Kamady Rudd Leaves WZZM

Unread post by Localnewsisdead »

Another one bites the dust at WZZM as morning anchor Kamady Rudd has announced that Friday was her last day at the station. Here is what she had to say on facebook about her departure...

Unfortunately my last day at WZZM was Friday. I love the West Michigan community so much and appreciate all of you embracing my family and me almost 4 years ago. I cherish all the friendships I’ve made and am so thankful to carry them with me always.

We will still be around West Michigan so please still say hello when we’re out and about - keeping social distancing in mind, of course.

Also, I will still be posting an annoying amount of photos of Reagan while my family navigates through this unexpected change.

As always I’m sending everyone my love!

We know Alana Nehring and Aaron Ofseyer both left WZZM (and Tenga) on their own with Aaron's FB post making it sound like management was a big factor in his decision to leave. Kamady's FB post makes it sound like she was terminated.

Wonder how long before George, Juliet and Catherine are shown the door.

I wouldn't be surprised if Fox17 is number 3 TV station wouldn't know that for sure since West Michigan isn't a meter TV market.
