Summary

Former KCRA sports reporter, current KOVR meteorologist, Playboy Playmate and Emmy Award winner, Kristine Hanson shares stories of being a woman in early sports reporting,  Sacramento history and her experience with Playboy.  For Sacramentans, the discussion touches on the heyday of news coverage in the market and some great conversation about  the market's legendary broadcasting community.  A pioneer in her own right, Kristine was one of the early female reporters to challenge the status quo of men only in sports coverage.  A remarkable woman and a wonderful discussion is what you're in for as I speak with a friend, a colleague and a local legend.   Learn more about your ad choices.
