CKNX Story Comes To A Close

For 43 years CKNX's Ray Baynton has been part of the newsroom.

He was hired in 1973 as farm editor. In 1976 he was promoted to news director, a position he held for over 30 years.

Today, he marks his final day at CKNX.

He says over the years, there were a number of changes that kept him focused.

Baynton says he would not change anything because every situation was a learning experience.
