Who's the new guy who replaced Larry Elliott on WJRT's morning newscast?
IMO, he's underwhelming... just another boring white guy (this assessment coming from a fellow boring white guy.) I'm surprised Veto-Hodak didn't go in a different direction: like make an all female anchor team (beating 5 at its failed experiment with Simnitch-Holland)... or finding someone with experience or diversity (like 25-66's Woolfolk-Spence-Bajjey combo).

New ABC12 Morning Anchor
Re: New ABC12 Morning Anchor
Do you really need 2 anchors to read news at 430am? Waste of resources IMO. The same with noon.autolab wrote: ↑Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:10 am Who's the new guy who replaced Larry Elliott on WJRT's morning newscast?

ABC 12 tends to hire people who will go nowhere.
