Lanesey's last post was at Tribune Broadcasting The CW outlet KPLR St. Louis. He departed in mid September when KPLR and Local TV's KTVI announced that they would both work out of KPLR headquarters and share resources, and KTVI boss Spencer Koch was given overseeing duties at both stations. Lanesey ran KPLR for 10 years.
