Wendy's Final Broadcast

Last week, I shared the spot for our main anchor's final newscast. Here were the ratings results:

7.83 rating/14 share

Our average during the book at 6pm was a 4.6/8 share

Our local paper's television critic kept writing about how we were overdoing it... but in the end, we got eyeballs to the tube.

And I will say it again... Wendy is a class act and will be missed at WESH. Here, in case you missed it - is her final promo:



You can also see part of her last newscast here, which includes a piece our department did to say goodbye. Look for the poem at the end of the clip. My boss Suzanne and our Senior Producer Kip did an amazing job on this.
