Sports anchor Vic Lombardi leaving CBS4?

Amiable CBS4 sports anchor Vic Lombardi is leaving the station, where he’s worked since 1998, for an undetermined position with Altitude Sports, the Stan Kroenke-owned network, according to The Denver Post.

Lombardi, an Emmy Award-winning sportscaster, is expected to sign a contract with Altitude, which broadcasts Kronke-owned pro teams basketball’s the Denver Nuggets, hockey’s Colorado Avalanche, soccer’s Colorado Rapids and the Colorado Mammoth lacrosse team, according to the story.

The Post reports that Lombardi’s hire “will give Altitude…a push as it expands its local programming.” Lombardi’s contract with CBS4 is due to expire at the end of this year.
