I would have put him a close second after Jim Giles.  Slater helped pioneer the use of live streaming video from moving vehicles to track storms (which everyone else has since copied).

With the possible exception of certain parties on Fox23 news, I can see how 2,6, and 8 could stand a little overhauling when it comes to their on-air news personalities-and I've only been back to Tulsa for about 6 months!

Oh and you monitor local news stations from Columbus, Ohio.  You have no earthly idea what he was like.   Other than he was not a hot chick.  

This just points up you ignorance.  [|)]

We have a Cliffy here from Cheer's, just likes to hear his head rattle..... [V]

Well as a long time weather aficianado this blows.  I always watched his evening broadcast and he was one of the few that would analyze the model data as it came in and give you the latest update at the end of the show.  Somethign the other three RARELY if ever do :(

Well maybe Fox will rehire him at double his salary or something, I dunno...but thats really crappy.  :(

I love how you all run at the mouth about things you have no clue about. I work for Fox23 Im one of their stormchasers and John Slater wasnt fired nor did he get suspended for breaking in on american idol. The real reason John Slater no long works at fox 23 is because he didnt break in over american idol as soon as the tornado warning was issued in extreme southeren tulsa county he wait 35 seconds till the commerical to do a cut in. and managment got mad and suspended him for 3 days when he was to come back he turned in his stuff and quit. and that is the real reason John Slater is no longer with Fox 23 pual haggan is going to be the new cheif soon. And as for channel 2 hahahaha they are jokes i used to work there has anyone ever heard of stormchaser Adam McAdoo well thats me i now work at fox23.

You were doing fine and professional enough until that last sentence. Jon is probably the most skillful  meteorologist in Oklahoma. Fox23 lost a good one. Seems most everyone else are readers and repeaters.

I like how you assume that you are the highest authority and no-one on this thread works there or knows Jon.. which has no "H" in it.
