‘Talk of the City’ host announced
From a Times staff writer
Patt Morrison, a longtime reporter and columnist for The Times, was named Friday to take over as host of the weekday public-affairs series “Talk of the City” at KPCC-FM (89.3). She will continue writing for The Times.
Morrison has considerable broadcast experience, having previously hosted “Life & Times” at KCET-TV and filled in frequently as a guest host on KPCC’s “Air Talk.” She’ll begin April 10 on “Talk of the City,” which airs weekdays at 2 p.m.
Morrison replaces Kitty Felde, who had hosted the show for five years but was bounced by KPCC management earlier this month. She is now a special correspondent for the Pasadena-based public-radio station.
