Pat Kiernan’s career in broadcast journalism began while he was attending the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Business in Edmonton, Canada. “I was offered a weekend job at 96K-Lite FM,” he explains. “It was a ‘lite rock’ station that didn’t want to devote much airtime to news, so my hourly updates were supposed to be 96 seconds long. I learned a lot about writing newscasts that get straight to the point.”

Pat moved to New York in March of 1996. He joined the Time Warner family as the anchor and producer of the Fortune Business Report, and was named NY1’s morning anchor in 1997.
