in an email to staffers obtained by Uncle Barky’s Bytes.

“Personally, it’s a good move for us,” Grubs wrote in the email. “Professionally, it will be a bit tougher because I will be leaving daily television news behind. I will miss telling stories about people who are a lot closer to us than we sometimes realize.”

Grubs will take his next steps in the television business behind the camera, producing programming for a PBS station in New Mexico. He has been at KDFW since 2008, where his reports have been a staple on the Fox O&O’s 9 p.m.newscasts. Grubs will officially depart from KDFW later this summer.
