What Others Are Saying About Tracy

"I always enjoy being interviewed by Tracy. She has a keen way to get to the heart of the story. Plus she is very professional and very easy to talk to."
Jason Gage, Salina City Manager

"Tracy’s tenacity always impressed me. She always did what it takes to get the story, even if it took a little ingenuity. We did everything from standing together outside a murder scene at 4:00 in the morning, to driving off-road through a bumpy pasture to get to an airplane crash out in the middle of no-where, to sitting in a classroom being mesmerized along with a group of children as a holocaust survivor spoke."
Todd Pittenger, KSAL News Radio News Director

"If I could describe Tracy in five words, it would be "consummate professional; incredible work ethic". If KCTU is one of the most respected LPTV stations in the country today (or so I've been told a time or two), Tracy is a big reason why. She was a block of granite on which we built a solid operation... and it's been the same thing everywhere she's been. She is a quiet leader in the newsroom; a dedicated, focused reporter on the beat, and one of the best friends I've ever had the pleasure--no, the honor--of working with."
R.J. Dickens, News Director, Program Director, Creative Services Director, Lead anchor and a talk show host at KCTU-TV

"I always enjoyed watching Tracy on my local channel. (KWCH12) When she interviewed me she was a delight to talk to, she genuineley cared. I am sorry I don't get to see her any more on my local station. She was an asset to channel 12. I can tell this woman will be a GREAT anchor, too bad little Salina could not support her. I will watch her wherever she goes."
Craig Deghand, Viewer

"We have had a tremendous response to having Tracy Crockett in our commercials. She is a true professional and her appeal is universal. I recommend her to anyone looking to get out their message."
Derek Lee, General Manager Long McArthur Ford Lincoln Mercury, Salina,Ks

"Tracy is an excellent reporter who never shys away from a tough story. Whenever something happened in Salina, Tracy Crockett was there. I admire her as a professional colleague and enjoyed working with her."
Erin Matthews, Salina Journal Reporter

"I really miss having Tracy around here. She was a a great asset to the community in so many ways. As a reporter, I trusted her to make sure the story was accurate. She was also a positive person and almost always cheerful. And a GREAT Girl Scout leader! The girls all loved Tracy and it was obvious she loved them as well. Tracy had great projects planned for them and always followed through. I appreciate all that she did and wish she was still around."
Nancy Pennington, Executive Director Adair County United Way & Former Girl Scout Co-Leader

“We knew that we could always count on Tracy to get the story right for Salina. She was very good to ask the important questions to capture the most important aspect of our news. Tracy is very professional in her approach to gathering and reporting information.”
Dennis Lauver, President & CEO Salina Area Chamber of Commerce
