Sam Rubin, Veteran Hollywood Entertainment Reporter, Dies at 64

Sam Rubin, one of the most recognizable and likable entertainment reporters in the business and a fixture on the KTLA Morning News since 1991, died May 10 at age 64. KTLA Morning News anchor Frank Buckley confirmed the news on the air early Friday afternoon, his voice trembling and fighting back tears as he spoke about the death of his friend and co-worker. “Our hearts, as you can imagine, are broken,” Buckley said. “Quite simply, Sam was KTLA.

To all of us he shared his mornings with on television and to those he worked with behind the scenes at KTLA, we will not forget him.”...
