Ed Arnold Is Latest to Be Released by KABC-TV

KABC-TV, which fired about 50 employees last Friday, laid off sportscaster Ed Arnold Tuesday. Arnold had been at the station for 11 years.

The firings were part of a series of budget-cutting moves at ABC-owned stations nationwide by the network’s new owners, Capital Cities Communications. Reportedly, as many as 30 or 40 more people might be fired at KABC, which had 350 employees before Friday.
