DESPITE ALL THE NOISE out there about the industry being upended, Paul Karpowicz remains one of local TV's biggest boosters. "I think the future for broadcasting remains very bright," said the president of Meredith's Local Media Group. Just as noteworthy: Karpowicz is utterly sincere in the declaration. The 2017 Golden Mike Award honoree is, after all, a broadcasting guy through-and-through—a-family trait he picked up from his dad, Ray, the Missouri Broadcasters Hall of Famer who ran St. Louis NBC affiliate KSDK and later the Pulitzer station group.
